Sony FX3 + Great Joy 50mm 1.8x Anamorphic Lens
The Sony FX3 continues to impress me as I get to know it. It is an incredible camera. To be able to bring it anywhere, walk around, and get cinematic footage is really fun. The sensor quality is great, the low light capabilities are amazing, and I am beginning to really like the looks that slog3 can provide. The great joy 50mm anamorphic lens paired well with the FX3. This video was shot at T2.9 and the sides were cropped to 2.39:1 with a final image that is 5162x2160 if stretched horizontally. The 50mm 1.8x lens has barrel distortion on the top and bottom and pincushion distortion on the sides. For this video I did not correct the sides, but the barrel distortion is more prevalent on a taller sensor like the Alexa mini LF. On the LF I correct the pincushion on the sides in adobe after effects.
ITALY:
Italy is my favorite place. I have been fortunate enough to explore a lot of it. For this trip we went to Venice, lake como, and Milan, all very cinematic and amazing places. Venice is, as mentioned in the video, like a dream. No cars, quiet, and a never ending maze (I can now get around without a map, which I’m proud of). Lake como is beautiful. I did not film in Milan, but it is a cool place. If you get the chance, go to Italy.
Okay that’s all for now ✌️
