hi,
Have you tried the indie dolly systems??

the relay is not an adaptor, it is a lens that mounts straight onto the body of the ex3 to replace the stock lens, the Ultimate then mounts onto that.

you mean lens mount? i use nikon lenses.

i think the zacuto rails are the best, expensive but worth it.

I’m confused ?
is the ultimate relay the newest dof adaptor for ex3..or is that the same as the ultimate 35 letus?

which mount for the ultimate do you recommend??
and so you suggest the rod system fromzacuto, but will fit the
ex3 w letus. correct??

Philip,

I am shooting with an EX3 with the Letus Ultimate on their V2 Rod system. When I do handheld work this is pretty heavy. I did purchase the Redrock ShoulderMount but I wanted a little more weight in the back to counterbalance everything. Do you happen to know if the Zacuto lunchbox can be used with my V2 Letus rods? If not, is there something else you recommend as a back weight? Thanks a lot!

i just found a cheap one on ebay, although a couple I have bought were terrible. None of the ones I have are THAT great…all a bit loose

Hey Philip – excellent site. Been browsing for hours. One thing I can’t find – what Nikon to Canon mount adaptor do you use to mount your nikon lenses on your 5d. It’s become one of those all day searches – so any help would be majorly appreciated! I find stuff from $15.99 to $150…

thanks!

i haven’t personally but as the image projected onto the 1/3″ sensor is huge from the alpha lenses expect a magnification factor of around 7x Great for wildlife though!

Hi, Philip.

I work for at production company that has got the Sony Z7 cam’ and i just recently discovered the Sony Alpha Lens Adapter (http://www.globalmediapro.com/dp/A1TEB5/Sony-LA-100W-Alpha-Lens-Adapter/)

Have you tried this adapter with still lenses
or do you have any idea of how well it produces images? Is it worth it?

Thank you -
Tim

Hi,
I’m trying to find some decent zooms for my Ex1-Letus combo. I was wondering which ones you’ve found to be best?
