The price on these is pretty excellent, I would think that these paired with an R50 would make a great budget kit for videography.

I got both of these lens to use with my FX30. They're great on this camera and are easy to focus and adjust for great exposure too!

I’m pretty sure you can crop a full frame 16:9 video to 4:3 and use the full image circle since that 4:3 crop ends up being about the same size as super 35mm motion picture film.

I’ll be the first to comment. Excellent review James. You might have sold me.

Wow, I was just in Paris shooting almost everything with my R7 + RF 24mm 1.8 combo. The 24 would just be too tight sometimes especially indoors or in cramped touristy spots so that 16mm would have been great to have! Other than 3rd party af lenses that 16mm is probably next on my R7 dream lens list

2:35 it's surprising that at 16mm, you still get amazing bokeh with this cine lens

Hey brother, would you like to tell me that which profile you used in photography and whats the settings plzzz.
I really love the Images you taken....
Love from India.

Can you make a short video with all 5 of this lens with c70

[SammyC]

so if i was only going to buy 2 lens, for arty and music videos, which of the 5 would you recommend? on a M43 camera! thanks

[matthieuionesco]

Hey great video! Is there any vignetting on the 16mm? Shooting on red btw.

[PizzlesTechTime]

So I have a Canon R5C and a micro 4/3 GH5... I saw RF Mount and got really excited in ordered. Now I am finding out that I have to use it in crop mode on RF mount. I really wish I would have got them for MFT... Now I don't know what to do as I just placed the order yesterday and it already shipped

[OlympiaMortgageLender]

If you had to pick 2 or 3 for using eith a canon r7. Which would you pick? 16 and 75 for sure... but what about between 24 vs 35?

[pcoussa]

Would you use this to shoot video for youtube?

[liamphanmusic]

sorry but what is the point of showing a heavily graded shot when we want to see the glass performances ?

[curation]

I'm wondering, I have an A7mkIV would the 16 mm work on it? or would the edges be messed up? I'm really interested, but idk if its just for APSC sensor.
