In my neverending quest for the perfect lens, I found my way to the good folks at V35 Project and Northwest Camera Co. They're doing some really interesting and amazing things, and it has been a pleasure to meet them and play with their wares. They've got a really nice point of view, and I've really loved watching the evolution of this line. Check them out at v35project.com and nw-camera.com and youtube.com/@NorthwestCameraCo/videos

A followup from my earlier video here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cAUH5141fKo
This camera is a BIG deal to me, but not for the reasons most folks are excited about. For me its basically the endgame of cinema cameras, at least as I use them, and for the foreseeable future. On one hand, for the fee to upgrade you could make a lot of other choices about lighting gear, support/gaffer equipment, etc. But on the other hand, for me this is the last camera I will need for years, and I am HERE for it.
Keep in mind, your mileage may vary, and I may be a complete moron and wrong about everything I say here. So take with a grain of salt!
If you like these kinds of rants, feel free to subscribe, I have plenty more on the way as I work through the process of filming my first full-length feature.")
