Would you pay $30 for DIY vibrating 35mm plans?

trinitysj,

That motor from hobbyengineering is (was) the Sanko motor. They have been out of stock for about 6 months though. They were getting this motor from solarbotics.com. Solarbotics has been out for 6 months as well. They both still show the picture of the Sanko motor, but in reality, they will most likely send you a smaller 12mm motor. A friend of mine here at DVXuser contacted Sanko in Japan some time ago and they no longer make the 14mm motor (haven't for some time). Now, people have been able to get the 12mm motor to make a good vibration pattern, but I have not found that to be the case when using the Plano-convex lens as the GG (it is too heavy for the motor).

The great part about using the plano-convex as both the condenser and the GG is that you don't have to worry about getting dust between the plano-convex and GG (when they are two separate pieces).

Your set up looks good though. It is just a matter of trial and error.
 
i just finished up my test footage... and am uploading it as soon as it is converted.. i am extremly pleased with the outcome... i used two different lenses as well have two different adapter front ends to switch between diffenent lens mounts.

will let you know when i get it uploaded..

i think I will call it the "J35" like the "snod35" or the "ed35" should call marlene's the "M35" lol.. just thinking outloud... sorry
 
Hey, I wanted to say thanks for the video on DOF. That was a great tut. i Learned somethings that I had forgot and some new things as well.

The test footage is up on the site now. http://www.techsavy.net/wfx/mini35.htm
Thanks again to all of you guys for all of the work that you have put into the whole mini35 DIY projects. I cant thank you guys enough for the wealth of information that i have found here.

Zoom lens for anything close to run and gun. Primes for the rest.

Primes are on average:
Better quality image
lighter
smaller
wider (fstop)
