Music Video by Cat Power shot with XL1s and PL-XL1 adaptor
 

Hello John,

Thank you for expressing an interest in the Optex PL-XL1 lens adaptor and the Peleng 8mm Fish Eye 35mm lens I am selling as described in my first post.

Here are pictures which I just took of the adaptor and lens - taken with my trusty 'ol PowerShot s300:

Here's a music video by Cat Power called "He War" which was directed by Brett Vapnek and shot with the Canon XL1S using a PL-XL1 lens adaptor and film lenses. http://www.matadorrecords.com/cat_power/music.html First, turn your volume up loud - then CLICK on either high (broadband) or low (dialup)
I think this music video gives you a good example of what to expect.

Feel free to let me know what you think and if you have any additional questions.

Thank you!

How about some *silent* B-roll I quickly shot one Sunday last Summer
on the Charles River just as a week-long rainfall had subsided
by the late morning and the sky had cleared up by early afternoon, it was very windy though!

Both the Optex PL-XL1 adaptor and the Pelend 8mm Fisheye are still for sale as described here:

don, your last link is a duplicate of the first angenieux one.

also, the cat power video is in RAM format, which is a shame because i wanted to see it, but i'm not willing to put Realplayer on my machine haha..

lastly, might be a good idea to post some FULL size video, as opposed to 320x240 or whatever the .mov links were, simply because it's hard to see the disparity in sharpness / clarity of a 35mm lens vs. the XL1s when the video is so tiny. (just a constructive thought)

Hi Adam,

Thanks for your input. Link was corrected! I'll see what I can do about full-size clips - although if you actually take a look see - you'll see the difference.

I use RealOne Player (Real Player 10) which is eons and eons and eons better than the standard Real Player that you are thinking of - no advertising too.

Using high end glass such as a Zeiss SuperSpeed is going to yield a higher end, more resolute and more "cinematic-looking" image with a more supple taper on the depth of field (provided you know how to shoot well). Zeiss Super Speeds are my favorite for use with the PL-XL1 adaptor.

Best,
