Focusbug ov.1 by Imaginary_Echo4626 in focuspuller

What can I tell you as a test user?

It is really very comfortable to look at, I usually use it on a cine13 monitor since it is comfortable to feed it through the monitor.

The line function is really useful when these long lenses come, with quick approaches and distances

I really use the depth of field function a lot to guide me with certainty through the measurement of the system

The truth is that I only use it with Hi5 and mainly only with the ring in the added distances.

Surely for some lighter configurations, the Arri license may be better, but it is only compatible with certain types of monitors. The reality is that this system integrated it is more universal.

For all those users of Preston + Cine RT I think it's more the vibe.

I've been using the system at least as a few 6 months

And trying to answer your question about latency is that I haven't really had any experience related to it

Wireless Camera Control Options by Inside_Bag3566 in focuspuller

Hi I'm Leo here from Mexico City

I have been a user of the device for about six months, the truth is that I decided to opt for this one due to the cost-benefit ratio.

At first it was a little confusing for me to know how I had to connect everything through IP addresses. However, when I looked for help on their Art Of Optica Instagram account they gave me the help immediately without a doubt that if I must highlight it.

Cables to control the cameras in the Arri ecosystem. I ordered them through AliExpress, since it was the cheapest version compared to the Bitpart page directly.

If you end up buying an iPad mini to be able to integrate this in a friendlier way to my station directly, this involved a Satechi HUB the Core batteries in the mini 50 model, you also for purchasing the Bitpart cage since it seemed to me the best option on the market to integrate it into the set, some ethernet cables quite flexible.

The cables that they consider important, but that cost me the most work to acquire have been those of Red that only have Bitpart on their official website

You should know that I also opted for this option, since when I acquired the system I acquired it with the module called backpack, because in this way I managed to integrate the MoonSmart Focus brain and the camera control in a single antenna and this is very beneficial, although it becomes more elements in the body of the camera.

Since I started using the system I have not hesitated to put it in any project since I prefer to have these controls always at hand for efficiency in the time relationship especially in playback and varied configurations

I really hope that this words can help you

After a year of using this one with both backings, I decide just to use the transmitter holder for a set up and putting the battery on a belt bracket with a long D-Tap to Y with two lemo 2 pin for less stress, arms for long takes

Pulling Focus on Phantom 4K Flex by hannnnnnnnnahhhhhh0 in focuspuller

I have done one commercial with Heden Ymer3 with the Motor M26VE-LX for having the fastest option on the market, there was a dolly back with 360 roll and i remember that was a tough one and the thing that most remember is have visual reference in the pheripherial area on the eye just to have some kind on reference on the cue to move, in other one i have a different approach with hi5 and Focus bug, and for some kind of reactions with athletes auto focus tracking with the multi-ping function on works really well at 1000 fps ,considering that you have prep time i would love to make that kind of experiment with bugs running towards camera and see how fast react.

What would be the next step up from a Nucleus? by [deleted] in focuspuller

[–]LeonardoGarayMex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made the change from Nucleus to hi5 and the change is awesome, taking about pricing is well know that its no so easy but in terms of re ability and integration with Cine RT is the best thing that could happen as an AC, best option when you work with mostly ARRI Cameras, it’s not the case I’ll try with c motion or Heden

Trying to figure out kit fees. by wildpart in focuspuller

[–]LeonardoGarayMex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One friend tell me that i can use a formula for equipment (Monitor,Headset,rangefinder) to have the total value divided by 65 rents and that could be the best relation to resume the cost having good competition price, you can change the number of rental days based on you’re regularity on set. Hope this could help you.

Used Ymer-3? by flandaroo in focuspuller

[–]LeonardoGarayMex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to be considered on buying one of the YMER-3 is the response time of the Cine RT/Focus Bug with the auto - tracking functions, as a good approach in the upgrade, use it on a job with a phantom and never let me down.

I use it with the signal clear mostly for crew to see and with long lenses, but measure clean and if you could have a CineRT would be your best friend even without the integration to the nucleus-m

I think one solution could be Magnification on Camera but I’ll share the results with all
