Back ends for EVF lemo cable...

[Eirik Tyrihjel]

Does anyone know what the item number/name for the back ends (that screws on) on the EVF cable are (The back end of the angled connector on the LCD).
I´ve lost two on one cable - they do unscrew rather easily, and was hoping to save a few bucks compared to getting a brand new cable.

Thanks!

They're not sold seperately. If you ask your RED rep nicely they might be able to help you, but no promises...

I've been taping mine to prevent losing them. Good luck with getting them!

Think they ran out a while ago (although worth asking). People have been putting threadlock compound on them to stop this happening (loctite or similar). Just search loctite on reduser!

All the right angle connectors may suffer the same problem.

I got one cable that had lost it's endcap before ti even left RED it was still sealed in the bag! Red very graciously replaced it, and now I have soft release loctite on all my 90º cables.

If you don't have Loctite handy a dab of nail polish will work in a pinch.

Ah yes, I always have my nail polish handy!! Lol

Don't have a part number for the backing but the connector is:

A dab of nail polish is actually a very handy solution. Not only can you get it in a color matching your camera, but it makes for a discreet tamper seal that can prove quite useful if you're clever enough. I used to use this all the time on my old personal Aaton kit when I rented it out.
