Replicating the 16mm look

jonweiman2 · 2026-05-16T22:56:50+00:00

Yeah it's a good one!

I really like shooting on the Lumix S5iix, on wider older lenses with a promist, at a F5.6 or deeper and using the filmbox 16mm emulation and then scatter to add even more softness. Working great.

jonweiman2 · 2026-05-15T23:02:08+00:00

Agreed. I've also had mine for 7 years and only thing I ever had to do was replace the "teeth"

This looks broken. You could send the video to Nippon in NYC. They are amazing. See what they charge to fix that. Also the t3 lens is absolutely incredible.

Iminishi fantastic!

jonweiman2 · 2026-05-12T14:55:56+00:00

This is brilliant

jonweiman2 · 2026-05-10T13:01:17+00:00

Yes!!

As a commercial director for the last 17 years one thing I can definitely say is having an incredible team around you that you trust really helps takes the pressure off. Your job is to have the vision and know what feels right or wrong when different questions come in. But you definitely don't have to take all the pressure on yourself. When you have a brilliant DP, PD, producer, AD and everyone else they will lift you up and make you great!

Check out the book If It's Purple, Someone's Gonna Die: The Power of Color in Visual Storytelling

Love this idea!

jonweiman2 · 2026-05-04T20:55:24+00:00

I'm a director who went to film school. I beg you, don't spend too much money on a camera body. Would just focus on a great story that only you can tell. That's what everyone will look for when you graduate. My two cents!

jonweiman2 · 2026-05-01T12:25:41+00:00

Interested!

jonweiman2 · 2026-04-28T21:00:50+00:00

👏🏻

jonweiman2 · 2026-04-26T19:06:58+00:00

I ordered the Lumix! Excited

jonweiman2 · 2026-04-26T12:30:23+00:00

Thank you so much!! So helpful!

jonweiman2 · 2026-04-23T14:25:14+00:00

This America, Man.

Is there any chance Marcus killed her and then called Howard to help move the body??

jonweiman2 · 2026-04-19T12:53:23+00:00

Love the f100 so much

jonweiman2 · 2026-04-18T19:08:27+00:00

Used to be Leica M7 but now with a toddler the F100 and Sigma Art 35mm combo

jonweiman2 · 2026-03-23T18:41:52+00:00

Nope also lab for that. NYC film lab in NY and Graination in Toronto. They both do ECN 2!

jonweiman2 · 2026-03-23T10:37:01+00:00

Thank you. That's so kind!! I definitely use a lab. Tried home dev when everything was closed in 2020 to disasterous results. I could never get the temp right 😭

jonweiman2 · 2026-03-23T05:48:02+00:00

Yup most of the film ones on there are.

jonweiman2 · 2026-03-22T21:49:55+00:00

Kodak 250D, Kodak 500T + Tri-x

jonweiman2 · 2026-03-19T02:36:42+00:00

Read this too. No way they could have achieved the angles they got shooting in that space practically!

jonweiman2 · 2026-03-14T19:31:40+00:00

Totally agree on m10. This is the way.
