Dear Ghosts,

For the camera nerds I have included my small emblem at the bottom right of the screen in case you want to know which camera was used for which scene. I only swapped cameras for the junkyard scene. Red is the BMCC6kFF and pink is the Sigma FP. Everything except macro was shot on the Milvus 35mm.

I've been receiving a lot of comments about lens recommendations and i hope this video can answer some of those questions. The Milvus 35mm f1.4 is very impressive and my recommended lens for anyone that wants an image comparable to mine but doesn't want to spend the cash for an Otus. Mind you I havent received any free products (yet) and everything I have posted up to this point is my honest opinion. The lens is similar to the Zeiss Otus 28mm, but they are not the same. I would guess the lens is about 200-400k cooler, less contrast, less color accurate, and less 3d pop. Very slight. Color accuracy is the most valuable asset for me especially because i prefer naturalistic grades, however I would still totally use this lens because i prefer 35mm over 28mm. My favorite focal length is 40mm. This is a high value long term lens, and the best overall value to performance ratio in my opinion, can buy used for 800-1200 USD easily.

Spend wisely.

Love,
CleverG
