Liszon Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Hopefully he doesn't go too crazy with the pricing. At the end of the day he's still a rookie in lens manufacturing, and Iscoramas are flying really low these days:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/191327964612 Will see, said he will announce the price next week.

yannis.zach Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Based on his anamorphic's price, the focus module will have a good price too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rook Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Price announced, €550 http://on.fb.me/1uiTplk SLR Magic 2x, FM Lens Focus Module, Rectilux.. the heat is on! This seems to be different market than Rectilux is going for. This FM module comes in at about 800 bucks (+ your projector lens), but the rectilux is over 4 thousand dollars!

rook Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Hey, guys, does anyone know what rail mount he is using? The one seen in this video: The hoop mount thing? Where can I get one? It's hard to find something when you don't know what it's called. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikkor Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Seems like the isco ultra stars also perfectly fit (70mm). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very similar. http://www.linkdelight.com/PK013-FOTGA-DP500-15mm-Rail-Rod-Support-Release-Plate.html Thanks for the link. But I guess I wasn't clear enough. I'm looking for the circular device that is mounted on the rails and holds the lens. Sorry for the confusion, I realize I'm not being entirely clear. I'm just not sure what to call it. "Lens hoop" "Anamorphic lens holder" "Rail mounted lens clamp".... I've found something similar, but the one in the video is far more compact.

QuickHitRecord Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 From one of comments on the Facebook page: Purchase includes: focus module and some rings for mounting, rail system as an example mounting. I'm assuming that the "rings for mounting" are what you are looking for. Cosimo murgolo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dahlfors Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Damn... Getting very tempted into ordering one. If those rail mount rings are included, it would also ease up the setup of the Isco Ultrastar. It can be a pain to get it aligned properly with clamps when you want to switch taking lenses.My main issue with the Ultrastar has always been the hassle with the mounting and the double focusing. Seems like this FM lens would solve both my pet peeves with it!I've heard people not liking the look of the Ultrastars (maybe due to lack of flares), but I must say I kinda like the look myself: http://imgur.com/a/p2tz0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dahlfors Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 What taking lens are you using in these shots?I took these stills when I wanted to find out the performance of the Ultrastar. I was waiting for my preorder of the D800, so I had to shoot it on my APS-C Nikon D200. Mostly shot at f/5.6 to f/11 in APS-C to see how sharp the Ultrastar was.Most shots, probably all of these shots were with the Nikkor AI-S 105mm f/2.5. I've found that the Ultrastar performs nicely with that one, both in APS-C & full frame.For APS-C you can go as wide as 50mm f/1.4 on the Ultrastars, which is pretty wide. But I prefer using the Ultrastar with the AI-S 85mm f/2 or AI-S 105mm f/2.5 as taking lenses, be it on full frame or APS-C.
