OG 2013 Pocket Cinema - Viewfinder Zoom?
Raaf Sundquist replied to Raaf Sundquist's topic in BlackMagic Design
Problem solved - DOUBLE PRESS "ok" does it. -
The manual suggests that a user can zoom the viewfinder by pressing "ok" - that isn't working for me for one reason or another. Instead I get random metadata and a prompt to "save." So let's start there, can you actually zoom the viewfinder? USE CASE: I'm trying to improve focus on C mount lenses.

Best 16 mm Camera for shooting action shots outdoors
Raaf Sundquist replied to George Hill's topic in General Discussion
@Tyler Purcell - I know you love the Beaulieu 2016 quartz but I note that while you mentioned it, you didn't recommend it on this thread. Is this because they are so difficult to find? -
Angenieux 25mm f0.95 - Filter?
Raaf Sundquist replied to Raaf Sundquist's topic in Lenses & Lens Accessories
A month!!!! Now you tell me!! What kind of wild goose chase have you sent me on Joe!?!?!? 🙂 Kidding aside - I was about to go the SK Grimes approach so this is a life saver. -
Angenieux 25mm f0.95 - Filter?
Raaf Sundquist replied to Raaf Sundquist's topic in Lenses & Lens Accessories
And for anyone else looking for the same for Kern Switars - Joe's response led me to this site: https://rafcamera.com/adapters/thread-adapters Where I was able to locate an adapter for the 10mm and 26mm Kern Switars too. Thank you Joe! -
Angenieux 25mm f0.95 - Filter?
Raaf Sundquist replied to Raaf Sundquist's topic in Lenses & Lens Accessories
@Joe Fike - amazing!!! ...and the VND is exactly where I was going with this. Now I can use this all day every day and again at night! Thank you so much. Raaf -
Seemed like a great idea - get a fast lens. So I got an Angenieux 25mm f0.95. I made the assumption that I could find a filter for it. I'm not sure that assumption was correct. Does anyone know the diameter/thread of this lens? Has anyone found a ring that will fit and allow for step up? Have the same issue with Kern Switars 10mm, 26mm, and 50mm. (did some searching already but seems like this remains a perplexing issue) Thanks for any insight. Raaf

Custom Camera Cases - Where? Who?

Thanks for both responses @Jaron Berman and @Matthew Figueroa - these are the options I was looking for! -
Custom Camera Cases - Where? Who?
Raaf Sundquist replied to Raaf Sundquist's topic in Camera Operating & Gear
Nevermind... Looks like the best option is to cut all the foam myself. I've got this. Thanks... -
Hi, Can anyone recommend a resource for getting a custom case created for a smaller sized 16mm camera and gear? The emphasis needs to be on shock absorption and dust resistance. Something like a pelican case with extensive, well fitted padding. Thanks for any recommended resources. Raaf

WTB - Bolex Aspheron 5.5mm for Switar 10mm
Raaf Sundquist replied to Raaf Sundquist's topic in Cine Marketplace
Volker, I didn't receive anything here through direct messages or on my external email account - maybe you messaged someone else? I sent you a direct message here on this site and it shows that you have still not opened it. Do you mind looking for the message I sent and sharing the photos? Thanks! Raaf -

WTB - Bolex Aspheron 5.5mm for Switar 10mm
Raaf Sundquist replied to Raaf Sundquist's topic in Cine Marketplace
@Borja Llorens - I'm interested in buying your Aspheron 5.5mm for Switar 10mm. -
Well that answers that! Again - thank you so much - I never want to wear out my welcome but your experience is invaluable.
-
Thanks Dom - very helpful and now it's off! So now for the even dumber question. There is a big gear on the winding handle, that when replacing onto the camera, that keeps it offset at the same distance as when the Rex O Fader was in place. Is there a 1) way to remove that gear so that the handle fits more closely to the camera body? 2) is this just the way the handle is supposed to fit? ...or 3) there is another handle that should be used? Thanks again! Making progress!
-
All, I need to remove my Rex O Fader to install the remote cable trigger. Does anyone have the instructions for this process? Thanks, Raaf

Angenieux 17-68mm F2.2 Type L2 - Reflex Compatibility?
Raaf Sundquist replied to Raaf Sundquist's topic in Bolex
Thanks Dom - this too is helpful. I'll test it across a range of focal lengths apertures - maybe it will be great wide open! -
WTB - Bolex Aspheron 5.5mm for Switar 10mm
Raaf Sundquist replied to Raaf Sundquist's topic in Cine Marketplace
Oh no SPAIN!!!! Anywhere but Spain. I am joking of course - all the good camera items seem to be in Europe. I just sent you a message - hopefully we can work something out. (My parents took me to Valencia when I was a kid - so beautiful!) -
I know they're hard to find...but if you've got a Bolex Aspheron 5.5mm wide angle for Switar 10mm that you're interesting in parting with, let's talk! Thanks!

Angenieux 17-68mm F2.2 Type L2 - Reflex Compatibility?
Raaf Sundquist replied to Raaf Sundquist's topic in Bolex
Thanks Dom - that's exactly information I was looking for and the brochure is a bonus. Now that you've confirmed, I'll just compensate at lower than 50mm. Again - thanks so much! -
Friends, I have an Angenieux 17-68mm F2.2 Type L2 that I have not yet tested with my H16 Rex 4. I am unfamiliar with decoding the Type designations of these lenses. This one is a Type L2 - for those knowledgable about these lens types, will the L2 work nicely with the reflex Bolex? If it isn't ideal, I'd appreciate any tips for compensation. Thanks! Raaf
-
Thanks Dom.
-
Apologies if this specific question has been asked and answered... Does the viewfinder image quality improve at all between the Rex 4 and the SBM? Thanks, Raaf

@Dennis Toeppen - Have you tried a brisk walk around the block?
