Back Focus Fixing

[Jase]

If you were swapping lenses between the Red 18-50mm, the Red 50-150mm and say a couple cooke primes, would you recommend setting the back focus for each lens still? Would the Red lenses not match together?

Cheers.

Hi,

You should never need to change the FFD on the camera. Motion picture lenses need to be correctly collimated so the can be exchanged at will and always be correct.

We are also creating a video tutorial for swapping mounts and setting backfocus. They will be posted on REDUSER and RED.com soon...

Was this video tutorial made? If so, where can I find it?
