Cleaning out a buncha stuff. Prices includes shipping/paypal in continental US unless otherwise noted. Also, willing to trade/buy for Nano stands, magic arm, super clamp, nano clamp, etc grip gear. I have pictures of everything, I’ll post/email pics upon request. Email is best: mindlee (@) gmail (dot) com
1. EF mount arsat arax 35mm shift lens for $310. Very interesting lens especially if using for video. It has a smooth aperture ring like cine lenses and a white marking ring around the lens.
2. Off Camera ETTL Cord for Canon for $30. Like new!

3. *SOLD* FD Mount 50mm f1.8 for $30. Very compact little lens. Lens cap is a little chipped but lens works fine.
4. *SOLD* GO35 static adapter (modified) $50. I eventually stopped using this adapter because I kept having to clean it. I don’t recommend it for anyone using it for serious production but might be good for someone who wants to use it for DIY purposes. Body consist for a 58mm threaded cap, 58-52mm step down ring, 3” thorlab tube (52mm thread), canon FD mount, spare nikon F mount, FD body cap (doesn’t fit well though). Inside includes a few retaining rings, spacer, diffuser, and an achromat (chipped on the edge in one of my frequent cleaning incidents).
4. *SOLD* Giant Squid Lavalier Mono Mic - $20, some paint wear but works fine. It has a 10’ cable. I had it sitting around for a long time, then rediscovered it recently as a back up lav for my 5D2. It’s a really hot mic which is good because of the 5D’s weak preamp. More info here:

5. *SOLD* $14 steadycam (local sale) - You’ve all seen it. If not, refer to this: http://steadycam.org/ This guy sells his kit for $40+paypal/shipping. If you’re around San Francisco, you can pick mines up for $14 and save yourself the trouble of gathering the parts and making one. It’s kinda heavy and bulky so shipping cost probably kills the deal but someone wants it that bad, I can look up shipping rates. Mines is a little different, found another part to attached to the ends that does not require drilling through the metal end caps which is not easy to drill through. I’m not including weights because I can find where I put them (you probably need to different counterweight for different cameras anyway).
The rest are just stuff that I found while cleaning, not worth much but might be useful to some. If anyone buys any of the stuff above, I’ll throw in any of the following for free.
6. Gears for DIY follow focus. Includes 2 spoke gear, one cut for the FD 50/1.8 listed above, the other one unopened. I also have two drive gears. One is the same pitch as the spoke gears (I think its 48p). The other one came with my Cavision follow focus which I bought off a guy that owned a JVC camera so I’m guessing fujinon 0.6 mod.
7. Ikelite Gear sleeve. I bought this because I read somewhere that Ikelite uses 32p gears. It’s not 32p. I dunno what it is. Not sure about the size but it looks like this:

8. various audio adapters:
- 3.5mm mini jack to 2.5mm submini plug (I think it’s stereo on both ends)
- 2.5mm submini jack to 3.5mm mini plug (ditto)
- 3.5mm stereo mini jack to 3.5mm mono mini jack
- Red and White composite to headphone jack - For anyone who’s camera has AV out but no headphone jack. I tested this with the 5D2 running Magic Lantern, works like a charm but I’ve made my own cable since so I no longer need this.
9. FD M20 Macro tube. Has some JB weld on it from experimenting back in the 35mm adapter days.
10. various step rings:
52-58
58-52
52-49 (Again, has some JB weld on it)
49-37
11.*SOLD* One inch Thorlab tube. 52mm thread.
12. Unthreaded 58mm condensor lens (good for DIY loupe)
13. Threaded 58mm macro lens (ditto)
Anyone else feel a bit of nostalgia for 35mm adapters?
