Long Lens with a DSLR/Mirrorless

[DanCorrigansOldTeeth]

Anyone have any footage of them shooting long lens with a DSLR/Mirrorless? Specifically utilizing zoom through smoothly via it's ring.

if you have a sony, get the pz 18-105mm for aps-c cameras. its the smoothest out of the pz and not too expensive. works best with the fx30 but any aps-c or full frame cam in super35 mode will do. there are pz lenses for panasonic but they dont really have great range or capability. anything adidas by chris mulhern uses a sony fs5 with that pz lens, and anything by kev perez uses the fx6 with the full frame 28-135 pz. way more expensive setup tho.

Unfortunately I'm rocking with Canon but those PZ adapters look epic. Saw there were Canon ones for EF lenses if I had a non Mirrorless

yeah the canon 18-80 cine zoom is 4600$ lol. some people have done like old zooms with motors but its usually only covers smaller than a micro 4/3rd

There’s the Canon 18-135mm IS USM combined with the PZ-E1 power zoom adapter. Planning to give it a try since I want that lens for shooting photos anyway.

As far as Sony goes, I absolutely love the 18-105 specifically for the zoom ring NOT the zoom rocker.  If you grew up on w vx2000, the 18-105 paired with an LCDviewfinder feels pretty close to the same.  I’ve seen other shooters rock the expensive 28-135 or whatever it is, but it’s always zoom rocker.
