This kit features an 82mm lens adapter, PL lens mount, and is optimized for the V2 rod system.

PL Lens Mount    82mm Filter Thread Adapter    Upright Image    Spinning Ground Glass    Optimized for V2 Rods

Shallow depth of field is a very powerful tool for telling a story and getting specific details across. Many feature films use this tool, yet video cameras with small CCDs cannot produce this optical effect.

This adapter involves the concept of using a 35mm cinema lens (PL mount) to project an image onto a translucent piece of moving glass; the projected image is then focused on by the DV or HDV camera lens and recorded.

Letus35's concentration is on sharp focus, aberration, grain, barrel distortion, audible noise, vibrations and weight, making their adapters an excellent optical accessory.

The image is read upright for using IOC technology and only loses 1/2 stop of light sensitivity.

This kit comes with an 82mm adapter ring for camcorders with 82mm lens filter threads.

The Ultimate Series is a step-up from the Elite series and offers these features:

• Smart Spinning Ground Glass
• X/Y Adjustment
• Variable RPM motor with LED Display
• Full Stop Down Ability on a 35mm Lens
• External Power Option
