Rod distances + Optical height

Can anyone tell me or measure their Red setup and post the exact distance between the 19mm rods when used with the Red Bottom plate and also the Optical axis height? See picture.

Much appreciated,

Dave

Updated, thank you. For further rod measurements go here (http://www.reduser.net/forum/showpost.php?p=101367&postcount=60)

Good question, pls also include off set distance from lens camera center to 3/8" base plate center. I would like to adapt my Red #675 to use my existing inventory of Arri base plates, sliding plates, MB-14 matte boxes and follow focus units.

Those distances should all be the Arri standard.

I think that 115mm height and 105 width

Thanks for help.....

The rod centre spacing for Arri studio 19mm rods/bridge plate is 104mm and is symmetrical about the optical axis.
The height of the optical axis from the rod centre plane is 120mm.

The rod centre spacing for the Arri studio 15mm rods/bridge plate is 100mm with an optical axis offset of 17.25mm.
The height of the optical axis plane from the rod centre on the 15mm system is 118mm.

The rod centre spacing for the Arri lightweight 15mm rods is 60mm and is symmetrical about the optical axis.
The height of the optical axis from the rod centre on the 15mm system is 85mm.

These are okay…what I’m after is the rod centre spacing for the Red 19mm Bottom plate
and the height of the optical axis from the Bottom plate rod centre plane as in diagram above.

Cheers,

Don't you just wish you had the little Red BASTARD in front of you so you so measure it yourself.

Well I do.

Definitely..............

Just learn't from Red technical support (huge thank you to Kevin) that the rod spacing and optical axis height of the Red bottom height is identical to that of the Red Arri bridge plate, i.e. rod spacing = 104mm; optical axis height = 120mm.

will you please update your diagram for helping anyone could read this post.

[david farland]

There's actually 4 diagrams to produce. When I do, I'll ask Red tech support to verify the 4th (combined 15mm adapter & univeral mount) and post here (http://www.reduser.net/forum/showpost.php?p=101367&postcount=60).

done!
