Best follow focus for both cine and still lenses under $2000

Redrock microRemote is certainly the worst wireless follow focus system I've ever used. Save your money, and buy something that works properly.

I think the original release had issues, since then there have been a lot of updates which have improved performance.

It's a good piece of kit. Works very well and is solidly built. Motor is a bit loud, but then again, so is the fan on the back of a RED and that hasn't stopped so may people from doing pro work with it.

Really you should be asking your first AC what they would choose as they are the ones who have to use it. If you are pulling your own focus, save some money and grab the barrel. If it's for an AC to pull focus, get their opinion.

BINGO! Those of us who AC have strong opinions for a reason, we're there to help you get the shot. *cough* preston *cough.

I have he Proaim/Camtree thing and it is excellent. I am guessing they throw other people's products into a scanner and then punch that data into a CNC machine. Whatever they do it works out pretty well. I have a full rig that included carbon fibre Matte Box, Follow Focus, A-box, rails, shoulder gear, V mount batter plate, handles, weights, and top handle. Paid about $900 for the whole thing. Came faster from India, than I have gotten things from NYC and I am in Boston. Just my 2 cents.

I use a Shoot 35 follow focus. Works fine for me. Have been using it since last year.

The wireless follow focus market is going to change soon with the entry of newer and cheaper models. Lets wait for this year's NAB.

1 vote for Shoot35. Got it 2 weeks ago and i am impressed. Very good quality for money.

What price did you pay, was it £250 back then too?
