the Go35 pro is settling somewhere around 600$

the Vibrating GG one, isnt built yet so no idea probably somehwere around 800$ (guestimate)
 
The G35 is $1,000, plus $150 for DVX or HVX mount plus $150 for Nikon mount,
$1300 total. new version will have vibrating GG, for use with HD cameras.

Redrock M2 is $1,000. for the "Indie kit" which includes adapter, lens & camera mounts, and 15mm rods.

M42, Canon EFS - for sure.
I've seen somewhere anouncment that they will support in the future C and CS mount and possibly will drop all bayonets. And they will sell adapters for C to bayonet.

point of clarification

point of clarification

I love this thread. The resulting summary will be widely used/referred to, though I expect it will probably change WEEKLY. I just wanted to add that the micro35 is now called the M2. I'm sure you guys know that...but for many of us confused by the wide range of products and product names, it will be helpful to clarify that the micro35 is the same thing as the M2.
 
Nice thread,
I will be posting up final pictures of the SGpro rig very soon (in the next week or so).

Footage is to follow from the DVX100, FX-1 and XL2. Nick Bartleet ( http://www.pixelloft.com/ ) will be using the SGpro on one of his upcoming music videos, hooked up to a Z-1 (FX-1).

this thread does have potential, but im only now realizing how difficult it will be to get all this info alone.

but if everyone would take one of the adapters not yet found and post the things for it, ill put it all togehter in a nice order then it will be an official comparison of the adapters for all to stop searching through thread after thread looking for the adapter for them
 
There are THREE Go35 models. Taken from the FAQ I'm prep'ing:

Go35 SD
Price: $209
Format: NTSC/PAL DV

This static adapter is made with a propietary high quality hand-ground glass. It is an entry level adapter aimed at experimental filmmakers, students or video hobbyists looking to add a new dimension to their productions, without the hassle of DIY or the higher expense of other adapters. The grain structure and light loss of this adapter are not suited for the most demanding professional users, but instead will create an interesting aesthetic for your footage.

Go35 Pro
Price: around $600
Format: NTSC/PAL DV, some HDV cameras

Also static, this adapter utilises a proprietary “near grainless” focusing screen to achieve unparalleled image quality rivalling the look of more expensive adapters, static and moving. For examples of this adapter in action, click the following links for high quality h.264 QuickTime clips:

http://go-35/vids/outside1-h264-2pass.mov
http://go-35/vids/outside2-h264-2pass.mov
http://go-35/vids/outside3-h264-2pass.mov
http://go-35/vids/macroplay-h264-2pass.mov


Go35 HD
Format: All
Price: around $750

This adapter meets the highest optical standards possible by moving the focusing screen in a random nature. Powered by rechargable NiMH cells, the adapter has long run times with each charge and the batteries can be switched out for pre-charged cells easily. Built around Academy Gate framing, the adapter has aspect markings to aid shooters looking to get the ideal frame dimensions. Currently in development, a working model of this adapter is expected in the first week of May, 2006.

very well, that explains it.

I wish someone could do a nice shootout with most bought adapters, from Letus, to Go35, to Brevis, to M2, Sg35, its really hard to choose one now adays. Its like a wedding dress for a woman, so many out there, but which one really 'suits' her, and she'll never know until she tries it.
 
I second that. It seems by the number of views, this has become the thread of interest for many....of which I am certainly one. Onward march!
 
MY SGpro should be here in a week, i willl post up tons of footage. So you guys can see.
 
man, im going to have to devote an entire day to filling this thing up. But once i have, man, its going to make finding the right adapter soo much easier.

and dont forget guys. If you can add to the list yourself. then please, by all means, do it! :)
