Mark Lafleur Of Old Fast Glass Pt. 1: The Beauty of Vintage Glass

In Part 1 of a fascinating conversation with Mark LaFleur, hosts Peter Pascucci and Oren Soffer dive into the nuances of lens testing and vintage lens characteristics. They dissect topics like the "sweet spot" of a lens, the implications of shooting at varying apertures, and the contrasting traits of anamorphic and spherical lenses. Mark also underscores the significance of fostering a sense of community, the crucial role of social media in demystifying the lens selection process, and how Old Fast Glass celebrates and promotes the work of budding filmmakers.
