Sample video footage w Voigtlander 35 mm F1.4


Hi! Its a nice video and while I dont shoot videos, I have been using voigtlander for a while. The voightlander nokton is a rangefinder lens, and the focus throw of the lens is v short which made it hard for u to adjust focus esp when you are moving the slider. (if u look at the 2,3,5 and infinity markings the distance on the focus ring is extremely tight. I believe it was designed to allow for quick street shooting). So u may wanna consider other alt for the 35mm for video purpose (my two cents)

Can I ask what accessory did you use to record the VO and bg ambient sounds?

I see. Thanks for the sharing.

I used a Seinheisser G3 clip on mic for the interview. For the waves, it's the onboard mic from camera. :)
