Did someone say easy?

I'm not entirely sure, but, I have heard people going for non coated. Not sure if it's because of the price or what? The orginal design for this adapter people went with uncoated. Hope that helps.
 
i don't think it matters if it's coated or not. On the nikon d screens the condensors are non coated.

Btw make sure your tube is long enough as i think the tubing specified in the beginning post is too short if you're planning on just using one +7 achromat. I may need to add a macro cause as of now i can't focus in all the way on the gg without it going out of focus.
 
Hd-100???

Hd-100???

Is there any reason why this adaptor wouldn't work on a JVC HD-100?

I realise I'll need a step down ring from 82mm.

nothing would stop it from working, but really, if you're thinking of HD, look into spinning or vibrating. Or buy jim's Diffuser and build this. Most hd's pick up on the grain way too much on static adapters.
 
I'm looking to find a way to make a rod support using only thorlabs. They have a bunch of stuff and wanted to see if anyone has tried that approach? Or if this ever worked out for anyone?

What do you think about using this:

plus these

in order to compensate for the extra length needed to put the macro inside?

I'm thinking maybe having a 1" lens tube ahead of pic 1 and the 2" behind it... then let's run the support (pic 1) down to one of these:

If you had a 1" rail like that and a secure way to fix it to pic 1 using one of the sliding bolts that they supply... it seems like you could have a really simple rail system using one rail instead of two for dirt cheap and it should totally unify a DVX with the DOF adapter.

What do you think?

Thanks for the help by the way... this is one area where I'm green as grass.

Is this footage form the new adapter with the moving mechanism or from the static one? It seems to hold it's ground around low light...but it's kind of small to fully evaluate it. Any chance we can see some rack focus on a tripod?
 
This is the static design. I'll try to do some rack focus tomorrow with some people.
Here's a pic of the inside of the adapter. Also, post higher res clips of the old and new ones.

the macro should be 72mm though right or is it 52mm and you put a 72mm conversion so you can screw it to the camera??
 
it's a step down ring/ or step up i can't remember, but the macro isn't 72. Definitely 52mm. I made a new thread showing how to make a moving adapter. check it out as well.
