This is my most honest test with the 35mm adapter, comparing footage captured with and without the 35mm adapter.

The exposure is locked in the beginning. Autoexposure is set towards the end.

There is about 1 stop of light loss. Vignetting and slight chromatic aberration is introduced as a compromise for a shorter and less expensive adapter.

The image with the 35mm adapter is flipped Vertically (but I forgot to flip it Horizontally)

Thanks for showing the difference between stock hv20, and with your 35mm adapter. My adapter (from twoneil) shipped today. Can't wait till my footage looks like his :O)

Do you make them for Canon lenses as well? How Much, where can I see pics, etc ... great work
twoneil 2 years ago

It's all in here:

Currently, I'm making them only for Nikon lens.
Justin Ouellette 2 years ago

Canon lenses don't have a manual aperture ring, and it's tough to set them electronically :(
Jaime Macías 2 years ago

I see, thats a bummer I'm heavily invested in canon glass.

i'm really, really tempted to buy an hv20 and buy me some 35mm lenses. the only problem is editing, i've only got a little macbook and a really tight budget
Andrew Butitta 2 years ago

Meh. Macbook should be fine. Core Duo or Core2? Either way, you have SSE3, which is what you want for HD editing. Throw some RAM in there and get to it!

Well...Adobe Premiere Elements only runs around $99.

Of course, it's nice to have a friend who already had a copy. ;)

I can't wait to get my HV20 (ordered today)... I actually made my adapter already, so I've just been impatiently waiting until I had enough dough to take the plunge.

Thanks for posting the comparo...nicely done.

I am a bit confused. It looks as the the image gets flipped horizontally when you switch to and from the adaptor. Is this what is happening, or am I misunderstanding what it is I am seeing? Please advise. I am planning on getting this setup, but am a bit coinfused still.
Thank you

The lens produces an inverted image. In post, you're supposed to correct it by flipping it right side up, and left to right. He did the right side up, but not the left to right...

that's so great . . thanks.

Sir, most impressive! If you could do the same with human subjects, that would be most appreciated!
Henry Post Productions 2 years ago

so you make the lenses and you just ship it and it is ready to work right out of the box? do u have to buy anything else to make it work?
twoneil 2 years ago

Nope, I only make the adapter. You will need a Nikon lens (I suggest a 50mm f1.8).

That's all you need for the HV20/30

how much is the adapter and the nikon lense?

Does the adapter work with canon hg10? I would love to get footage like that.
twoneil 2 years ago

Yup, it should also work. The adapter has a 43mm threading.
Paul Klinger 2 years ago

I'll have to put the adapter on my wish list and start saving some cash. I already have a nikon lens from an FM10 I have lying around. Thanks for replying so quickly!

I'm almost ready to tell my wife that I've got one ordered already - but the tough part is getting up the nerve to actually order it, then tell her....

is this a static adapter?

Thanks for the awesome comparison. Would the adapter work on the HG20?

hey, you know, i had a question, or maybe just a curiousity...

how does one go about editing footage shot on film?

do you have to cut the film manually?

and how do u transfer that medium to the computer?

hmmmm
