M2 DVX question

[jefft99]

Just received my M2...In order to get the motor out of the frame, I have to zoom the DVX lens all the way in...Even that just barely gets it out. Is this normal?

Do let me know...

Thanks

You should be right around z85 and MF34 with the DVX. Check the redrockmicro forums. In order to achieve the above settings with my rig, I had to move the motor down slightly.

How do you move the moter down...? I'll also check out those RR forums....

I zoom to 75 and then focus at Macro 32 or 33. The image rocks here!

but you're adjusting for letterbox, correct?

you are totally correct! I totally forgot about that factor!

Either way, I'm totally digging the stills in your HorrorFest thread. In terms of image sharpening, are you doing a lot in the scene settings or in post? Or any at all?
