Going to 35mm via Cinevator. Adobe says ProPhoto RGB with a linear tone response curve (gamma of 1.0) is a good choice for digital cinema work. Is this what I should work with?

Spotted on the Vitec Group stand at NAB -- on one of the Reds they had on a Sachtler Artemis -- a nice clipon carbon fiber-looking matte box. Couldn't see a logo on it. Asked one of the Vitec guys what matte box it was, he had no idea, "something that came with a rental kit". Does anyone know...

Buying spare parts directly from Oconnor was a very complicated procedure last time, so I'm taking it to the forum this time... :) I want to buy some spares of the lever that locks the pan arm to the rosette. These look like they may be standard Kipp levers. Does anyone know what size will fit...

So I "accidentally" won this lens on ebay. I bid $1000 which I assumed would be much too low, but I seem to have won. All I need is a wide lens for 2K slomo work, so this should be good, right? It's Bayonet-mount, so I realize I'll have to get an adapter.

Zeiss ZF 18mm f/3.5

The Zeiss ZF lenses are popular here these days, so maybe someone can help. I'm looking for good focus gear rings for my ZF set, but the challenge is: The 100mm lens' focus barrel moves in and out when you focus. Unlike the other ZF lenses.The barrel moves approx 25mm out when you focus from...

Ugrip or Zacuto Zgrips? Which handgrips should I buy?

Well, this product description made me laugh out loud. RED Carbon Fibre rods: 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed WARNING: may explode. I guess they want people to buy the steel rods?
