Hey everyone,
I'm new here but am searching for at least a partial solution to a Red focus issue that came up yesterday. We're shooting a low budget feature on an Epic with the only lens available being the Red 18-85 t2.9. Our canon mount is supposed to have been here weeks ago. I'm pulling focus on an Epic for the first time. We're using a Redrock follow.
I don't have the ability to collimate the lens but I'm sure we have picked up a back focus issue. The markings on the barrel of the lens are too coarse to measure with a tape and set focus. so I've been using a combination of zoom and magnify. Peaking has been relatively useless as we are shooting fairly low lighting. Yesterday I noticed on a scene we were shooting at 6' distance at 32mm, that the focus was not the same at 32mm as it was at 85mm. Since then, my confidence has been lacking. I'm feeling good at 70-85mm and. But near and wide has got me a little rattled.
Has anybody got any experience or advice with this issue?
Thanks in Advance
