Hey Frank, I was looking at what I think is the lens you were talking about....
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/769571-REG/Rokinon_RK35M_S_35mm_f_1_4_Wide_Angle_US.html

Is this it? It says it's for Sony but I'm thinking that's NOT for the FS100 (even though a reviewer says he's using it on his FS100)
I don't think that's an emount is it?

Yes that´s the lens, but mine has a Nikon mount,
so I´m using it with the same Nikon > E-Mount adapter as my other Nikon primes.

The one from your link has a Sony Alpha/Minolta AF mount. So you also would need an adapter.

But it probably is focusing in the opposite direction…
A mix of Nikon and other lenses would drive me mad¡

Thanks, I also have a few Nikons so I think I'll be getting this in a nikon mount also. (2 more weeks till budget release!!!!)

I can switch between those lenses pretty quick (and so does my AC1), so it´s not a deal breaker for me.

PS Love the colors on that bit. almost a "Saving Private Ryan" without the contrast.

Exactly that was the plan :cheesy: Glad that someone realized it.

Hi Frank,

Your footage looks great. I'm interested in using your GlenColor settings for run&gun documentary, especially the one that you can use to blowout your highlights. Can you give some more input regarding how to perform step 3 in your workflow, dialing down your blacklevel. How do you do that, I mean when do you know your blacks are at zero. I work the FS100 without a monitor in the field...

I have a TVLogic monitor with waveform - without that it´s hard to do.
It´s the best investment I ever made in camera gear - helps a lot, also the range error option to nail your skin tones.
The histogram in the camera is not really ideal to work with.

Sorry, I guess I´m not much help here.
