Super sick! Image was so crisp and I liked the video in general. I wish the midtones were brought up a little bit though, seemed a little dull, even though i think you were going for that look, but it was kind of hard to see. Other than that so sick and i might have to invest into EF glass and that speedbooster!

Thanks man! I appreciate that.. You're right that I WAS going for that dark "almost" hard to see look, I actually have another version of the indentical edit, with the mid tones brought up a little bit lol, but I made an artistic decision to keep darker and lifeless (with purpose to give it life 😜). My opinion, DEFINITELY invest in the Speedbooster and EF Glass. It's helped greatly in low light and getting more shallow depth of field. It has yielded better results for me personally overall than any native MFT glass I own, including the Veydra Cinema Primes etc.
 
What church let you film this in their sanctuary?! I wanna become a member!

Hahahaha.. Let's just say it was a very "well known" church on Brickell Ave in downtown Miami.. Lol it didn't come without a pretty hefty price tag though, they charged $1,100 for 5 hours of use.. Business is business, and remember- LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION. :P
 
Any vignetting on the Sigma 18-35 with the Speedbooster XL? Also did you shoot in 4K?

Yes, there is definitely a bit of vignetting between 18-22mm when shootin in 1080p! It's subtle enough to use artistically if wanted, but otherwise it's gone once you get up to about 22mm and above. For this particular video I didn't shoot anything in 4k due to the fact that I needed to have the option for slow mo on any given shot. So this was entirely shot in 1080p60 100mps. And I actually shot with the Natural Picture Style, not either of the CineLike profiles.
