We just finished a significant R&D effort with regard to the Brevis35 adapter. Our mission was to improve edge falloff/vignetting with long or slower lenses...a very common complaint with adapters.

Here's a quick clip with the Brevis35, prototype (interchangeable) imaging element, and using first an s35 format movie lens (16x22 image frame) and then an f2.8/5.3 28-200mm Canon zoom lense. On the slow lens, I zoomed out so you can see the imaging element in place. The zoom lens was set at f8! It would be an understatement to say that we're pretty thrilled with the R&D effort :-)

We've also just introduced a new adjustable height Brevis-to-rails support, and very soon...15mm carbon fibre tubing in 30, 45 and 60mm lengths. Our flip unit (module will be usable on any adapter...not just ours) will be announced shortly :-)
 
Dennis, the 35mm adapter menace ;-)

One of these days they'll elect you mayor of Thunder Bay (or at least build you a statue)
 
Hi Dennis,

Excellent news ! Can't wait for the flip unit ! How much of light loss is expected ?

Dennis is on vacation until Monday. But before he left he said the new mounts would be announced and (I think) ready to go next week. Meaning all mounts will feature external micro-adjustability to set backfocus. Can't wait.
