the smallest 35mm depth of field adapter available
FAQs - PLEASE READ BEFORE PURCHASING
Q) What is this adapter and what does it do?
A) It allows you to attach a 35mm photographic lens to your HD or DV Camera to get that true FILM LOOK with an extremely shallow Depth of Field or
Narrow Field of Focus. This along with 24 frames per second shooting and you will have an amazing picture seen mainly by motion picture film
cameras. The image gets projected from a 35mm EOS lens (not included) onto a piece of ground glass in our adapter that is attached to the front of
your video camera. Your video camera will Macro focus onto the projected image of the glass.
Q) Is the image upside down?
A) Yes, all lenses project upside down, and since you are putting another lens in front of the video lens, the footage will be upside down. Other adapters
that flip the image right side up start at $1200 USD and are heavy, somewhat complex in setup and mounting. Learning to shoot upside down is part
of the learning curve, but you will get used to it. The end results are well worth it and there are some things you can do about it. When shooting hand
held, you can hold the camera upside down. Or shoot with an external LCD screen and flip that upside down. SEE THE LCD FLIP MODIFICATION PAGE
FOR THE CANON HF10 and HF100 HERE!
Q) Does this adapter vibrate, spin or take batteries?
A) No, It's what is known as a Static Adapter. Meaning the glass does not vibrate or spin therefore in certain lighting conditions or with various lenses the
very fine grain on the ground glass can appear when viewing on High Definition monitors. We feel these adapters can be modified later to add
vibrating elements. Vibrating adapters from other companies start at around $700 USD. They are a bit more complex, heavier and still film upside
down (and sometimes too noisey).
Q) What kind of lenses does this adapter take?
A) This adapter has a Canon EF also known as an EOS Mount. You will need your own 35mm EOS mount still lens. We recommend any EOS or Nikon lens
with an f stop of f1.4 to f2.8. A Canon EF or Nikon 50mm f1.8 is perfect and can be bought new for around $99 at camera stores and other places
online. Anything slower then f2.8 will have dark edges and corners of your image. Some people purposely shoot for this and seem to like this effect.
Since we make it with the larger EOS mount,you will be able to use a converter that will allow you to use other types of lenses. These are relatively cheap
as well and the Nikon to EOS Converters can be bought from us for $20 included in the checkout section below.
Q) Anything else to know?
A) Yes, When shooting with these adapters and still lenses the rules and craft of traditional filmmaking apply. You will not be able to use your zoom
function on the video camera as you need to zoom and focus in on the ground glass where your image is projected and lock that into place. Your
focus is now adjusted by the 35mm still lens and if you buy a lens with zoom functions you will use that instead. Also, like traditional film cameras, you
will need to make sure that the ground glass does not have any dust particles to show up on the image. Your glass will get dusty eventually and you
will need to use a dust blower to clear that.
DO NOT EVER TOUCH THE GROUND GLASS OR BLOW ON IT WITH YOUR BREATH OR ANY SORT OF MOISTURE!! ONLY USE A DUST
BLOWER OR VERY FINE BRUSH, SILK, MICRO FIBER CLEANING CLOTH WITH NO PRESSURE SO THAT IT WILL NOT SCRATCH OR
SMUDGE THE GLASS.
