LEX does not align properly

[Austinv]

So I have me LEX and ive used it quite a few times now and I just noticed today but it is not lined up properly with the rails in between. Im using the proteus rails from cinevate and I find that the my DVX is what is making the rig crooked.

Has anyone experienced this problem??

You might want to put up some pictures of the problem.

I've got a lot of experience with this, but it's all using the Ultimate. Sorry....

Use the Zacuto Rig like I do.

 

[Austinv]

well descibe your ultimate experience they are similar in size and shape.

Obviously im not going to use a zacuto rig, since I already have rails

On the Ultimate, you take the front part off, loosen three screws and slide the GG to the left or to the right. I've also had good luck loosening the screws that mount the adaptor to the camera lens. Then I tighten them one at a time while I'm looking through the viewfinder. You'll be able to see the framing change left/right and up/down as you tighten the screws. But it's only a small adjustment, not as big an adjustment as the moving the GG.

THANKS, thats a good idea, never thought of that.
