  • 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 :)

New PL Mount Finished

genious and crazy to be said are just neighborhood. :shiftyph34r:

I don't see anything sticking out. Must be a girl
 
Awesome news guys. Can't wait to get this thing in my hands. If Jarred can't break it, I don't think I'll be able to. He looks a hell of a lot stronger than I am.

Damn... That's going to hurt coming out.
 
Soooooo. Does that mean that the engineering delay is over? What about the new board?
 
Did you fix at the same time the 45 degree missing edge?

Indeed there was an issue with the Red not being compatible with many PL mount adapters, for more info see this thread:
http://www.reduser.net/forum/showthread.php?t=6101

To summarize it had to do with the fact that the throad of regular PL cameras is shaved off 45 degrees where the throad of the Red PL mount is straight. The Red team said they were going to address this point so I'm crossing my fingers for this new mount being the salvation.

The design is finalized. It is rock solid and cool as hell... it will make people embarrassed for ever using shims in lens mounts.

As long as I have been watching these boards that has to be the funniest
post I have seen from you Mr. Jannard.

Hang your heads in shame people...and weep for the lowly shim
 
Remind me of a great joke I heard recently (WARNING - MEGA OT!):

Sort-of is one of those phrases that generally doesn't mean anything, but sometimes it means everything- like when it follows the phrase "It's a boy..."!

The origin...
 
shipping shedule

shipping shedule

So, now that the lens mount is OK. Is there any news about the shipping schedule?
I haven't read anything about the daughter board.
 
I just hope the 'adjustable' PL mount hasn't introduced the whole range of backfocus nightmares we deal with on 3-chip video cameras. I would rather have a lens mount that is properly collimated by the rental house and stays that way for the entire shoot. Adjustments are bad.

Completely agree.
