This was my first outing with my new DIY35mm DOF adapter, only 200 bucks, it's awesome! I used a 35mm f2 Nikon lens and my Canon HV30. The color profiles are from Magic Bullet Looks. Got the adapter just before I left for vacation.

Amazing as usual Richard,
you just keep getting better and better man.

I hope you get some kind of movie deal soon,
I do see it in your future.

Finally I can use my old Nikon lenses. And they are really nice manual focus lenses, with phat front elements, too.

Now, where to find a similar rig like this for the Sony A1U?

I feel like I am flipping through an old album, the music is great, the images or frames can stand on their own. These would be great as fine art prints on the walls.

Nice Job!

Towle Neu d/b/a Tallgrass Films 1 year ago

is the vignetting caused by the adapter or did you add it in post?
Dan 1 year ago

I was so in awe about this video a few weeks ago (and still am), that it really gave my passion for film a new boost. My own adapter is on it's way!

Is the vignette an artifact of the lens modification?

I like it but I was wondering if its something you added.

this is first example of virtual super8 look...awesome.

This video, more than any other on Vimeo, has convinced me I need to get a Twoneil adapter. Not that the other Twoneil videos weren't good, but this one struck me as particularly demonstrative of the adapter's possibilities.

A question for the community, if I may: does anyone what would happen if I used THIS lens with the Twoneil adapter:

I love the fact that we dont have to have incredible budgets to now make "films" of incredible quality and beauty. Its one of those "inventions", ideas, that gives us the "proletariat" a chance.
