Ultimate Vintage Lens Test

[K. Agarwal]

I had the pleasure of working on an amazing series of lens tests. Over 40 unique lenses including Master Primes, Kowa Anamorphics, and many more! Tests were run by Mark LaFleur & Brent Barbano in collaboration with ShareGrid

very cool, wish a set of contax were included to compare/contrast w/ super-speeds

 

[Marcel Zyskind]

This is extensive work! Well done. Any chance of higher res than youtube 1080p?

 

[Tim Daust]

just incredible - the amount of time/effort/gear this took.

Weekend booked in!

 

[Sean Keen]

Great job !!!!!!

 

[K. Agarwal]

I'm glad you all found this resource beneficial. If enough people request it, there may be a round two with other top lenses...

 

[Tommaso Alvisi]

Yeah please do that!

Please add Standard Speeds and Zeiss C/Y lenses!

Maybe even Ultra Primes and Cooke S4/i as a reference...

The second test of these is more than likely going to be focusing on vintage anamorphic. Happy to jump back into a round two on these. Thanks again for your help on the test Krishan.
