BMMCC Angle HDMI Clamp Lock Kit Module

neirotransformer — Thu, 09 Feb 2017 22:11:11 +0000

Let me introduce Angle HDMI Clamp Lock Kit Module developed by RADIOPROEKTOR for Blackmagic Micro Cinema Camera SmallRig 1773 Cage with Ugreen angle HDMI adapter.

BMMCC HDMI port is rather shaky, especially when used with angle HDMI adapters, so i decide to develop a clamp to solve this problem. After few DIY prototypes i was able to produce small batch of factory machined angle HDMI clamps.

The kit includes:

Front and rear parts of angle HDMI clamp (factory machined from aluminum alloy, anodized in black color).
2pcs 1/4" button head screws (Stainless Steel or Black Oxide Steel or both for your choice)
2pcs M4 Stainless Steel grub screws.
2mm allen wrench hex key.

For your choice i can Include Ugreen angle HDMI adapter to the package for additional cost, or you can get it by yourself from Ugreen ebay or AliExpress stores: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ugreen-HDMI-Male-to-HDMI-Female-Cable-Adapter-Converter-Extender-for-1080P-HDTV-/152084086682 https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Ugreen-HDMI-male-to-HDMI-female-cable-adapter-converter-extender-90-degree-angle-270-degree-angle/32403914176.html

!!! Please note that this clamp designed to work with SmallRig Cage and Ugreen angle HDMI adapter only !!!

Package cost total:

Angle HDMI Clamp Kit = $25
Ugreen angle HDMI adapter (optional) = $5
Worldwide shipping by registered air mail with tracking number = $5
Payoneer funds transfer fees = 3%

Currently I can accept payments only with Payoneer Billing Service because PayPal don't works in my country for receiving funds. Here are few links explains how the Payoneer Request a Payment service works: https://www.payoneer.com/en/billing-service/ http://blog.payoneer.com/how-to-request-a-payment-with-payoneer/ https://payoneer.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/12280

Anamorphic Projector lens on GH4

Irfan — Thu, 03 Nov 2016 10:40:11 +0000

I managed to get old projector anamorphic lens produced in Yugoslavia. Not sure about year of production but I can tell it is heavy. Specs I can read on lens: ANAMORFOT 50X2. I manage to combine it with 50mm 1.7 Practica lens. Looks nice. Here is handheld test footage with GH4. I squeeze it in post in After effects. Are there native anamorphic feature to do this on camera? Since I dont have any wider fixed lens Im not sure how wide I can go with it? Also what kind of adapter/clamp you recommend?

Grip head / gobo head /clamp - cheap alternative?

Psyco — Fri, 31 Oct 2014 15:29:47 +0000

Hi,

I need some grip heads like the Manfrotte Avenger D200 ( http://www.ebay.de/itm/Manfrotto-Avenger-D200-2-1-2-034-Grip-Head-Alu-Gobohead-Drehkopf-Griphead-Head-Gobo-/271533728709 ) to mount my flags/cutters to my c-stands, but this thing costs about 30 EUR.

Does anybody know about some other grip heads that cost less (here in Europe/Germany) or a lot less (to import from Asia/US)?

I don't need stepless angle adjustments, so a simpler construction would also do. Any ideas?

FS: Tokina Achromatic +0.4 closeup with redstan front filter clamp

cam_boy — Wed, 30 Oct 2013 14:26:23 +0000

I am selling my Tokina Achromat +0.4 diopter along with a redstan 72mm front filter clamp. I have had these for a year now and they have endured little to no use. The glass is flawless and has been protected by a UV filter ever since I attached it to my anamorphic. I also have the original packaging along with a beautiful protective case.

The tokina can be seen attached to my century anamorphic (the century anamorphic is no longer for sale)

$380/obo plus shipping to anywhere in the world.

If you have a question or are willing to throw me an offer, please PM me.

Thank you

Mounting your accessories. Arms. Clamps.

Arms are very handy to have in your gear box.
Especially considering that almost all of them are now produced in China and become pretty cheap.

First version:

http://shop.ebay.com/jinfinance/m.html?_nkw=arm&_sacat=0&_odkw=&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3911.c0.m270.l1313

About $40 shipped.
Seller also have 5 pack that I recommend :-)

You can use better mounting with this arm (generally any that accepts 15mm rods), like relatively cheap ($30) angle clamp
