IS THE TILTA AUTOFOCUS ADAPTER ACTUALLY GOOD?

Sony cine lenses look incredible — but the "manual focus only" problem stops a lot of shooters from ever pulling the trigger. In this video I put the Tilta autofocus adapter through 2 months of real work: cars, bikes, talking heads, and B-roll on my Sony FX3. I break down how it compares to the DJI LiDAR system, why it costs roughly half, and the calibration process that makes it tick. Stick around for the downsides nobody's talking about before you buy. ==================== GEAR MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO ==================== ▸ Tilta Autofocus Adapter: https://geni.us/1wAE7S ==================== TABLE OF CONTENTS: ==================== 00:00 - Intro 00:37 - Tilta vs DJI Lidar 1:33 - PL Adapter 2:35 - Realtime Showcase 3:26 - DJI Lidar Setup & Calibration 5:01 - Tilta Adapter Setup 6:03 - Tilta Adapter Calibration 10:02 - Changing Aperture 10:56 - Overriding Autofocus 11:16 - Real World Tests 14:56 - Downside #1 15:40 - Downside #2 16:15 - Downside #3 17:55 - Pricing Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share your thoughts in the comments below! ---------------------------------------------------------- JOIN ME ON INSTAGRAM! https://www.instagram.com/herokme ---------------------------------------------------------- Check out MotionVFX packs to spice up your videos! https://mvfx.co/herokme ---------------------------------------------------------- ROYALTY-FREE MUSIC FOR ALL YOUR AUDIO NEEDS!
