OConnor/ Anton Bauer AND Scarlet!!!

if I get the o focus for still lenses, can I later upgraded it to be suitable for pl glass in the future?

My O-Grips and O-Box arrived. Lovely kit.

Heading to Berkey System tomorrow to start designing something akin to the 15mm LWS solutions from VF / RED / x / Element Technica.

Planning to include a shoulder mount similar to the RED dovetail shoulder pad, but with a mount off the back for my Switronix V-Type battery mount plate to counterbalance the rig.

I'll post photos / links when it's done.

Berkey makes some great stuff. Hopefully they'll get on the RED train. The more options/designs we have to choose from, the better.

That would be interesting to see Bill!
Am scratching my head right now trying to PRE (scarlet) visualize some mixed-brand combo of these elements too.
Look forward to seeing what you come up with...

Good ? - I would like to know this too. The cine system sells seperately from the still lens system. I have both mounts so would need the FF to be cross compatible...

Sorry... I just had to adjust the levels...

Thank You!

+3 on wanting clarification on this too.

Would like a system that is compatible for both EF and PL lenses.

Hi Guys,

Here is the deal on the O-Focus. There are two versions:

O-Focus DM Photo Set (this has the new Photo Hard Stop Handwheel)
O-Focus DM Cine Set (this has a CFF-1 Cine Handwheel)


The O-Focus bridge has a 1:0.75 (rounded) internal ratio. So one rotation of input gives you approximately 3/4 of a rotation of output.

The Photo Hard-stop Handwheel has no internal transmission, i.e. it's 1:1.
The Cine Handwheel’s internal transmission is 1:1.8

Multiplying the ratios out, you get:

Cine Handwheel on O-Focus DM is approx. 1:1.4 (this is well suited for cine lenses and is a ratio close to that of the CFF-1.)

Photo Handwheel on O-Focus DM is approx. 1:0.75 (this is well suited for shorter throw still lenses and expands the focus scale allowing for a longer more accurate focus pull.)

So what we have done is created a follow focus that can be optimized for still or cine lenses simply by changing the handwheel. Some customers have been buying the photo set for example and then adding a second cine handwheel to work with either type of lens. You could even have a photo handwheel on one side and a cine on the other (since it is a double sided unit.)

Here is a photo of two hard-stop handwheels on the O-Focus:



Please let me know if there are further questions on this thanks....
