Rokinon Cine Primes on EPIC, first Impressions

[Patrick Tresch]

Hey Patrick, yep im pretty sure there was a link a few pages earlier about a screw on adaptor.


found it again: http://www.cordvision.com/lens-upgrades/

Thanks Dominik,

But what front thread do you have on that Lens?
Can you screw on an UV filter or does the front élément hinder it?

Thanks

Pat

I'll offer a beer to the one who finds the spot where the serial number of the Rokinon cine lens is written...

Pat

Did anyone jump at this yet? Aren't they engraved in the mount?

[Patrick Grossien]

Maybe yours is a stolen unit hehehe

I have the german version (walimex) of the 35 right here and there's a number on the mount facing towards the camera.

 

[Patrick Tresch]

Picture=proof

No proof = NO BEER!!! ;-)

Pat

 

[Patrick Grossien]

that's the only number I could find.

 

[Patrick Tresch]

YES! It is the serial number.

But my Rokinon Cine 35mm NIKON don't have it. :-(



But I'll send you a beer anyway!!!
PM me your adress. ;-)

And here is some 85mm prime footage.

ungraded outtakes from an advertising shoot for a sports apparel company I did earlier today, everything was shot on the 85mm at F2.8, 50fps - 5K - 7:1 and varying shutter from 1/100 to 1/400:

Funnily enough just came across this thread and noticed that I have the exact same set-up with lenses as you do in that picture. Same case, same layout of rokinon cine lenses, my canon 24-70 L series lens, label sticker on back of each lens cap, etc. Then I saw your name which topped it all off. A person I've worked with before mentioned you to me about a week ago, Kortney Olsen. I've been shooting her stuff down here in Melbourne and she told me your shooting her stuff up in Queensland! Such a small world!!!

Hi Dominik I have a question about your 85mm cine. I bought a Rokinon 85mm stills lens before they released the Cine version. I found that on this lens the focus is the stiffest of all of my lenses. I own a 35mm Rokinon Cine lens and the focus is very smooth. My question is on your 35mm and 85mm is the focus the same amount of resistence or is the 85 more stiff. I would hate to buy another Rokinon 85mm in cine version this time and find it is still a stiff focus but with follow focus gears.

 

[Kyle Dones]

My gears on 24, 35, 85 are all smooth. Not loose but smooth

 

[Dominik Muench]

HI Samir

in terms of built and focus tension my lenses all feel the same, very smooth and solid.

Did you guys see the new 16mm 2.0? Just came out, not cine unfortunately.

 

[Samir Patel]

Thanks Kyle and Dominik

Here is a link to some .r3d's I shot with the 24 at all t stops. Different exposure settings but tried to eye it. Not the best examples but not the worst. ISO 320.

i was rushed by the girlfriend...4th of July plans. Happy Holidays!

I like getting an extra stop compared to my Tokina. But I need the cine modded lens. I feel spoiled. Kinda. I'm sure the cine style is just around the corner. Wonder how vignetting is. We shall see

You are a bad influence.
