F3: Sony f3 and fujinon cabrio 19-90

[Sparky874]

Hi all. I have a weeks shooting coming up in shanghai and I was thinking about hiring a fujinon 19-90 for the job. I would be covering a wide range of footage. It would be quite an expensive hire but the one lens would cover all situtions and I just love shooting slog on the f3. If I didn't rent that lens I'd leave my F3 at home and bring my pdw700 on the job (saving me a grand or so!) So my question! What are your experiences using that lens, looks like a great set up. And it doesn't seem to heavy, front heavy either. Thanks all. Sparky

It's a great lens and integrates well with the camera. If you use any accessories on the back of your camera, such as a large battery adapter, a monitor or a video recorder, then this will certainly help balance the rig better.

Is there any calibration or wonky lens setting with the F3/Cabrio combination, or is it pretty much plug and play?
