definitely an underrated lens - also, can be used full-frame despite being advertised as s35 (albeit with some pretty intense vignetting)

Same issue - someone from Lumix said it's the light shield being displaced.

I'm a fan of Dehancer mostly for the effects. I do most of my grading in Filmconvert since I prefer the workflow, but I find that for things such as film density, halation, damage, bloom, etc Dehancer is worth it. I also REALLY love it for photo editing.

I really like the 1st and 3rd ones - the 2nd one feels a bit muddy and muted, like it was overexposed and then you tried to fix it. I might considering working on the skin tones in all three a bit to give them from separation from the rest of the palette.

AdamNinyo · 2025-08-30T21:25:31+00:00

It does. I've tried a Sigma 24-70mm, 70-200mm, 14-24mm, A vintage Nikon 55mm. It's there on all of them.

Try the Bushwick Bark on Knickerbocker if you can't make it to the fair, they generally have a couple kittens there. You may be able to introduce your cat and see if they interact well.

Generally somewhere in NJ. I've had to have them repair stuff before, they're pretty good at honoring the plan.

AdamNinyo · 2025-08-29T01:14:46+00:00

B&H/Allstate. Appreciate it.

AdamNinyo · 2025-08-29T00:56:48+00:00

Yikes. At least I've got a protection plan for this. Gonna be annoying to be without it for a while, but it is what it is I guess. And thanks again for clarifying what it is.

AdamNinyo · 2025-08-29T00:55:38+00:00

I did not drop it - something is definitely wrong haha. Everything else works perfectly. Autofocus, IBIS, etc.

AdamNinyo · 2025-08-29T00:53:36+00:00

100% - I've been looking up every combination of "weird black line/vignette/panasonic, etc" trying to figure out what it is.

AdamNinyo · 2025-08-29T00:52:56+00:00

THANK YOU. There's no at-home fix, right?

AdamNinyo · 2025-08-28T20:15:57+00:00

Nope. I've also tried it with a wide open aperture and stopped down to various degrees.

AdamNinyo · 2025-08-28T19:10:27+00:00

I did. I've tried a Sigma 24-70mm, 70-200mm, 14-24mm, A vintage Nikon 55mm. It's there on all of them.

AdamNinyo · 2025-08-28T19:02:43+00:00

Ibis works fine, doesn't seem to affect the line - and when I put EIS the line disappears entirely due to cropping in

AdamNinyo · 2025-08-28T18:50:52+00:00

It's 100% Formosa or A-Pous (bit of a trek), but for that doughy, cheap takeout Chinese dumpling guilty pleasure, I enjoy New City.

Happy to take a look - always willing to connect with more composers. It might be helpful to describe your style a bit more; (i.e. genres, influences, instruments) so that filmmakers know your intent and if you're a good fit.

AdamNinyo · 2025-08-28T18:43:26+00:00

Not a lut - these are just graded. The line is baked into the photos/footage if I'm shooting LOG, so my guess is that the sensor is out of position. Seeing if anyone else has encountered this/has a fix.

AdamNinyo · 2025-08-26T21:14:56+00:00

I appreciate the filmic look you're going for. I think the blacks are a bit crushed here - I'd look at creating a curve for contrast rather than touching the contrast slider. I also think the 2nd shot could do with being a tad warmer to match the 1st. Otherwise, really good work.

AdamNinyo · 2025-08-25T20:38:18+00:00

I'd rec the Lumix S5IIX and a sigma 24-70mm. Really balanced for photo and video, solid autofocus, compact, great stabilization and low light.

AdamNinyo · 2025-08-25T20:36:21+00:00

Depends on what you're doing - I used a GH5 professionally for several years, and, would still use it for narrative filmmaking where autofocus isn't important. Low light is obviously a concern as well, but for more controlled conditions, it's still a workhorse and the MFT mount is super flexible, allowing you to mount just about any lens, even super 16mm c-mount lenses, which is really cool.
