This, to me, is probably your most impressive project so far - and that's saying a lot. I never knew such a lens was physically possible to be used with a digital camera, let alone as a DIY project. I was expecting the image to be washed out and with extreme chromatic aberration, like most ultra wide aperture lenses (especially since the light must go through a film), yet it looks perfectly clear and free of aberrations. Incredible. Why has nobody done this before? Sure, the size is somewhat impractical, but surely there are some niche use cases in filmmaking where it would be extremely desirable. And to think something so innovative was done not by a company, but by a DIY KZitemr!

The Alexa LF is the closest digital equivalent I believe. But there are a number of film ways to get close to this specially large format going straight to negative.

Bravo! I'm in the process of building an Afghan Box Camera and would love to shoot with this lens. Some of these images are reminiscent of the tilt-shift lenses. Imagine the fun you could have if this lens was mounted on a front standard that could do rise/fall/tilt/shift. That shallow DOF would make it quite a challenge. I picked up a different "barrel" lens to play with that's much more readily available, if anyone wanted to play. It's the Fujinon-Xerox lens that's used in some of their larger models, easily procured (affordably) through Ebay. This was an amazing rig build!

Also there's not a lot of surplus camera sensors a out there because the sensor is the hardest part to manufacture, it's extremely sensitive to malfunctions and that is the reason why crop sensor cameras are much cheaper and therefore more popular, area of sensor means more material, which means higher chances of defective pixels.

@@igbatious It produces the same sort of effect as a tilt lens, but by different means. The miniturization effect is caused by the depth of field to be much smaller than that of our eyes at similar distances. Our brains interpret far-away subjects having similar focus to the background as "large" and subjects with different focus as the background as "small" as these normally happen when things are far away from us and close to us. Far away things are bigger than they appear and our brain compensates in our perception, likewise really close things just look big because they are so close and the brain compensates. When something that is actually far away appears to have a different focus than the background our brains interpret it instead as something viewed close up, and so our perception is changed to think the subject "must be" really tiny to be so close and yet so small in the frame. Tilt lenses achieve this by laterally rotating the plane of focus to manipulate this look. The lens created here *actually* has the shallow depth of field.

There was a person there, near the "projector" that was switching the sheet with the lyrics every 30 seconds. It sounds so archaic to think about it nowadays. They removed it like a decado ago, and have installed a big, modern projector. I don't go to that church anymore, but this brought back some memories! Thank you, great video

Holy damn I knew there was gonna be a lot of bokeh but this exceeded my wildest expectations. Also I almost cannot believe that despite having two fresnel lenses in there, there's zero visible chromatic aberration - do they cancel each other out that well? Initially I thought you were going to use some ridiculous large format image sensor - like from an observatory telescope or disassembled x-ray sensor panel like the one featured in one of Applied Science's videos - although in both cases the image would've been black and white as sensors in these use-cases don't feature a bayer filter. But this intermediate method with a diffusion film is genius and works way better than I thought it would! I hope this will inspire some filmmakers to make their own and do some cool stuff with it. Here's one idea how to take it to the next level - make it a tilt-shift lens as well - you already have the bellow which can allow some movement, just have to change the mechanism to add translation and rotation to the lens.

I notice chromatic aberration, but maybe I am imagining things. I saw red aberration in the first shot at the edge of Matt's hair and green aberration on the face of the cow. It is also not a very sharp lens. Typical of the era it comes from, before computer designed lenses ironed out the swirly bokeh and softness, and coatings fixed the low contrast and aberrations.

Wet plate photographer here. This is very similar to how my 120 year old camera works, the plate size is 12 inches square. Using film, wet plate or modern large format film as the “sensor” would lead to a spectacular image using this lens. You could then scan it after development.

Yeah, I was immediately reminded of the 1920s Century No.4A Folmer Graflex Studio Camera my father uses for wet plate and cyanotype photography. With a photosensitive layer you could even spare the fresnel lenses, since those are only needed for reprojection into the normal camera lens. This should also lead to an even clearer image, fresnel has noticeable distortion.

My thoughts exactly. The only innovation here (and that's not sarcasm, I've actually not seen anybody in the analog community do this before) is the frensel setup to project the image onto a full frame sensor. I think this may actually be quite a successfull accessory for large format cameras like Intrepid 4x5 (since it appears to be the most popular large format camera right now).

I was just thinking the same about tip-tilt. By adding a way to tip and tilt the lens, the camera could make use of the Scheimpflug principle whereby the focal plane is rotated rather than just moved back and forth. You could take some really interesting and different pictures such as a double portrait with one person near to the camera on the left of the frame and the other person in the distance at the right, then by tilting the focal plane to run diagonally between them, each person could be in focus while everything else in the image is blurred out.
