What lens to use for the combination of GH2+SPEEDBOOSTER+LA7200?
  • chinyewchinyew

    hello everyone, i just bought myself the Panasonic LA7200. and i'm shooting on a GH2 with the speedbooster adapter.

    i'm considering of buying these canon FD lens but afraid it might not work; Canon FD 17mm f1.4 and 85mm f1.8

    can anyone with experience of these combination share some advise?

    thanks.

    It is best to check anamorphic lenses topics, as you must choose lens as pair to Panasonic LA7200, I do not think speed booster play important role here.

    I have an optex anamorphic (similar to LA7200) and canon FD 50 1.4 and 24mm 2.8. Best match for me by far is kit lens 14-42 at wider side 17mm aprox. (14mm will vignette). Fds need to be stopped down a lot to get sharp image. 24mm better than 50mm. Speedbooster makes no big difference in image with the anamorphic.

    Those are my tests with lumix G6.
