Piotr, surely RedRock does not manufacture filters - do you know which brand do they re-purpose?

Would it stop you from purchasing the camera again?

I have purchased, returned, and re-purchased the B+W 486. The reason it wen back is because of the green vignetting. The reason I got it back was it worked otherwise. I tried the Schneider Optics 750 True-cut, but it was useless, completely, on my camera. I provided proof in this thread: http://www.dvinfo.net/conf/sony-xdca...aste-time.html But people have said it worked for them yet I have seen no results from their use. Until there is a better camera for the price I would buy the EX1/3 and know that it has its limitations like anything else does. |
Alex, that link was for a 4x4 size. For the wide lenses on my adapter I need to use 4x5.65 or larger.
Bob, it would not stop me from purchasing this camera, however it is something to be aware of and you should be prepared to purchase filtration to deal with it. As I mentioned, I've seen the same phenomenon on an HPX3000, a camera that retails for 5 times the price of an ex1. -Sean |

Just add this 486 filter (some say this one fits too), and you're good to go. Additional expense to the camera cost: $150 - $200 depending on filter variant. Not pleasant, but yet not significant enough to stop from buying the cam. Hey, look at it this way: you have to buy many other accessories anyway... filter is just one of them. And, if you go the matte box route - fohgettabaoutit... money will start flying outta window in droves, so 77mm filter seems super cheap on comparison :) |
