BJDrew Posted February 14, 2012 Share #1 Posted February 14, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) I'm in love, folks. My IIIf + Summiron f/1.5 finally came back from DAG (only 8 months!) It's an amazing piece of craftsmanship, photographic heritage... and a real pleasure to use! For valentine's day, I put together a little "camera porn" video to ignite the passion in our hearts: [ATTACH]300494[/ATTACH] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wizard Posted February 14, 2012 Share #5 Posted February 14, 2012 Well done! I bet they did not have such a good 'sales' video when they actually sold the camera back then. Andy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BJDrew Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share #8 Posted February 16, 2012 What did you use to shoot the video? Vid was shot with a Canon 5d Mark II and the fairly inexpensive 35mm f/2 lens. too bad I didn't have my NEX 7 with adapter yet - would be epic to shoot a Leica fan video using a leica lens.

Double Negative Posted February 16, 2012 Share #9 Posted February 16, 2012 That 35mm f/2 is one of Canon's most unsung heroes... I shot with that bad boy for years when I first went digital. Sure it's "old school" and "buzzy" but it's decent optically. Just watch the five-bladed aperture re:boheh. It was cheap (like the "Nifty Fifty") and worked better on a 1.6x crop.
