What I Learned After a Year of Using Vintage Lenses For Filmmaking and Why You Need Them!

In this episode I want to share my experience with vintage lenses after a year of using them for filmmaking. Showcase the results I was able to achieve and point out some pros and cons. As well as image quality, character, performance, affordability, some common problems, and lens servicing.

For the past year I have used and tasted around 20 vintage lenses and built 3 sets of Carl Zeiss Jena, Contax Zeiss, and Canon FD. You can find the links down below. (They're Awesome!)

We will also discus some vintage lenses that were used in Dune 2 and Army of the Dead movies, and what makes them special.

Hopefully, this information will help you decide if it is worth for you to invest your money and time in vintage lenses.
