19mm rod lens support?

[Shawn Nelson]

I just bought an Angenieu 25-250mm lens and need to buy a lens support to attach to the Red 19mm rods. Anyone know of a place? There are some cheapo 15mm-rod based lens supports on eBay, I may break down and get one of those and adapt it onto Red.

Talk to Charlie Pickle here in Seattle. He makes a great universal lens support for 15mm studio. www.seriousgear.com

If he isn't doing them now, talk to Oppenhiemer, they make a great universal lens support. http://www.oppenheimercamera.com/


both have subtle side to side adjustment and some vertical travel as well.

Hi Shawn

VFGadgets have an interesting quick mount lens support bracket

Martin, that's a great find.

I was, however, under the impression that the Red universal mount could be used as a lens support.

 

[Martin Drew]

Yup. I can't see why not, cheaper too. I do like the design of the VFGadgets one though.

You probably need an Arri LS-9, which is their universal 19mm support.

Definitely in a different price league though Mitch
