MillimeterRedrock Micro Announces Four New New Lens Adapter Accessories
Dec 15, 2006 11:11 AM
Redrock Micro, the leading provider of high quality cinema accessories for digital filmmakers, today announced four new products that extends Redrock's existing family of cinema accessories. These new products bring filmmaking tools to an innovative level of affordability for independent filmmakers, film educators, students, and budget-conscious studios.
These new products complement Redrock's enormously popular M2 cinema lens adapter, which allows 35mm lenses to be adapted to DV and HDV video cameras to create the depth of field, angle of view, and focus techniques previously only possible with 35mm motion picture film cameras. The Redrock M2 won the coveted Mario Award at the 2006 NAB show in Las Vegas, an honor given to the best-in-class products selected from thousands of show vendors.
"Redrock's mission is to enable digital filmmakers with the highest-quality cinema accessories at truly affordable prices," said James Hurd, chief revolutionary at Redrock Micro. "These new accessories round out our vision for outfitting DV and HDV cameras to deliver stunning cinematic footage at revolutionary prices."
MicroFollowFocus is the first follow focus optimized for 35mm still lenses, and provides repeatable focusing. A new updated design provides for greatly increased wheel movement.
MicroWhips are standards-based whips that extend the follow focus's wheel for ease of use by a first AC or camera operator, and come in 3in., 12in., and 18in. lengths.
MicroAccessoryPod enables centralized accessory management for mounting and powering on-camera monitors, wireless microphone receivers, and standard V-mount batteries.
MicroLensSupport provides large lens support when using an M2 adapter. This is critical for applications requiring long lenses, such as wildlife and sports projects.
Coinciding with the product announcement, Redrock also announces the "Bundle up for the Holidays" promotion offering Redrock product bundles from 10-25 percent off standard prices through end of 2006. All Redrock products can be purchased directly from Redrock via their website at www.redrockmicro.com.
