Description
In today’s video, I take the Nikon ZR into one of the most cinematic locations imaginable — a full-size Star Trek–style starship bridge — to put the new SIRUI 50mm T1.8 Anamorphic Autofocus lens through a real-world test.
We’ll look at:
✨ Autofocus performance on the ZR with an anamorphic lens
✨ Handheld, gimbal, and walk-and-talk shooting
✨ How the SIRUI 20mm AF Anamorphic cuts with the 50mm
✨ Low-light performance under futuristic bridge lighting
✨ B-roll test footage + behind-the-scenes setup
✨ Whether the Nikon ZR can truly be used for cinematic, sci-fi-style production
If you’ve been wondering how the ZR handles anamorphic autofocus, or you just want to see some gorgeous cinematic shots, you’ll love this one.
