Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. this might sound crazy but could you theoretically use this for zoom?

A: Yes this geared focus wheel could be used to manually dial in a zoom on an appropriately geared lens, or on some photography lens with geared adapters, such as the Wide Open Camera Universal Lens Gear: WILU; https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/839296-REG/Lens_Gear_605859_LENSGEAR_UNIVERSAL_LENS.html

Q: 2. Is the manual focus adapter compatible with 58mm front-mount filters on the V-AF lens? i.e. can they be used at the same time?

A: Please note Samyang Manual Focus Adapter for Cine V-AF Lenses will only work with Samyang Cine AF lenses. The adapter attaches to the bayonet mount of the Samyang Cine AF lens. We do not think that you can work with Round filters using this adapter and Samyang recommends using a 95mm Matte box when filters are required.
