It's been awhile since I've been on here, and since I've done much in the way of filmmaking, but I've been trying to get back into the mix of things and I thought I'd start out by putting together a 35mm adapter and rail setup.
I'm in the final stages of finishing it up. It needs some functional adjustments, but then all that's left is mostly cosmetic.
Here's some rough footage:

The thing is more than a bit unwieldy and took some getting used to so its not all that great. I also didn't mess with any of the camera settings so the low light stuff really blows. I have some newer stuff that looks better that I'll put up later.
It's a spinning CD setup with an OM mount. That footage was shot with a 50mm macro. I'm using some Logetronic optics from an industrail enlarger as an achromat, and they seem to work nicely. The camera needs to be lowered a bit, as well as some other generall adjustments.
Let me know what you guys think, and if you have any tips for improvements.
