Question for SGPro Rev 3 users!

[tatsuo]

Hey guys
Does anyone know where the film plane to measure focus is on the sgpro. I am hoping it is a lil down the tube as thats where my lenses are corresponding when i check focus though could an authority step in as maybe my lenses arent reliable. Want to see if i can use my canon fds focus marks to pull focus etc like you do with cine lenses. I could be dreaming though.
Cheers Sam

didnt understand what you said about the film plane yadda yadda yadda, because im just learning about this - so maybe someone can explain that to me too-..., but i have a new super ultra baby -SGPRO- and would like to know too!!!

Im not sure what the measurement is, but I am working on a film at the moment and we pull focus on FD lenses using a tape measure and the markings on the lens barrel and its accurate. Dont just rely on that though, check its sharp on the screen too

Where do you line the tape measure up to on the camera side. that is the mark i am looking for that is where the film plane should be

the film plane is going to be where the GG is.

The handle on the top of the unit is for measuring.
