They said they were going to show up there, and they have their Follow Focus System in the works... So any scoop on that?
 
I just spoke with the owner of Redrock and when they said they were going to be attending NAB, they meant in 2009. If they remember.

Can anyone give a report on their new Mattebox, powerpod and monitor? Looks pretty cool on their site.
 
I'll have more details later but I did stop by and see Brian from redrock.
They are in the JVC booth with a VERY impressive setup. They have the JVC 24p HDV camera setup with the M2 a Mattebox and alot lot more. I'll be able to spend some time there today.
 
Hey Guys,
Please come see us in the JVC booth. We're also in many workshops on HD etc. I believe the guys in the 'color space' section of the Panasonic booth has a PL M2 as well!

We're also displaying the new follow focus. Please stop by!
 
Brian,

Does this mean that the PL mount version is available now? Might you PM me with the information on this. I only need the adapter - no rods or case or other extras.

Drop me a line when you're settled? I sent an email to your sales account.

I'm stoked to get the S4s on my HVX. Mmmm... S4s...

And James just said on the Redrock Forum, the Follow Focus will be shipping in two weeks!

Let's see how this develops, but great news indeed!
 
Yes, we finally received the final lens gears and drive gears from our manufacturing facility. We have been in the JVC booth (and informally in other booths and demos) demoing the M2, microFollowFocus, and microPowerPod (the microMatteBox didn't make the timeframe for NAB).


Also, big news that Redrock received the Mario Award for 2006 NAB. This award highlights technical achievements in the industry, and only ten are given out for the entire show. They have not posted the 2006 awards on their website, but here's a reference:

We are still here at NAB, but when we get back, we will post some of the pictures and images, including the final microFollowFocus.

I had a chance to try out the new follow focus. It's very smooth, has a good solid feel to it. The design of the lens gears is ingenious. Three sizes of flexible gears will be available which will fit on practically any lens.
