Sony ZV-E1 cinematic footage | Lisbon at dawn

Decided to wake up very early to go check out Lisbon at sunrise and without tourists around. The historic city centre of Lisbon is always packed with so many people, but fortunately not at dawn!

Everything was shot on the Sony ZV-E1 and Leica R 15mm f/3.5 (except for one clip shot on the 35mm). As much as I love this lens on my Ursa Mini Pro 12K and BMPCC6K, on this full frame Sony sensor is not perfect. Could be the adapter, but I had very hard time having all the image in focus. Sometimes the center of the image was blurred, sometimes it was sharp. I also noticed some distortion happening, but that's just probably the result of a 15mm lens on a full frame camera. That's why I love S35 sensors so much, because you can use these kind of lenses without any issues. Lastly, the standard image stabilization was terrible and the footage was super wobbling. Unfortunately I had to use it because it was super windy and being the camera so lightweight, everything was very shaky. But even with the image stabilization on, the footage was not usable. I had to stabilize every single clip in Resolve and thankfully it worked great!

Anyhow, I am pretty happy with the footage I was able to capture and I loved the super wide field of view.

Edited and graded in DaVinci Resolve 18.5 using BUTTERY LUTs.
