Практические советы по выбору линз для BMPCC 4K
“An amazing lend. In over 40 years of industrial and feature film making, the Irix primes are my favorite series of prime lenses, favored over the big name lenses that cost 4-5x. They are fast, sharp, have very natural-looking out-of-focus highlights, and the sealing is a bonus for those like us, who shoot a lot of exteriors.”
“Excellent affordable cine lens that I’m using on a full frame beast of a camera! Quality optics and build. Light for a cine prime, and easy to use. Works well on our RED Komodo. Smooth focus and aperture rings. The magnetic filter system is quick and easy.”
“The focus throw is smooth and long, and there is little breathing between short distances or between long distances (although, as expected, if you pull from a couple inches away to infinity, there is a transition where it breathes heavily). I love it.”
“Focus breathing varies between the lenses but minimally and I'm quite happy with them. This lens works as advertised. I love the lens. It is beautifully crafted and sturdy. The weight of the lens will take a bit of getting used to so I don't suggest using it without mentally preparing for the weight or having a stand if you don't want to hold it.”
“Two things came to mind when I opened it. The sheer weight. It's a heavy lens. That 'run&gun' shooting is next to impossible. The build quality. This lens is sturdy. Beautiful to look at if you are into aesthetics.”
“There is no image stabilization but that is to be expected; however, the smooth focus and aperture are amazing. They allow for a really really precise image whether photo or video.”
“Roughly $1,200.. Inexpensive. I've been renting cine lenses for years for some of our bigger projects but never pulled the trigger on getting one. But this lens comes at a great price (paid $1,200) which in early 2020, happens to be cheaper than the Xeen primes.”
“Not to mention Canon, Sigma, Zeiss CPs and the rest. -- I've shot a few test shots and the 45 looks very sharp and smooth with no noticeable CA. Focus throw is 180 and the overall feel is solid! This lens is truly a gem. Superb craftsmanship, sharpness and color rendition.”
“This is a robustly-constructed cine lens which is nevertheless compact and lightweight. It delivers high-quality and consistent images with minimal distortion or aberrations. And its aperture is constant along the focal range. It's made of premium-quality optical components, so the image quality is outstanding.”
“One cool feature is the interchangeable lens mount. This is especially important if your native MFT lens has autofocus or integrated control like aperture adjustment or image stabilisation.”

Технические детали и эксплуатационные моменты
“The front element does extend out beyond the lens a bit, but in my 3 stage matte box I can still fit a single filter in front of it - and that type of element is necessary for an 11mm full frame lens.”
“The IRIX 150mm is an excellent choice for those looking to capture highly detailed, true-to-life close-ups. Its magnification ratio means you can get incredibly close to your subjects, rendering them in life-size on the screen, which is perfect for both professional and creative projects. The T3.0 aperture ensures that you have flexibility with light, working well in both bright outdoor settings and more controlled indoor environments.”
“The IRIX 15mm and the 45mm as a set provide excellent image quality, sharpness, smooth focus and robust sealing-essential for exteriors and challenging shoots.”
