Zeiss and Cooke Side By Side Grab

(If the camera or talent starts moving and missing marks then that's a different problem)

Hi,

Unless using motion control a camera often misses it's marks by an inch or so, actors the same, it's a real issue wider than T4. I have also seen some sensors that are not parallel to the lens.
I am curious to see how people will have a chance with FF35 & still camera lenses.

I've found you need to throw away about 2-3 stops to get the charts 'kind' of working.. Final display was a 1080p display (no sharpening) from 3-3.5m.

It is brutal!

Hi,

Agreed, for the big screen it's more difficult.

I was just wondering if my lenses are properly working if they hit all their marks. My lenses have standard to pl adapters on them, and I was being thrifty and bought the adapters from india and I have had to machine them to get them to hit their marks. I am just wondering if I have everything working properly.

Hi,

Go to a local rental house, they will probably be quite happy to put your lenses on a collimator or projector. If they need adjusting it's probably a fairly quick job assuming the adapters are parallel.
