A1 - Letus Flip - Rails? Universal?

[John Scott 3]

I'm looking to purchase some rails for my A1 since I'm going to start shooting with lenses over 100mm. Can anyone help me find a good set? Are there specific rails that I need or can I just use any for my setup? Also, I'm having trouble racking focus without shaking the lens (it's very slight, but it's shaking). Would a follow focus help with that problem? Could it be the lenses? I know I shake a little naturally but it's kind of aggrevating. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.

you need a follow focus to get rid of the shake. As well as practice. Not so sure about the rails and such.

I just bought a baseplate and rods from Hyson Films. Joel will custom cut rods to what ever size you need. I got 24" just to make sure they were long enough for the matte box and long lenses (I have a letus FE).

Go with the indiFOCUS and indiRAILS. Tim, the creator/owner is an advertiser of DVXUser and makes a great product. You will be very happy with the cost and quality.

I sent an email to info@indifocus.com so request information and specs for my setup and to try to place an order but have yet to hear back. Does anyone know the average wait time for these products? Thanks.

I think I had mine within a few days from ordering it.
