Film Look Lens
Hi, i need your help. We are about to shoot a 15 minute short film. We will be using the EX1R. However were not very happy with the lens that it comes with. Can anyone suggest a good lens/lens adapter for the EX1R? We are looking to give a film look rather than a video look that the stock lens on it gives. Thanks.

Well you can't change the lens on the EX1 so your only option would be a letus type adapter, but this will bring a whole heap of headaches. You would be better of renting a camera with a 35mm sensor such as the Sony F3, Panasonic AF101 or perhaps even a DSLR.

Hi Alister. Many thanks for the reply. Our budget is 0 so we have to use the ex1r as thats the only cam we have. is there anyway around it at all? I thought the adapters they did were pretty good? No?

A decent Letus stye adapter will cost similar money to a Canon T2i or 550D DSLR. The DSLR while not perfect will probably be a lot more straight forward and reliable than a Letus style adapter, especially if you are new to this type of shooting.
