These Rokinon Cine AF lenses have been in my kit for a couple years now, and I keep going back to them. They’re sharp, lightweight, and the autofocus actually works — which is more than I can say for a lot of other “budget” cine glass. In this video I break down the full set, what I like, whats no good, and why I still use them on real shoots. Not sponsored, just real-world thoughts. Shot examples included from client work. If you’ve been looking at: - Budget cine lenses for Sony E-mount - Autofocus cinema lenses - Rokinon V-AF / Samyang Cine AF reviews - Best lenses for corporate / doc filmmaking — this one’s for you. ------------------------ [Affiliate Links Obvs]: Rokinon CineAF 24mm: https://amzn.to/3By8ytJ ------------------------ Zhiyun B500 - https://amzn.to/40higJB Lightbank Inflatable Tube - https://amzn.to/4ixe4fu Smallrig 35" Softbox - https://amzn.to/42wbUIz Aputure 1200x - https://amzn.to/4ivLZVZ Sony FX-3: https://amzn.to/3OWQZqm Simera C: https://amzn.to/42KMEwX Hollyland Lark M2: https://amzn.to/3By8ytJ Blower Baby - https://amzn.to/3fz6Tph Pocket 3 - https://amzn.to/4lMKDsX UGREEN NAS DXP4800 Plus(US AMZ, 15% OFF) - https://amzn.to/3S2V3aj UGREEN NAS DXP6800 Pro(US AMZ, 10% OFF) - https://amzn.to/4iZfJe9 ------------------------ 0:00 Intro 0:39 Overview 1:20 AF Any Good? 2:52 Optical Characteristics 4:09 Unique Attributes / Accessories 6:25 Summary of Thoughts ------------------------ Links: 🎥 My DP Work: https://www.keatonnye.com/ 📱 Learn more: https://www.cinetemp.com/ 📸 IG: https://www.instagram.com/keatonnye/

Filmed a bank commercial that was anything but boring. This tribal-owned bank in Oklahoma wanted something visually different, so we pulled together pow-wow dancers, a fire spinning effect I saw on a tourism gig, and shot the whole thing on the Sony Burano with the Thypoch Simera C’s. Breaking down how we pulled it off in one day, what inspired the visuals, and why the Burano was the right call. We had a crew and safety measures in place for the fire spinning — definitely not something to try without proper precautions. ________________ INSTANT CCT READINGS IPHONE APP https://www.cinetemp.com/ ________________ 🎥 Gear used in this video [affiliate links obv]: Zhiyun B500 - https://amzn.to/40higJB Lightbank Inflatable Tube - https://amzn.to/4ixe4fu Smallrig 35" Softbox - https://amzn.to/42wbUIz Aputure 1200x - https://amzn.to/4ivLZVZ Sony FX-3: https://amzn.to/3OWQZqm Simera C: https://amzn.to/42KMEwX Rokinon CineAF: https://amzn.to/3By8ytJ Hollyland Lark M2: https://amzn.to/3By8ytJ Blower Baby - https://amzn.to/3fz6Tph Pocket 3 - https://amzn.to/4lMKDsX ________________ 0:00 Intro 0:20 The Spot 0:51 Crafting the Creative 2:33 Tourism Inspiration 4:00 Pre-Production 4:35 Importance of the Right Crew 5:49 Camera Equipment & Lenses 7:25 Final Thoughts ________________ Crew: Director: @ddksteve DP: @KeatonNye Producer: @tonyd.pro Gaffer: @tillgen AC: @spaceman_2794 Grip: @mrconnorsmith Stills: @jjustinn ________________ Link to spot: https://youtu.be/890sCzJAbBQ?si=hNEVUJXhsFqLkw2x ________________ Link to Fire Spinning Article (for professionals): https://www.instructables.com/The-Ring-of-Fire-a-Cheap-Steel-Wool-Pyrotechnic-Di/ ________________ Links: 🎥 My DP Work: https://www.keatonnye.com/ 📱 Learn more: https://www.cinetemp.com/ 📸 IG: https://www.instagram.com/keatonnye/ #FilmIndustry #Filmmaking #sonyburano #FilmProduction #Filmmaking2025 #cinealta

8:10 First time at NAB and it did not disappoint. I went looking for my next cinema camera and ended up diving deep into gear from Sony, Blackmagic, Kinefinity, PGYTech, GVM, Ugreen, SmallRig, Fujifilm, Tilta, DULENS, and more. Burano vs Pixis 12K was top of mind—but honestly, some of the biggest surprises came from the smaller booths. Appreciate Sony for letting us shoot at Meow Wolf to wrap the week.

I just spent a full week with the Blackmagic URSA Cine 12K — and while I loved the sensor, the body was just too big for my workflow. But, it looks like Blackmagic is about to drop something. Leaked images suggest a new Blackmagic Pyxis 12K, potentially packing the same amazing 12K sensor into a compact, modular body. 🎥 I’ll be at NAB this weekend to check it out in person — subscribe for updates from the show floor.

We were given 7 days in the Faroe Islands to explore and create a film. Peace, isolation, and clarity were overwhelming during this short week. Film created by Keaton Nye and Steve Jones. Original score by Seth Wright Music and Script written by Taylor Jones.

We took a 3 day trip to NYC and linked up with some awesome models. Everything was filmed handheld with the RED Raven. It's always fun to challenge yourself and try new things. If you have questions just ask. Have a great day everybody! --------------------------------------------- Keaton Nye: www.instagram.com/keatonnye Script: https://www.instagram.com/taycommajay/ Anna: www.instagram.com/anna.b.cameron Anastasia: www.instagram.com/vershinina.anastasia
