HomeMade DOF Machine 4 Sale

[filmcraft]

I have made a homemade DOF machine that attaches to the DVX100A. Basicly it enables you to achieve a DOF on the camera. It's kind of like Red Rock Micro's machine.

Items included:

1 Completed Box including a Nikon f2 Camera
1 35mm Fmount Lens
1 135mm F Mount Lens
2 10x Macro (55mm)
2 55mm Spacers
1 1x Macro 55mm
1 2x Macro 55mm
1 4x macro 55mm
1 72mm-55mm step down adapter

Sample footage can be seen at www.kainemedia.com/Sample.mov

Note: This adapter is pretty complete, it needs slight tweaking like gluing and making a small rackmount so its even, but for the most part its done. I worked on it for weeks, I just ended up not likeing the look which is pretty close to like the mini 35. See for yourself.

I'm asking $350 OR exchange for a panasonic .8x adapter that will work on the dvx100a.

I'm not making any money on this, I'm basicly recouping my cost, in fact I'm even loosing money. Email me with questions.

I might be interested in the lenses if you're willing to sell them seperately. How fast are they and how old/in what condition?

[filmcraft]

Sell what seperately? How fast is What?

[Policar]

The 135mm and 35mm lenses. What mount are they (pre-ai, ai, ais, etc.) and how fast are they (what f-stop do they open up to?) I'm looking for two lenses just like those and since they're not necessary parts for an adapter I'm wondering if you'd sell them seperately.

Oh, they are f mount lens's f2 and the other is 2.8(35mm) no AF. Glass on both is clean.

[Policar]

Those sound like exactly the lenses that I need, but I don't have any need for a DOF adapter at this moment. Since the adapter works with any lenses, would you be willing to sell the lenses seperately?

[filmcraft]

How much are you offering for the lens's?

[Policar]

Are they in good shape, and how old are they? Any oil in the aperture blades, scratches, etc.? Give me a starting point and we can work from there.

[filmcraft]

Sorry for the delay I had to go out of town. The 135mm is in near perfect shape, the 35mm is a little beat up and uglu, however the lens and mechanism is excellent as far as I can tell. The thread on the front of the 35mm shows wear too.

Hmm....not sure I'm interested in the 35mm....how does, say, $45 plus shipping sound for the 135mm? I think that's about comperable to ebay prices, once you deduct the seller's fee.

[filmcraft]

Yes that does sound fair. I accept paypal if you use that?

[Policar]

I do have a paypal account. Do you have any references on ebay or anywhere? Also, is the 135mm lens nikon branded? Just curious.

[filmcraft]

Its branded Hanimex, my ebay id is inascent and my paypal is scott@kainemedia.com

[Policar]

Heh....I kind of hate to do this to you, but I assumed it was Nikon branded and probably can't offer that much if it's not just because I can get a similar lens cheaper elsewhere:

Nevertheless, I'm still interested if you're willing to lower the price. Sorry.

I am also intrested in making / getting a 35mm adapter for my DVX100. It makes all the difference in the world when you can control your DOF and Lense size. I would love to see some pictures and are you still selling the one you made?

[filmcraft]
