First time testing the 12mm to see how high I can fit something in the shot.  I was not very far from that building and was able to fit it in.  I'ts a bit cut because I wanted to align it better.  It's a 12 stories building.  I guess when I go to Spain in september I'll be able to fit anything in a shot, without having to walk a lot to do it!

Hello.  I have a question.  I was looking at my shots with the rokinon 12mm and the lens information does not show in the Exif.  I know that the lens has manual focus and can't send the aperture information either, but I thought that at least the lens information would be placed in the Exif.  Only the focal lenght is there because I included it manually in the camera.

 

Is there a way to add, in Lightroom, the lens information to the Exif?

 

Thank you.

 

Don't think anyone has answered this  :( 

 

 If you use a Mac and want to edit the Exif before import try Exif Editor from the App Store.  If you want free and to use directly in LR the look for LensTagger which is a LR plugin (Mac & Windows).  Both are graphical front ends for the command line ExifTool.  You'll need to configure presets for your lenses. Oh, and make and Exif additions prior to keywording etc they as wipe these out  B)

 

Hope that's helpful.

Just back from a family holiday... A couple with the 12mm.

Hi all - this is my first post here, and I thought I'd share some stuff from my Rokinon on my X-Pro1.

When 12mm are not wide enough, stitch 2 frames (Algarve, Portugal).

First photo is the panorama, the other is a native 12mm Samyang.

You can also just do it in the camera by going to the lens mount adapter setting and using one of the flexible presets (5&6) and set it to 12mm. That way they are marked right from the camera. Just the focal length is recorded so I well understand why you may want to mark things "properly" in the EXIF after the fact.

I did a photo shoot for a client this weekend, and had an opportunity to use the Rokinon when I decided to have her stand in this elevator in an old warehouse (she has a background in mechanical sculpture, so it was a really nice setting).  It's tricky to use a lens like this on people, but it can really hit the spot in some cases:

Hi,

all photos I have seen from this lens looks pretty cool. So I decided to buy one too. Unfortunately, I received probably bad piece and pictures are really bad (compared to fuji lenses). I agreed to to change to another piece, which is little better but still far from ok. I cannot persuade guys in photo store that this lens should have much better results :-( So at the end I will have to change it to Fuji 10-24mm and pay much more that I wanted to.

Can you share some examples?

    • The backslashes you are referring are just symbols denoting path.  Once you import into these LUTS into Davinci Resolve those backslashes are removed by default and you only see is the true file name which has no backslashes.  Convince yourself of this by opening the LUT folder from the Davinci Resolve Project Settings.  Do you see any backslashes in those LUT names? Of course not.  The only name you see is the one that has the underscores and the periods. These LUTS work as designed without having to change any path names.  However, they need to be set up properly through CSTs and by what is supported in Davinci Resolve.  Hence, the FLog2C film simulation LUTS cannot be used because Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut color space and the FLog2C gamut. Alternatively, Davinci Resolve does support Flog2 film simulation LUTS because the color space for FLog2 is Rec 2020 and there is an FLog2 gamut. If all you are doing is changing the path names then you are not getting the correct results.
    • I found the reddit topic i refere to :  https://www.reddit.com/r/davinciresolve/comments/1pc3f1e/cant_apply_new_fujifilm_gfx_55_lut/ "Update for y'all, It's just like what @ExpBalSat said, it's because of the backslashes in the names break them. I changed the file name and it works now. "   For me it was the solution. Realy annoying if it doesn’t work for you 😕  
    • Here is the solution to using the Eterna 55 file simulation LUTs in Davinci Resolve.   In general, do not use the FLog2C to film simulation LUTs as they are not supported by Davinci Resolve for two reasons: 1) Davinci Resolve does not support Fuji Gamut Color Space and 2) Davinci Resolve does not support FLog2C gamma.  Instead, use Flog2 which is supported by Davinci Resolve.  Here is an example.  Let's say that you want to use Classic Chrome simulation.  Do the following: Complete your color grade and use a CST to get to Rec 709. Add a node.  Use a CST to convert from Rec 709 to FLog2.  Output Color space is Rec 2020 and Outout Gamut is FLog2. Add a node.  Apply the FLog2 to Classic Chrome LUT Create a combination node from node in steps 2 and 3. Apply a Key to the combination node and adjust the Key Output Gain to get the amount of the combination node that you want applied. So that you do not have to do this over and over again, generate a LUT for the combination node.  Remember to turn off all other nodes before generating the LUT. Hope this helps others. Don  
    • Thanks for the insights. I think it's really hard to make a decision without having the two side by side!
