Hi,
I'd like to ask some general advice for all focus pullers out there.
I have a choice of building a set of primes, one of the choices are ZF based zeiss and obviously being Nikon they focus 'the wrong way' (although i have to say i prefer the idea of twisting a follow focus away from me for distance, but i digress)
In general how do people feel about that these days?
a) Just get on with it, different direction, that's fine. No problem.
B) Have to add a reversing gear to FF or it's very painful.
c) Some other result...?
Personally i don't mind, but that's not my job and there will be situations where i'm not even DPing and the kit is used by others. So i don't want to build a ZF set to discover that in general it's a real pain. I'd rather not change the FF permanently (other lenses i have are the right way round) and i'd really rather not have to add extra weight to the rig with a reversing gear.
Perhaps there are simpler solutions?
many thanks in advance
Paul
