Black Magic Studio Camera Lens
Posted: Thu Aug 10, 2017 3:17 pm
Hi all,
There has been a lot of talk as I've searched this forum on the correct MFT lenses for the Black Magic Studio Camera, but a lot of that talk has involved the ability to remote shade the cameras (which I understand a lot of you do). I'm looking for the correct lens for a fairly simple green screen studio setup. The camera will have a competent operator who can focus, zoom, iris the camera during setup. And the camera will be about 15 feet away from the talent who I'll be shooting from about the waist up.
Pretty basic and nothing fancy, and I'll light it properly, so I'm looking for the right lens to shoot it with that will give me good green screen performance and probably the ability to zoom out to a two shot live (which I understand is not something all these MFT lenses can do).
One of my vendors suggested the Veydra V1-35T22M43I Mini Prime Lens 35mm T2.2 MFT Mount - Imperial Focus Scale.
I've never heard of Veydra lenses, so I wanted to see if anyone had any experience with them or had a better suggestion.
Thanks!
Mike Bieke
