Arri MB-17B and Arri lightweight follow focus on RED?

[Ronnie Wenngren]

Hi!
I am a becoming RED user and am selling my Super 16 equipment for buying a RED camera.

I have an Arri MB-17B matte box and I wonder if there are any chance it would fit with the 18-50 RED zoom?

I also have a Chrosziel 16:9 matte box - CWAH-FV, CF-MB/ST - as an alternative - if this works on the 18 - 50 zoom.

I am going to buy the Lightweight Support Bracket for the Red One Camera by Douglas Underdahl - which you mount directly on the camera - to keep the weight down.

I am hoping to use the Arri lightweight follow focus on this 15mm lightweight rods - if the lens diameter allows this.

Appreciate an answer from someone who knows.

You may check the specs of lenses in Red.com... front diamenter of the 18-50 is 4.5 inches, about 114mm. The Arri will work, the Chrosziel I´m not sure.
