Hey, I've got a dumb question. I allways see people mounting dof adapters on an hv20 or hv30 (I know why it's a good choice), but is it possible, to make an adapter for any camcoder? Cause I've seen a guy, who claims that he makes adapters even with 30,5mm threads. I know that cameras with such small lenses won't shoot as well, but they're really cheap, and i would definitely like to begin working with such a set just to learn rather then to get great quality videos.
Well i tried finidng but i couldnt.....is there any way to attach a fish eye lens to my Sony HDR XR 550e? hoping fr ur reply....thanx and an awesome tut.... :)
wow this is very awesome! what do you think the cost is for all adapters and focus screen? (i will google it but for now im lazy, just woke up) Thanks so much for the info in advance! :)
Very Very nice. I have the EnCinema 35 and have problems using it with a Nikon lens. The Canon to Nikon adapters ALL shift left to right when focusing due to the sloppy pin construction. So I purchased a Nikon macro extension tube and am in the process of retrofitting it. Do you think the smaller tube diameter (vs canon) will cause vignetting problems? The Nikon macro tube is ROCK solid. I plan to use an anamorphic lens also extended off the front end. Thanks
Hey there kruno25tf! Thank you so much for this video. I have just finished making my own 35mm DOF Adapter by simply following all your instructions here.
It really works and I'm enjoying it. I appreciate your effort. All the best.
If you're interested in seeing what footage looks like using this adapter search ABDavis and look for a short movie called "Open Doors". We used this adapter, a Nkon 50mm lens, a Canon Vixia HG20, and Final Cut Pro.
I've got everything I need. Just waiting on a piece of copper to come. The etching fluid I can get from Radioshack. Everything else is ready to go. Total cost to build the entire thing? About 50 bucks.
I'd say it's worth it. I already had everything before I saw this video... just needed to figure out how to make my own GG-holder. THANKS!
Hi. I appreciate this video. What is that black paper with the "DOF" text and then on pressed with iron? Is that an ordinary black colored paper? I would appreciate your immediate response.

Hi kruno25tf. I appreciate this video. I have just started assembling my own adapter by following the instructions carefully. By the way, what is that black paper used here?

Really nice toutorial i have a question though, does it make any difference if i change the step ring to 58-55 step down ring instead of the 43-55? i have a canon vixia hf s10 with a 58mm diameter.

With Ebay it came out really easy to make. Althought i didnt make gg holder, i tried to make it once from PCB but i failed, so i found ready GG Holders made by Daniel's . The whole adapter was about 150 dolars, the most expensive parts were focusing screen and gg holder. THank you, now maybe you could make a video about : HOw to make 35mm Flip for LCD xD
I don't understand the copper plate bit, or the need for it? It was brilliant, but I'm dumb.. why so complicated.. it's just a frame for the screen, no?
This seems a bit more complicated than all the other "how to make a 35mm adapter" videos. I'd there really that much of a diffrence from visual effect and depth of feild?
i was just lookin at another diy dof adapter and its got the cpl filter after the close up lens. does it really matter? does it affect the image in some way?
Could I fit one of these to a Panasonic DVX 100b?
