GH2 gets WIDE from 6mm to 3.5mm !!!!


GH2 gets WIDE from 6mm to 3.5mm

This is a movie shot with three lenses, from 6mm to 3.5mm, which is 15mm to 9mm for micro 4/3 sensor (24X36 : 31mm to 18mm). 1st part with the 6mm (more info: http://vimeo.com/20766631), some shot with polaroid variable ND filter. Second part, same lens but with a Pixco 0.45X lens converter, found for 16€ on ebay, it's 40.5mm screw mount filter size lens is perfect for the Pentax. The third part is shot with a new lens I've found on Ebay for 46€, a C-mount Rainbow 3.5mm 1.6, perfect for the crop function ! It's very wide, little fish eye effect, but I have a little focus problem with my copy, so I have to closed the aperture, but not too much because it seems I have problem of intern dirts, that can be viewed in more closed apertures.
I like this 3.5mm Rainbow C-mount lens, it's fun and very wide. I hope you'll enjoy the shots.

Those lenses sure look like fun. I really enjoy your videos and your family; that little girl reminds me of my youngest grand-daughter. She is such a nice actress for you. I have a question about your videos. Do you use any kind of stabilizer, or are your videos all hand-held? I suppose the wider lenses do help to minimize shake if hand-held... Al

All the video is hand-held. Most of the scooter shots were taken from my bicycle.
 
Nice lenses you have there. I've been using the CCTV lenses from rainbow as well.
 
I like the look of the Rainbow lens, really fun and actually the lack of sharpness is a good thing in this case. Thanks for sharing

I thought the Gh2 Had no moire :huh:, that first shot with the camera pointing down at that escalator looks nasty.
 
Thanks sun. Which one did you test ?

The lens I used is a Rainbow H6X8MA-II, it was an electronic controlled unit but I removed the electric circuit and motors that moved the iris, zoom and focus so now its hand operated. Its Bokeh is amazing.
