RPP on 35mm music video

[NormLi]

Hey everyone.

Just finished shooting and grading a 35mm music video with my set of
RPP lenses. Also used a 12mm and 16mm ultraprime.

We were grading on the Da Vinci 2K in a large 1080p Sony CRT production monitor. I believe it was around 36" or so.

All I can say is HOLY sharp and crisp. These lenses performed beautifully on 35mm and looks fantastic. Flared nicely as well. The colorist was really blown away by the sharpness as well and did not have to apply any sharpening like he normally has to with superspeeds. The original contrast from RPP is nice too. They definitely behave similarly with S4's.

Love my lenses.

Norm

Hey Norm,

What stop were you usually shooting at? Wide open, or a stop or more down from that?

Hi Jim,

I actually shot a lot of between 1.8 to 2.8.
