Providing a complete single-axis lens control system packed in a hard case, the Express Plus Kit Wireless Follow Focus with Extreme Motor from CINEGEARS allows you to set up a wireless lens control motor and controller system on your camera system equipped with geared lens and either 15mm or 19mm support rods. The full sized lens controller allows you to adjust the end points to program focus stops, in addition to the two adjustable hard stops on the handwheel. The kit includes two 2" rod clamps with mounting brackets and 15mm and 19mm rod clamps, allowing you to mount the included lens control motor on either size rod. A third clamp is approximately 3" long and mounts to a 19mm rod, or a 15mm rod using the included adapter bushing.
In addition to the replaceable cinema-style drive gear that comes with the lens control motor, the kit includes four different replacement gears with gear MODs of 0.5, 0.6, 0.8, and 1.0, in case you have to drive lenses with non-cine-style gearing or plastic lens gears. The included gear re-locator allows you to use lenses that focus in the opposite direction from standard, without having to alter your focus-pulling technique for those lenses. The kit fits into a waterproof case with foam inserts to protect your equipment during transport and storage.
CINEGEARS Single-Axis Extreme Motor
The CINEGEARS Single-Axis Extreme Motor provides precise repeatable control of your focus, zoom, or iris ring, and it provides twice the torque as the Single-Axis motor and is suitable for use with prime lenses and even stiff zooms. It is compatible with an optional CINEGEARS controller, Single, Multi, Rocker, or Espresso, and ships with an interchangeable cine-style 0.8 MOD drive gear. It requires an optional power cable and rod clamp, which are available separately. You may use this motor to drive the focus, zoom, or iris gear ring on your lens. Once mounted, the lens motor will calibrate itself to your lens in a simple process. You can also manually remap your lens with the optional hand controller, and program multiple stops along the lens, simulating either hard stops, or focus positions. The motor direction is electronically reversible if you need to change the orientation of your motor, or are working with a lens that focuses in the opposite direction to standard cine lenses. The motor incorporates a LEMO jack for power and a LANC jack for camera start / stop.
