SGPRO setup pictures,

now thatza sexy beast!! I have had actors say they like video because the cameras are smaller and less intimidating...but I dont think this one qualifies. Bring on some clips!! :)
 
congrats.

Shes a beauty.

i just got my Aluminum Rails to go with my Prototype SGpro today..... SOOOO happy. the are so much better than the plastic razor sharp, SG35 rails.

:)
 
Its a Petroff matte box and petroff tudio follow focus. Very light very durable, i prefer them over arriflex, which tends to be heavier.
 
Damn the footage looks awesome.
I have to ask though..what happened when they start skipping? It looks faded and really grainy.

thats called "70's look" haha
 
Hi , sorry haven't been around to log in. That footage was shot as soon as i put the sgpro on my camera, with various lenses, i literaly just walked into the yard and started filming the kids, so it's all a bit hand held and i'm pulling focus as we go, the other lenses were a nikon 50mm and 100mm one lens was a 70-210 zoom which looks MASSIVE!! and is good fun to tote around...Bazooka. There is a pic somewhere i will try and post link to it, wayne might host it.
Anyway the skipping bit is a bit faded and grainy as it was darker because i was messing with the iris etc, by the way i managed to stop the lens down to F8 with no visible grain, anyway I was messing with some color correction settings on the Avid to rectify this and couldn't be bothered to tweek and mess for too long so i just left it, yeah does look a bit 70's i suppose. Anyway, shot some footage for a band today and will edit a bit together soon. Thanks for the feedback guys.
 
oh yeah, it was all shot 50i, no progressive so there are some motion artifacts, and a couple of times i didnt zoom far enough through the adapter. As i said i threw on the SGPRO out of the box and played for a bit.
 
its a Sigma 28-70 2.8, its not the best i'd say for this setup, as the focus throw is a very short, i'm working on a PL mount for the SGPRO, so i can use my Zeiss distagons, need to check a few things first with wayne. i'll post a link to a picture of it with a monster lens give me a sec.
 
hay, i posted about your lens before i saw u posted. Please dont think i was trying to be a smart azz about your f stop. Question: i have been looking into different ways to support the lens. I have a 135mm that is long and heavy. What did u use in the picture and what are some other brands or devises that can do it. I have been look but havent found much.
 
I used a lens support for 15mm rods i had laid around, you can find them about on ebay etc, then just adapt it to fit your lens, or make one.
