I just got one the other week, still getting use to it but getting there took a bit of time to get it set up the first time wish I had found your video sooner 🤣
Thanks for the info. Installing mine now on smallRig cage. Seems you have to remove the HDMI clamp. So it is either the clamp or the follow focus? Can't use both at same time?
Cheers mate! Ahh I think there are million ways how to install it, but if you only have the cage and the rod that came with follow focus, I guess you won't be able to also install hdmi clamp. If you have 15mm double rods (that goes under your camera cage) then you could install both!
Thanks! I think I figured out a way with a nano rail clamp with a rod holder...it is small, fits on left side under the HTML port, and can hold the one rod for the follow focus. I just heard about it about an hour ago, learn something new every day. Thanks again.@@TomsJurjaks
One question...If one was filming the bride and groom walking towards you - would it be difficult to do ? following all the way from the alter back to the entrance...You only get one chance to get it right...
It would be difficult for me as I am not used to manual focus, but there are professionals that all they do is focus pulling and they are amazing at their job. I would personally rely on AF and a set tracking point to the bride and groom.
So I got the Tilta seamless gear ring in the 0.8 and the follow focus feels like it is binding when turning. I even tried changing the gear on the follow focus to see it that would help. Would you know what would cause this? Thanks and great review!
Hey Ryan, hmm I've never imagined that it could bind when turned, thats really odd. I don't think Im much of a help to you. Perhaps reach out to Tilta? That shouldn't be happening since the mechanism is rather simple.
Hey Chloe, yes you can! In fact you can put it in 4 different ways - you can have the rod on either side as well as on bottom or top part of camera. I chose to attach the follow focus on left side and have the rod on bottom. So it's pretty nice that its universal.
Yeah Jaime, it does, because you put a rubber ring on your lens. And this ring has teeth. You don't need to have teeth on the focus ring. Just make sure you make the rubber ring tight and you will be good to go 💪
I unfortunately don't have, but I recommend buying from the official SmallRig store on Amazon: amzn.to/2YhFgLR Also you can check the SmallRig website, sometimes they have some discount codes etc.
I got mine today, thanks for helping me out with the set up.
Great to hear that and you are very welcome 🙌

Haha sometimes these things get in the way but once you get used to them, they are great ;)
This tipped me in the direction of the Smallrig.
Another great recommendation from mister Toms and another gadget for my list. Typically fantastic and fun video, well done
Haha cheers mate! Im just glad you watched the video 🔥
Can you change direction of the gear if you prefer the opposite way of turning the knob?
I dont think so. You would probably need another gear
Great video! you got a new subscriber!
Oh cheers Jorge! Really glad to have you as a subscriber 🙌
It looks very nice ! Thanks! From HongKong
Cheers Larry! Thanks for your comment 🙌
Just bought one. Excellent bit of kit.
Awesome! Enjoy Apophenia 💪

Hi thanks for the vid. Is this also another point of contact? Can you keep hold of it like a side handle.
In theory yes, but I don't think its comfy. What I do is - I rest the follow focus in my hand for greater stability.

Yo, nice b-roll and the camera looks mad sick with the wrap and rig on it :D
Iz lit yo, need also to put on top handle. And maybe get that Atomos Ninja? 🤔
@@TomsJurjaks bruv u wildin haha :D
Jokin jokin haha @@kristapsvaivods Atomos aint no poor mans setup 😂
Hi, it looks dope bro! What part number is it, the 3011 or the 3010? More power to you! 🔥
Hey buddy and thanks a lot! Its the 3010. There is also a link in the description for this specific piece 🙌
Daft question, sorry. If it want to, can I put the follow focus on the right hand side of the lens instead of the left?
Thank you
Hey Chloe, yes you can! In fact you can put it in 4 different ways - you can have the rod on either side as well as on bottom or top part of camera. I chose to attach the follow focus on left side and have the rod on bottom. So it's pretty nice that its universal.
Toms Jurjaks Thank you Toms, appreciate your clarification 🙂
Awesome fantastic
Thanks Laxman!
Wooww , B-roll 👏👏
Could you mount this to the right hand side of a cage?
Yes you can
@@TomsJurjaks and I’m guessing then the focus would be reversed? Is there a way to change the wheel direction when focusing?
i see you wrap your camera... looks nice
Yeah, I got it from camskns. Not only it makes the looks, it also protects from scratches 👌
Where did you get the skin for your camera?
From camskns.com 🔥
hi , where to buy sticker camo on your camera body?
Hey buddy, I got them from Camskns.com
✌
can i use it on cine lenses ?
It actually is preferred to be used on cine lenses. Not too much worth to use on Sony AF lenses as they do the job very well.
Nice machine ❤️
I love it, thanks 🙌
works with batis lenses? they are plain surface, doesn't have teeth
Yeah Jaime, it does, because you put a rubber ring on your lens. And this ring has teeth. You don't need to have teeth on the focus ring. Just make sure you make the rubber ring tight and you will be good to go 💪
@@TomsJurjaks do you have some coupon for Smallrig mini follow focus on Amazon?
I unfortunately don't have, but I recommend buying from the official SmallRig store on Amazon: amzn.to/2YhFgLR
Also you can check the SmallRig website, sometimes they have some discount codes etc.
Nice ✨😈 bro
Cheers brother 🙌🔥
First, Can i get heart?
