Steve Goodloe Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 So I work at Montana State University we have 2 SR2's and 1 SR1. It gets really cold here in the winter. We have constantly run into a problem where once the DP puts the eyepiece to his or her eye, within five seconds the class has condensation forming on it. You could see how this can be a problem on long takes. Especially if your hand holding the camera. I was wondering if anyone knows a way to do something about this. Perhaps heating the eyepiece or something. Any suggestions would be welcome.

Stuart Brereton Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Heated eyepieces are available for a variety of cameras, Arri and other makes. A cheaper solution is to attach a couple of chemical handwarmers to the eyepiece with a rubber band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Rakoczy Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 I live in Florida and use an eyepiece heater for that very reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
