watch 8mm-ish Test

How do you like the Diana+ lenses? What did the video look like before the post work?

The 8mm look is for sure great. Good job!

Hi Paul! Thanks!

The Diana lenses are nice for that low-fi or degraded look. Granted, they don't sell the effect on their own (I think you still need some post work) but they do lend a soft appearance to the overall footage - particularly at the edges, with some color fringing.

I hope to have an actual Diana + "low-fi" footage test to show in the near future.

In the meantime, I'll try and upload some before and after pics of the vacation footage.

They aren't all frame-accurate, but close enough that you can get a good idea.
 
No problem, Paul! :)

Papertwin: Glad to hear how much you like it! The short film I'm planning will have "docu" footage which uses this aesthetic. (I'm planning to capture audio on a cassette recorder to help further sell the idea.)

Thanks again, everyone!
