uh oh... followfocus

[Zakaree Sandberg]

Mitch, if your watching help me out.
I need a quote for the new FF/MB zakaree@cox.net

In the mean time.. just got my zeiss zf's cinevised from duclos (they do an excellent job BTW)

One problem.. i only have a RR followfocus.. it works for cine lenses..
but it wont work with my ZF's.. everything is just way to close to the front of the camera and the gear wont get anywhere near where i need it..

is there a fix?

Zakaree, I can quote you right here & now. The MMB-1 mattebox with a 114mm bellow back and our 15 to 19 rod adaptor is $2050. The MFF-1 follow focus with .08 gear and our Abel 15 to 19 rod adaptor is $2050, so the whole kit would be $4100.

The Arri MFF-1 will work great with your ZF lenses, it can even be set to turn them the "right" way instead of the "Nikon" way.

If you want 'em just contact us directly to place an order -- you can even do it through the website. Or just give us a call in NY or LA. Or stop by either office and then you can check them out in person as we have demo models in the showrooms.

Today a RedUser stopped by the New York office and I walked him through the setup. He took it home with him to Canada along with some Formatt filters and Element Technica gear. Happy to help.

I played with the Mff-1 today at Abel Burbank, nice piece of kit. Now if there was only a 15mm (Studio) swing away adapter from Zacuto (hint, hint).
