006 – How I Made the Leap


Listen Later

In this episode I dive my comic book origin story. This is how I made the leap into the film business. Now for me what that means is not just owning a camera or taking pictures and getting paid, but actually working on a set with dozens of crew members, bright lights, the whole nine.

A bit of follow up:

I mentioned previously that the micro 4/3 lens mount was easily adaptable. It's one of the most versatile mounts out there, but I would be remiss if I didn't mention Sony E-mount.

Here are the most popular lens mount systems in order from smallest flange distance to largest.

* Sony E - 18mm
* MFT - 19.25mm
* Canon EF - 44mm
* Nikon F - 46.5mm
* PL - 52mm
* What this means is the sony BODY can adapt the most lenses to it. PL cameras can only have PL lenses. While the PL lens can adapt the most bodies. Basically this means that sony e mount lenses will only ever work for sony e mount cameras. PL lenses can be adapted to anything.
* Adapting a lens "up" on a camera means the image circle will be larger than the sensor, so you have light spilling outside the sensor. Image the sensor is cropping the image, causing the output to seem more zoomed in.
* This is where Metabones speed boosters come into play.
