anchoricex Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I apologize in advance if this strikes you as extremely noob, because it really is, I know. I've actually never used a follow focus before but I'm looking to get a few Rokinon/Samyang cine lenses because they come with the declicked rings and teeth for follow focuses.My question is, are these teeth a "universal" size that most all follow focus systems utilize?Also feel free to throw out affordable compatible follow focuses that can attach to a standard rod system.Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M Carter Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 The RockSam teeth should mate with any "cinema" style FF. The size (actually the gear pitch) isn't 100% standard - some ENG lenses are different - but in general terms, an FF made for DSLRs/etc will mate with the Rockinon, and with all the aftermarket lens gears from Redrock, eBay, etc. Some FF's sell various gear pitch drive gears for other lenses.Here's a link:http://www.zacuto.com/follow-focus-pullerAlso, a killer deal on an FF is the "Fotga DPII" - they're on amazon, mine was $170 or so, and you can buy spare gears and locking pins as well. Pretty shockingly good for the $$, I'm sure others will chime in with their picks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leslie Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 from the little i know, 0.8 is the standard. Is that the smallrig mini follow focuser ? as i have been looking at that myself. Seems their about $95- 110 at the moment on ebay which to me seem like a reasonable price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
