Yes, to reiterate Mitchell's question: without the relay and the Extreme on an EX-1/3 set to about Z70-74, are we closer to the Academy or Full Frame size? I guess I could put a lens on a 35mm...

I believe that the relay system was always going to be another lens. There was no other way for the image in the ground glass to get to the CCD/CMOS without another lens. The adaptors just were not...

The original question has been answered correctly, but you certainly CAN achieve shallow focus without an adapter. There are plenty of sample videos online (I have posted a few) that show the range...

It was a little tricky but I rigged a tripod overhead as you can see here. Borrowed my buddy, Bill Parker's camera, so I could shoot the other stuff and leave the overhead permanently affixed.

I have the DV 8 with the Carbon SL legs. Very fast to setup. They have loosened up on occasion but if you use the right socket wrench you can tighten them from the back. This is the only flaw but...

I have been on about two dozen flights this year with the EX-1 and HB-207 backpack, and only once did I have to check it (and only because I was the last to board and the overheads were full). I was...

Maybe I am incorrect, but wasn't the CFXL marketed as the EX-1 fix? So if Cinevate is working on something else then why did a number of us spend 250+ dollars to get the CFXL "fix"?
I appreciate...

About to order?

I was about to order a screw on pola for the EX-1 when I saw this thread. Does this seem to be an unusual case or do people have a recommendation for a better screw on pola for the EX-1?

Thanks,...

I do detail on when using an adapter at around -7 or -10. The adapter softens the image and I think it pops more and is much easier to focus with the detail.

This was a joke.

I love causing heated debates over innocuous comments, like, saying the B+H catalog is very big and for some people may be unnecessary.

Sheesh.

Anyone use the new Brevis CFXL EX-1 fix?
