Oh... just watched another vid. Looks like it's best for times when you can pre-plan your camera location and subject location(s), so that you can mark where the focus needs to be at certain times, so that you're not having to hunt for the focus through the viewfinder "on the fly". Probably other benefits also...
Okay, this is probably a stupid question, but what is the advantage of using something like the SYSTEM ZERO instead of just focusing using the focus ring on the lens itself? I've only done a little bit of video, so maybe I don't know what I'm missing (with a "follow-focus system").
@streetballwarriors - wow - what a stupid comment. ORIGINAL POSTER - nice video, the follow focus is interesting, can you show a demo of its operation? Thanks
is it still the old icd run and gun standard follow focus set wich u use at the on t your cam or the new system zero set + an extra "SYSTEM ZERO Follow-Focus Spacer" wich we can see later at the video?
ya know, if it wasnt so goddamn ridiculously expensive.... alot more people would buy that hands down. now i cant even get one, id never waste 400 bucks on that id rather use some zipties!!!
This looks like wonderful lite follow focus, but I see on the shop site that you have to choose a camera, and there isn't t2i option. Will there be any problem fitting it to 550d/t2is?
@martymellway there was. but since it was heavily overpriced and performence was too weak they canceled the production. its just not worth the effort.
take that fucking hat off.

So in what way does this improve the way you focus?. It doesn't rest on shoulders for better stabilization etc it's just another ring but on the side
