Correct...you could get a 105mm reversing ring to give a female thread up front to attach filters, but it does seem to make more sense to locate ND's in front of the taking lens.

 

Thinking about it, if a Vari ND or CPL was upfront - the rotation when focusing would cause highlights and reflections to be altered by turning, so Vari ND location on taking lens is the only way it seems. (unless fixed inside a rail mounted mattebox using a filter tray adapter)

 

I keep forgetting this darn lens rotates.

hmmm interesting thanks for the info.  Just sucks that i'll have to move the anamorphic further away from the taking lens glass.

i've got a cinelux and a kowa on the way along with the FM.  I have a 77mm tiffen VND right now that hopefully i'll be able to use. Really like that thing. if not, i guess i'll invest in some 105mm (wow!) filters

nice i'm just not sure 6 stops is going to cut it here in Las Vegas.  Gets extremely bright. 

Are there even any 105mm VND filters?

Read through both links. Looking forward to more!  Also liked your footage. Great job  :)

Thanks looks like that's what I'll be picking up!

Anybody go out and do some more testing over the weekend??

that graph has been proven to be bullshit, time and time again.

I've contacted Atomos and will let you know if they get back to me

Can anyone recommend a good, affordable, set of rails?

Really wish Sony would let you shoot in anamorphic-friendly aspect ratios :(

The future will be crazy, just crazy.

would love to see some helios daytime footage...that looked good though!

I've used twixtor on 60P footage before with decent results. Just know you're in for some masking and post work

Anyone plan on using this with a B&H Kowa?  If so, could you make a video on how to mount it well?

How heavy is this thing? 

Looks like i'm going to have to pull the trigger on this one

Looking promising IMO.   How long does it take to rack focus?

couldn't you buy like 3 or 4 Hawk primes for that? :P

can't wait to hear some impressions!!!

you're all gonna feel dumb when they're BOTH 4K video mwuhahahaha

What's the consensus on a hacked GH2 vs. the GH3?  The GH2 is probably even cheaper than the GH3 and the hacked image is lovely. I believe the crop factor is slightly less on the GH2 y as well. With a speed booster it's close to APS-H FOV (1.33x or so)

That's not a bell & Howell version though, right? Is there a major difference in quality?

Yeah all I shoot with at the moment is a gh2 unfortunately. Is peaking good on magic lantern?

I need one of these too, for both anamorphic shooting and focus assist.  Finding it difficult to really nail focus on these old manual lenses.

The FS7 is looking pretty nice.
