Follow Focus
Can anyone recomend a decent follow focus system that is compatible with the V1U?
|
Surely it has a continually spinning focus ring, and hence cannot be used with a follow focus system?

The Redrock Microfocus is wonderful on the V1U. (and on the Sony or Canon A1, I might add)

I love my redrock follow focus. and I don't notice any backlash in it.

I'm not ordering my V1 untill the end of the month so it makes sense to wait for the next gen follow focus from redrock. Thanks everyone for the input.

Does the V1U use the C gear, or did you have to order the D gear? Does the gear clear underneath the V1U's microphone module? Does the gear turn freely a full 360 degrees or does the screw fastener hit the V1U's mic module? Thanks. |

Also, the (minor, and soon to be eliminated as stated) issue isn't backlash, it's play - the wheel can turn a little (around one or two degrees) in the opposite direction to that last turned before the gear engages on the lens. A lot of FF units exhibit this, the better ones do not - as I said, apparently Redrock are issuing an update that will eliminate this, making the microFocus an awesome buy. |
