Looks great but I didn't see any gnomes!

 

[Terry VerHaar]

Gnomes can only be captured in 6K.

And FWIW, Gremlins can only be captured with an Alexa! ;-)

Does it cover 2K HD?

 

[Sean Lee]

That's beautiful.

8mm is heading into fisheye territory isn't it?

 

[felix p]

hi nick. cam + lens is on a shooting.
i will test it next week.
but i think it covers 2k hd.

cheers

 

[Nick Morrison]

That's beautiful.

8mm is heading into fisheye territory isn't it?

On 35mm yes, but on 16mm no.

On 16mm, this wide angle "feels" more like shooting on an btw 16-18mm on Super 35mm.

The design itself is not a fisheye - it's a rectilinear "distagon".

Remember, smaller negatives needed small focal lengths to capture every day imagery.

So a common s16mm set of Super Speeds is:
9.5mm
12mm
16mm
25mm

Where as s35mm Super Speeds are:
18mm
25mm
35mm
50mm
85mm

This is just a T2 wide angle for 16mm (not even s16), and is an 8mm prime.

A "fisheye" in s16 is more like a 5.9mm

Hope this helps!

What a beautiful piece!
I've got a bunch of old, nice S16 lenses we will try and shoot a music video with this weekend. This was really inspirational! Well done
I've heard some problems about shooting 2K and that something happens in the cropping process which makes the image not as sharp. Can you confirm this?
