Hi, I have one question: its possible that to work with 2 motors (I-F) you have to connect first IRIS, then FOCUS, and not the opposite ? Thanks a lot.
Here's a response from Nic, one of our tech specialists: The motors can be connected in whichever order you prefer. While it is not necessary to attach the iris motor first in the chain as each motor has its function set by pressing the button on the motor housing, for cabling reasons if you place both motors on the same side of the lens, you typically would have the iris motor attached first since it will be closer to the lens mount.
Hard one to answer without knowing your exact budget requirements, but from an image quality standpoint the Alexa Mini utilizes the same sensor as the Alexa so you'll have the same great look. We'd be happy to discuss further if you want to reach out to us directly with the specifics of your project: techsupport@abelcine.com
Thanks for your comment! This question probably can't be answered completely in a TH-cam comment - feel free to reach out to one of our tech specialists directly so that they can help you with your specific project: techsupport@abelcine.com.
ARRI makes very good prosumer cameras.

would the alexa mini be a reasonable A cam for a low budget feature?

Am I the only one who gets nervous by seeing that not only the camera runs out of battery, but also the WCU-4? :')
