Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Can I shoot on F/1.8 or does it increase by 1 stop like in other adapters?

A: The adapter does not affect the maximum aperture of the lens.

Q: 2. Can I trace it if I lost it?

A: If you register the item with the manufacturers by the serial number, they would have it on record. There Would be no way to track it to a location, but if there is an issue it would be registered to the account you have set it up with.

Q: 3. If I have 12G SDI cables connected to this, but send a 6G signal (4K 30p), would there be any problems? I assume everything would work just fine, no?

A: 100%. A end-user would just be future proofing their feed. Great workflow practice.

Q: 4. This equipement will work as presentation switcher??

A: No this works best to route video or to distribute multiple inputs to multiple outputs. Primarily because each output has independent control and no group switching is available the recommendation is to purchase additional hardware to control switching.

Q: 5. Can the gear be free to operate like conventional video head?

A: Yes, the Benro Polaris Astro Edition 3-Axis Smart Tripod Head can be operated manually like a standard tripod head, but it is not a fluid head, so it likely would not be great for manually shooting video.

Q: 6. I want to pre-order this, but can I at least see a picture of the product first?

A: There are three photos of the product in the link.

Q: 7. Will this work with canon 90mm tilt shift lens?

A: Yes, the Canon 90mm tilt shift lens will fit on the Metabones Canon EF/EF-S Lens to Sony E Mount T Smart Adapter in totally manual mode.The Canon 90mm is a manual focus lens, and it features manual F stops as well.

Q: 8. has anyone tried the metabones gen v adapter with sony a7r mark iv and canon ef 600mm mark iii?

A: See answer 5648304. Very well written and is correct in their findings.

Q: 9. I'm working a new setup utilizing a Newtek Tricaster and 3play. 2 of our camera runs to control room are 2-300ft and look great when going direct to either the Tricaster of 3play but when I split them using a passive SDI T splitter I get nothing. Will I be able to input those cameras into the Videohub and split them to the Tricaster and 3play without signal degradation?

A: TheVideohub will be an overkill for you. First, there is no degradation when working in the digital domain. You either have a perfect signal or nothing. Second, you can't use a passive switcher. A SDI cable needs to be terminated. By splitting your signal, you endup with a double termination and this is the reason why it is not working. The solution would be to loop your signal from 3Play to Tricaster or vice versa, but unfortunately neither the 3play nor the Tricaster have a loop input. Your unly way out is to purshase a SDI distribution amplifier to distribute your signal to both devices

Q: 10. Can I input a 720 signal and then send it out as 1080?

A: No, Its merely a router and not an up converter. However, you can have two inputs of different resolutions. But it wont convert the signal. It will pass them as they are.
