Micro Four Thirds WISHES This Full Frame Lens Didn't Exist

We got a purchase announcement :) Exciting times. A lens so light and magical, micro four thirds can't compete in this focal range. Zeiss magic, while we answer photographers questions. What's the best Fuji camera, what can OM System do to survive and stand out? Any reason to get the Sony A7S III over the ZVE1? Zeiss 35mm f2.8 review in 2023. One of the lightest full frame lenses and it's a ZEISS! Not some cheap Samyang :)

If you buy today's gear through my affiliate links, you'll forget you're even carrying a camera and probably lose all your muscle due to the lightness of this full frame setup.

Great job on the video Kasey! Thanks for making it.

I just switched to Olympus after 20 years of shooting with Canon (APS-C). It was the 12-100mm F/4 IS Pro lens that made me do it. 24-200mm full frame range with a constant aperture of f/4, razor sharp quality and the best IBIS + OIS you can get... it almost sounded too good to be true. I do mainly travel photography (city, street, landscape, architecture) and basically replaces everything I had to take take with my 70D (Tokina 11-16 F2.8, Canon 24-105 F4, Canon 70-200 F4). Sure, a bit less bokeh... but more versatility.

Olympus is highly underrated. The OM-1 and E-M1iii for photography are amazing... never thought such small cameras could deliver so much punch... for way less money. Pound for pound, I don't think you get better value than this.

This Zeiss was my latest purchase too. I've been buying up all the Zeiss I can afford for the E-mount, incase Zeiss decide to leave and return to their home world. The 35/2.8 has quite the breathing problem, so avoid smoking near it.

00:37 What people don't realise is that a lens is ALWAYS in focus — it's just that the focal plane may not necessarily coincide with the intended subject matter.

I like how the zeiss makes the retro microphone shine 😅

In the seventies, eighties and nineties, Carl Zeiss optics were noticeably better than most other optics, but somehow they continue to deliver on pure placebo to this day.

“Manually do stuff for your mom”…HILARIOUS!!!

I am still using Olympus for my photography. Just love it. No handshake needed. 😂 OM-1 AF is very precise and mostly just needs getting used to it. I indeed hope they do some serious R&D still, not so promising lately. But I have enough good old Oly hardware to keep it going for some years now, even if they went out of business today. The Zeiss footage looks very good indeed, seems to be a keeper!

That vlog footage was absolutely majestic.

"
Shoulder Detect" !!! 🤣🤣🤣

I bought an LCD eye cup for ZVE1 to use like an EVF, and took it out for squirrel footage at 120 fps. I was delighted. The photos are so vibrant, too.

Zeiss 3d pop was ours! Looks great, but a bit shaky on the vlog side, have to see more! Great lens find and worth every Canadian penny you spent!

Hard to not like these tiny full frame lenses but I still love the Panasonic Leica 15mm T1.7 Now only if Panasonic or Olympus would make a full featured tiny camera to pair with it

If you didn’t have a camera system, but had former photographer experience and wanted to get into the Sony system, would you go A7C II or ZV-E1? I want to do a mix of still and video/vlogging when traveling. I feel like the 12 MP in the ZV-E1 wouldn’t do the still photography justice.

Big fan, but feeling sorry for the guy called out for thanking you for making the videos. He's probably a fan who keeps hearing how lots of comments help the algorithm for the channel. Maybe you should thank him for thanking you and you guys can keep going back and forth that way till Christmas.

hey could you make a whole episode of camera conspiracies as an old silent movie? with fast fps and slo mos :D. the c100 part reminds me of it

Casey is marketers marketer - he is always hopeful but never satisfied and always on a hunt. Perfection!

Kick butt lens dude, Me needs to get a rig that will take the Zeiss lens eco system.

😂 I'm just waiting for the comments in the dpreview MFT forum 😂
