Focus This!
DVXuser Sponsor
I need three production model testers on my $299 follow focus, called the indiFocus. Preferably you should have your own rail system--15mm rods, 60 mm oc--but have been developing an add-on of a $199 rail system. I can send the rails too, just keep in mind that they aren't ready for production yet.
Type of camera: DVX-100 or 100a. Have used prototypes, pre-productions models, and now the productions unit on various DVX-100 & 100a's, so I know they work, but now the acid test: you get the device, follow the directions to make it work, and call if you have problems (tech support).
What I require: an email with name address, phone number, type of camera you have, length of time you'll shoot with it.
Compensation: We'll get you a production model, for free. Why not just keep the one we give you? I want it back to deconstruct it and make sure that no parts are wearing improperly, that the gearing mechanism is still in spec, etc.
Best email address is at timovel@hotmail.com
If you have a Canon Xl1/s or XL2 I am interested in your trying it also; just keep in mind that the testing I have done on an XL1 was all of twenty minutes. We put it on, tried it out, filmed a ten second test, and left; didn't have access to it like the DVX.
I am uncertain how to post photos, so email me and I can forward you them.
(As a side note: I missed my August 1st self-imposed deadline. However, the price will still be $299.99 with a $15.95 shipping and handling charge. )
Finally, I may not have mentioned that there is no modification to your camera needed. It does not require a toothed ring to be added to your camera. So in theory any DV camera with a rotating focus ring will work. So multiple cameras can be used; with an approximate 5-10 minute change-over time between cameras.
