Monstro & Revolva (any issues?)

[Andrew Reese]

What coverage does Revolva provide for Monstro? I mainly shoot on EF Leica-R Duclos Mods and PL Anamorphic's (i.e. Atlas, Kowa, Xelmus, Cooke, etc.). Are there issues with using Revolva on Monstro? I think I saw that is really is only designed for S35?

I was just looking into this for Raptor (rf/ef or rf/pl) and there does appear to be some vignetting at 8k. I don't think the DSMC2 version would be much different. I think the filter size was designed for s35.

Search on youtube for "V-raptor revolva"

I’ve been using this setup for years without problems. But I must confess I never got wider than 18mm in FF.

I would say that it’s a really good choice for docu shoot or fast paced indie movie. You probably get more flairs (I never tested it VS no filters) or a bit lower sharpness but it would be only noticeable in an 8k master….

love my Kippertie ND mount on the Monstro.

Good to know. I've got one on Komodo and can't imagine life without it.

Made a quick test on the Raptor. 12mm Laowa lens with the Revolva RF EF with Clear filter compared to the Canon RF EF Adapter, the resulting picture's difference is literally zero across the whole image. Both at T2.9 and T22. In other words, no different vignetting with the Revolva as with the unfiltered adapter.
