VIDEO: How to change focus with REDMOTE

Quick and dirty for someone who asked: http://www.seandbrown.com/how-to-cha...n-red-scarlet/

Thank you for this Sean!

Hey Sean. Cheers. What is that larger monitor that you are using?

[SeanBrown]

Just a HDMI tv. Nothing fancy.. Not for color correct viewing by any means but good reference for framing/directors monitor. I think it cost $120.00 at fred myers.
Your welcome. Thanks for watching

I did have to set my HDMI to 720P to get it to work on that. My Bigger TV can do the 1080 HDMI

Thanks for the video, are you able to manually rack focus w/ the redmote (as opposed to using the green box Auto Focus method)?

If so, how smooth is the focus stepping on the 24-70 v1?

Thanks & Cheers

Yes, you can manually rack focus. I did it with my Canon 24mm L f1.4 and there is a bit of a delay, and it jumps in increments depending on the focus measurements available in the menu, so I don't think it's practical for live focus pulling.

Thanks for the heads up Julio

[SeanBrown]

Like Julio said yes you can but not a great pull. This method I showed is great for having the camera where you can't get to it and need to change focus.

Yes you can,

as told in the video

1- Select first focus point with the rectangle then press enter
2- Select second focus point with the rectangle then press enter
3- Start recording... and every time you press the rec button halfway you will do rack focus between selected points.
4- At the moment you are not able to adjust the rack focus speed, as I read somewhere here, it w'll be release with the new beta firmware.

Thanks for writing it out Koray
