  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

A little Nikon Love....

I know it's hard for you Nikon lens guys out there to watch all the Canon guys having all the fun.. so I thought I would share a little clip from the final prototype that just came in.. it's pretty incredible. The Nikon mount as most of you know has been a bit tricky as Nikon requires actual motors in the mount where Canon has the motors in the lenses.

Anyways... here you go.. first look at the DSMC Nikon Mount in action.. Here is the Iris control "dampened" mode that takes out the click click click shifts you sometimes see in iris pulls. Since we make the motors.. we can make it pretty damn smooth.

Nice one! Look forward to order the Nikon mount.

BTW, it will go nicely with my my Nikon Nikonos mount, which has a nice feature of being water resistant: :ihih:

More power more capabilities more options more bad ass
 
I just cryed a little as I sold all my nikon glass for L lenses...no clicking in the Iris is the killer for me...
 
If you took away everything that is great about the DSMC program.. and only left the fact that you can change between Canon, Nikon, PL, PV, RM and Leica-M mounts in less than a minute and use all the random optical jewels from various companies from the past, present and future.. it would still be quite revolutionary. A Glass lover's dream come true. And the majority of those mounts being electronic? Icing on the cake.
