Thanks man! I am going to check that out. I'll post here when I find a solution.

So I have been doing some research but none of my queries are returning what I need. I am trying to use the wooden handle from my Aaton LTR 54 on my rig for the Blackmagic Pocket cam. I have a Lemo 2? plug that has been chopped on one side, so I want to use that with a 2.5mm plug so I can go directly into the LANC port of the Blackmagic. Can someone tell me what the yellow and green wires are for on this cable? I assume red/black is +/-.

I have been trying to find the sensor size of the si-2k but I haven't had any luck. Will my s16 lenses cover on this camera? They cover on the RED in 2k. Sensor sizes are all over the place so it is kinda confusing.

Mitch,

I sent you a message via the Abel site.

Nathan, I'm not sure where you are located, but if in the US then you could send the camera to our office in either NY or LA and we could get it off without causing damage. We could also check to make sure the camera's mount had not been torqued out of place and could perform other service on the camera. Feel free to contact me directly. Abel Cine Tech is the dealer and service center for Aaton in the US.

Thanks Mitch, I believe this is actually your old camera. One of the cases has your name on it. I bought it from Vincent a year or so ago. The people using my gear had an insurance policy but they were shooting in Louisiana. I am in Alabama so it has been about 2 weeks since they wrapped their shoot. Do you think I can still contact these people and have them make a claim? Doing favors for friends of friends sucks.

So I get my gear back from a shoot and I notice they left the Aaton to B-mount adapter on the camera. I later get an email from the guy saying it was stuck. What I think might have happened was that they were changing lenses with the adapter in place and were somehow torquing the adapter tighter every time. This thing is tight. I even tried tapping lighting with a hammer, probably not the best idea, though nothing was harmed. What can I do?

all the guy wants at the table is a small piece of cheese cake...
