SLR Magic Anamorphot 1,33x – 40
Looks dope, sorta faux square front anamorphic and price is right... all depends on the quality of the results. Not sure if it's going to differ much from the previous SLR Magic Anamorphot 1,33x - 40 that didn't really seem that much of a …

15mm F2.4 Irix lens and 15mm T2.6 Irix Cine Lens
Interesting. We already have Kipon that hint to German engineering with their BAVEyes focal reducers (not that great it seems https://translate.google.com/translate?depth=1&hl=en&rurl=translate.google.com&sl=ja&tl=en&u=http://dc.…

Samsung: Story of Idiots
Yes, Samsung thinks they know what people want. Like this fridge with a built-in camera... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkfYQdbayDc I agree... they might be idiots. If they go on like this all they've got left is smartphones. Until the Chi…

A $40 variable ND filter that surprisingly doesn't suck
Yeah, I initially went with the Fotga after reading about it on: http://cheesycam.com/fotga-variable-nd-fader-filter-sample/ . I mean, decent for the price, but nothing to write home about. Not a fan of the polarizing filter side effects of variabl…

BlackMagic Micro Cinema Camera for drone, $995
Yeah, I wouldn't mind something cagey, with a top handle and a side grip. To top it off with the Video Assist as camera interface to go through the menus (see att. what I had in mind). If anyone has some more info on actual availlability, keep…

FeelWorld 7" IPS 1280 x 800 broadcast field monitor
Ah! Gd points. :) Didn't know there was a rebranding game going on with that one. You always get us great deals, that's for sure. Talking about HDMI/SDI. I know that's going rather off topic, but would you happen to know of any nice …

Anyone had any experience with the Kipon Baveyes for M4/3 yet? Apparently the 'Bav' in 'Baveyes' stands for Bavaria (Bayern), Germany; where the optics are said to be designed by IB/E OPTICS (not that that rings any bells over h…

RJ Lens Turbo m43 adapters
I've gotten the Nikon (F/G) to M43 one, because the newschool Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 and Sigma ART 18-35mm f/1.8 give you a very nice ability to shoot wide and in somewhat lowlight conditions. Especially with the rather small crop sensor of the G…

RJ Lens Turbo m43 adapters
Ah! It took a while to get here. But in the end it was worth the wait. Own fault for wanting the free shipping (no import charges, yay!). Free shipping is not so quick. Easy peasy put together. Lens turns on smoothly; in turn the adapter attaches sm…
