QuickHitRecord Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I ordered one of these nifty lens supports ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/230749873410?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_1233wt_1398 ) to take some of the weight off of my GH2 when I have my Canon FD 50mm and Bell&Howell mounted on it. It works, but between two focusing mechanisms and an aperture ring, the only non-rotating part to brace the support against is the mounting clamp, and that has a screw holding/mounting it to the anamorph so I cannot remove it (otherwise, there will only be two screws holding it in place and it will drop the lens). When I do mount it this way (i.e. lens support only making contact with 1/3 of the lens clamp), I get a lot of drag when focusing my taking lens. I am looking for a better solution. Has anyone come across this issue before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
