I'm looking at your quality and wondering why the 6k over this one.

I've owned this lens for about 4 years paired with my RED Gemini. I've shot 99% of my work with it, it's a beast. I use mine with an EasyRig that I own as well. I also own the servo zoom, but never ever use as I hate the ENG style zoom of servos.

In 2024 this camera can still be used, do you think? I'm hesitating between buying (the G1 version) or the Black Magic Camera Cinema 6k Ful frame, what do you think?

Why is this Rhino without a horn? Born that way? Or cut off?

Sweet vid

Excellent video. I’m right there with you brother. Been using my F55 with its proprietary 18 - 252mm for years. I shoot F8 all day. There’s still no reason for me to move on. Once you find your groove, you keep it.

Great video. Keep sharing please.

I love this video

Great video! Have you ever considered the Canon 25-250mm or renting the new Duvo 24-30 like you said in your video! The price though is astronomical! I’m thinking in getting one of those two lenses . Still undecided

Hey that's my dad

Excelent review with even better footage!

Honestly thought wild rhinos would try to charge us on sight because they can’t see well lol

good to see a new Fujinon XK video up!

Great work! I also shoot with the Ursa 12K, over the shoulder most of the time. A few other strategies I use for weight balance, primarily so I'm not creating neck pain: A) Shark Fin 2 Batt's off the back, B) Add a 5lb counter-balance off a set of 6" inch rails on the back. I like this, because it's not much weight but the leverage creates a tremendous amount of stability, and I can easily dump it if it gets in the way. Costs very little. 3) Easy-Rig with about 5-10lbs of support, so there is enough weight to create stability, but also enough support to help me get through long weeks. / All the best.

Excellent content and beautiful footage. I would have kept watching if it was 2 hours.😅

Really great work my friend. I personally love the Fujinon line of glass and like some of the other high end lenses it has its own character/signature. Continue your great work my friend.

Love seeing a DP with a curated setup that optimizes his workflow. Looks like you found yours! (For now 😂)

Thanks for the information I really like your video.

Wonderful video

One can always count on you to deliver! Looks good

Amazing content, thanks for doing this

bro you upscale and denoise the footage and then crappy YT compression adds it back LOL :)

Amazing footage man. I don't understand how you get so little chroma noise in your images, especially in low light conditions. I have the 12K OLPF and denoising is a big step in the post process of everything I capture no matter the lighting conditions. Stoked to watch your next video!

It's a damn shame what happened to your lens kit! Unbelievable. I hope you had your insurance cover that kind of insanity.

i swear, that shot at 0:30 almost cost me 12k

Man, your editing and music selection always brings tears to my eyes. No kidding. Simply love your style…

Some of the most clean and crisp shots I’ve seen coming out of the 12k, almost like they’re disobeying the laws of RUclipss compression algorithms. Incredible work mate!

f3.2 is super fast for a 20 to 120mm holly cow! i need that

Brilliantly edited and great insights. Thanks Garth.

I really loved the first video you dropped about this lens, this second one is also a real pleasure for the eyes. Would you recommend using it with a smaller camera ? BMCC 6k FF for example ?

Amazing shots, lens looks incredibly sharp

Blew my mind. So, so helpful - thank you for sharing.

, it's been long time my friend

Pretty insane results!

I have Topaz Video too (and photo) :D it does great, but on my computer it takes such a long time to render lol do you typically denoise etc. before grading or after? I imagine this kind of software would be a BMCC 2.5k or OG's best friend but I'd need something like an Mac Studio to use it feasibly for longer clips 😵‍💫

So so much helpful! Thank you!

I use the 12K. The Camera is an amazing product. Usually i use it for studio work. I own a bunch of others BM Cameras but the 12K is still my favorite. U have to be careful in lower resolutions then 12K because especially in 18:1 there are a lot of Blocky artifacts. So staying on 12K is the better option. I recommend 4 additions to the camera. 1. the SSD module. even tho the connection with USB C is not optimal (i use a third party Flex USBC cable), it is always on with a 4TB NVME SSD as a backup storage on shoot. 2. (and for me the most important) the ENG kit for the URSA broadcast fits perfect on the URSA 12K so u can bring your Viewfinder closer to the front of the Camera. This way the weight distribution is way nicer. 3. The Small RIG Cheese Side plate is kinda must. (with this i can JerryRig a Protection for the USB C Cable) 4. The last on my list is the Easyrig Vario 5 with the Stabil G3. This way i can handle the extra weight of my Core V-mount shark fin to make this camera hotswapable and power it with (up to) 2x 300 Watt V-mount for 8H Continues Run Times.

Love your video style, Garth! Really nice perspectives and amazing shots 👏

Love my XK20-120 paired with my EVA1 for doco work.

That Image....Yooooooo 👏👏👏

Have you considered the Nikon Z8 or Z9? I feel the smaller, more fully featured mirrorless bodies with internal 8K 60fps NRAW outweighs the benefits of the bigger, cumbersome body of the 12K body and resolution. Nikon also has a control handgrip which can control the entire camera as if you were holding the body directly.

THANK YOU FOR FINALLY GIVING US COVERAGE WITH THIS LENS IVE BEEN DREAMING OF THIS LENS FOR SO LONG

Very impressive Garth; I've admired your work since whenever you started your 'Blackmagic' journey. I've been thinking about going this route on my Ursa Broadcast G2, for sheer picture quality; but it's hard to give up the reach of the old doubling 2/3" B4 lenses; but this is the kind of lens, that would feel right at home, while giving much higher quality in Super35. Industry's been tough here so I'll have to wait quite a while now, but they do come around on eBay - did you get the grip with yours? I've always thought of the 12K as a cine camera but it makes good sense for high end docs too, I can see now; beautiful picture quality. Regards, Steve👍

Garth how do you feel about the new line from NAB? Will you be upgrading. I thinkt he 12k OLPF is what I might be going for, as I have all the accessories for the 4.6k.

Wow, thank you for sharing your story/perspective. While, I don’t currently shoot on BM or with zooms I can see the pros of both. But even more, your footage was beautiful. I wish you continued success on your film journey.

It's rather unusual for me to watch RUclips video 3 times:) This is a fantastic setup. So is your work.

I’m honestly surprised that Garth doesn’t have 10x the amount of subscribers. His videos are beautiful, informative, honest and I’m intrigued in the content itself regardless of the cameras/lenses/etc discussed. Keep it up Garth and keep on publishing content!

Awesome mate - beautiful shots and loved hearing a bit of your process, cheers

Hi, watching your videos is a treat, you create great work! Just wondering if you can use Fujinon 20-120 to cover the ursa mini pro 12k sensor well? Some say that the image circle of this lens is 31.5mm while others say that it is only 28.5mm, which makes me a little confused.
