The newly announced MicroPrime X-Mount Lenses from SLR Magic are already being sold (see our news post here), and as we got A LOT of requests from colleagues and people from our filming community to test and review them, we decided to go a head and do so. Although this review covers the X-Mount version of SLR Magic’s MicroPrime Cine lenses, similar products with E and MFT mount options are available, too. For the complete list of lenses (and mounts), please take a look at the chart further below. SLR Magic MicroPrime Cine set – 12, 15, 18, 25, 35, 50, 75mm It’s the middle of March when Nino and I have concluded to go on a very short trip to N.Y.. As we wanted to maximise our productivity during the stay, we’ve managed to “squeeze in” a quick review. The original plan was to concentrate and review the FUJIFILM X-T30, but as we had exactly 4 hours blank to shoot the above story before rushing to the airport, we made the quick decision to “join forces”, use the FUJIFILM X-T3 as an additional camera and shoot this piece solely on SLR Magic MicroPrime X-Mount lenses, which we had brought with us. At the office, we have the entire set (12mm, 15mm, 18mm, 25mm, 35mm, 50mm, 75mm), but for that particular journey, we took only 3 lenses with us (12mm T2.8, 35mm T1.3, 75mm T1.5), as our packing space was very limited. I still hope to conduct a complete and separate review...
