EX1 35mm Adapter Shoot

[philip bloom]

1: don't be religious about f4. I shoot wide open A LOT. f2.8 will work pretty well. You using CF1L?

2: Yep

3:sure

4L most important part until there is an ex1 fix, that is a new achromat. The only way to get perfect edge to edge with this camera

The loss of sharpness from edge to edge in some of my shots is strange. I did not have this problem on earlier shoots. Perhaps it's because I had my iris opened too much on the EX1. The only other thing that is different this time is that I zoomed in more. Could that cause sharpness issues?

I shot everything last time with the 35mm lens wide open. I went to f4 this time because someone complained the the bokeh looked bad. Could closing down the 35mm aperture cause sharpness issues?

I don't mean to keep asking the same questions, I just want to nail this the next time I shoot.

Really nice footage. I'd say this is my favorite ex1 footage you've shot.I love the warm colors. Really sharp too. I do believe you achieved the edge to edgde that you were striving for. I think this deserves it's own thread. Any CC? Care to share your settings?

I do believe you just sold me an EX1 :beer: (when in a better financial position, anyway.)

Looking forward to more.
