  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Vazen has completed the full 28-40-65mm 3 lenses set and has started shipping.

So all three lenses cover the Komodo's full sensor height at 14.25mm (3240 pixels) ? I ask as these lenses come in MFT mounts and MFT image area is only 13mm high?

Yes. Vignetting free at Komodo 1.8X 4:3 anamorphic mode.
 
Every now and then, I come across YouTube videos posted on forums that I can't switch to full screen.

Is this a deliberate manipulation on the posters part? Is it the default from YouTube's snippet that needs to be changed by the poster (but they might not bother)?

What's up?

I guess its YT limiting this function. You will need to click the Youtube button to the video page to watch in full screen.
 
Hey Kevin are there any plans for additional mounts for these lenses? Would these work on an E-mount in Super 35 mode? I'm also curious about if something like a MFT to E-mount adapter such as the one I linked below would work.

Caution : it is NOT an adapter, it's a proper lense mount. (Sirui lenses have swappable lense mounts)
That being said, I think E-mount has a shorter flange distance than RF and MFT (18mm VS 20mm for RF and MFT) so IF the Vazen lenses have a swappable lense mount design that could be a thing BUT if not, that means an E-Mount version of those lenses would need a little more redesign work I guess.

Ah, not sure how I missed that. Thanks for clarifying!
 
Those lenses (except the 28mm) are giant. I can’t understand building this tiny camera out to be giant. Imo, it defeats the purpose of Komodo.
 
Can the 1.8x give you the 2.4:1 aspect, or is it just that extreme wide screen that leaves my monitors with 50% black area. Not a big fan of that epic wide stuff, but 2.4:1 is nice.
 
I have the 28mm RF mount and about to order the 85mm Full Frame 1.8. The 28 is small and ready and ideal for gimbal or steady. The 85mm i will use it in the EF mount coupled with the Canon Speedbooster and with the regular adapter so i get 2 focal lenghts from 1 lens. So 28mm RF and 85 FF EF for me....
 
Really can't compare 1.33x to 1.8x.... all lovely lenses but not the same class of anamorphic character.
