Letus35 Elite with back focus adjustment #LT35ELITE

View More Images

The Letus35 Corporation has made a new DOF adapter: The Letus Elite. With the added back focus adjustment, you can quickly and accurately adjust the distance between the rear element of the prime lens and the ground glass (film plane). This results in accurate focus marks on the lens and sharp focus with the lens set to infinity. This is a great improvement over the Letus35 Extreme design and will allow users to fix back focus issues in the field quickly and accurately.

The Letus35 Elite also incorporates a film plane line and peg on the outside of the adapter. This makes it possible to use a tape measure as an accurate tool for finding focus and also to calibrate the distance markings on the lens correctly.

The Letus35 Elite offers the following features:
• Built-in precisions back focus adjustment with lock
• Highest optical grade achromatic lens
• Custom condenser to get the best possible picture quality

DOF Docu Baseplate Kit

Our DOF Docu kit is designed for use on a tripod, dolly or Steadicam with a DOF (depth of field) 35mm lens adapter such as the Letus35, Brevis, MovieTube, P+S Tecnik, and/or RedRock Micro. The DOF adapter allows you to use Nikon, Canon or Zeiss still lenses and achieve the same shallow DOF as 35mm motion picture film.

The combination of our height adjustable Universal Baseplate and Z-Riser allows you to mount any matte box and follow focus. Our Locking lens support provides the most stable mount for a DOF adapter and eliminates any rotation or shifting when pulling focus or moving the camera rig.

Zacuto’s baseplate kits are universal and quick-releasable; they can be used with any 15mm lightweight accessories, follow focuses & matte boxes. The kits are designed to be used with current and future models of cameras & camcorders such as the: Panasonic HVX200a, DVX100a/b, Canon XL-H1, XL2, GL2, XH-A1 Sony XDCAM EX1, EX3, SO-HVR-Z1U, VX2000, PD-150, PD-170, JVC GY-HD100U, HD200U, HD250U, JVC GY-HM100U, Silicon Imaging SI2K, RED ONE, and many more.

DOF Cine Baseplate Kit

Our DOF Cine kit is ideal for the cinematographer shooting with a DOF (depth of field) 35mm lens adapter such as a Letus35, Brevis, MovieTube, P+S Tecnik, and/or RedRock Micro, on a tripod, dolly or Steadicam. The DOF adapter allows you to use Nikon, Canon or Zeiss still lenses and achieve the same shallow DOF as a 35mm motion picture film.

Zacuto was the first to design a camera package using rods behind the camera for mounting and counterbalance. The mount behind the camcorder holds batteries to power the monitor and accessories and provide a counterbalance to offset the weight of the camera, DOF adapter and accessories. The counterbalance weight can quickly slide along the rods to achieve a perfectly balanced camera rig. The Zamerican arm uses Zacuto Z-Release technology to quickly release the monitor or hard drive to make setup and location moves quick and easy. Attach your wireless microphone receiver to the plate in back and you are ready to shoot.

Zacuto’s baseplate kits are universal and quick-releasable; they can be used with any 15mm lightweight accessories, follow focuses & matte boxes. The kits are designed to be used with current and future models of cameras & camcorders such as the: Panasonic HVX200a, DVX100a/b, Canon XL-H1, XL2, GL2, XH-A1 Sony XDCAM EX1, EX3, SO-HVR-Z1U, VX2000, PD-150, PD-170, JVC GY-HD100U, JVC GY-HM100U, HD200U, HD250U, Silicon Imaging SI2K, RED ONE, and many more.

DOF Indie Baseplate Kit

Our DOF Indie kit is ideal for the cinematographer shooting with a DOF (depth of field) 35mm lens adapter such as a Letus35, Brevis, MovieTube, P+S Tecnik, and/or RedRock Micro, on a tripod, dolly or Steadicam. The DOF adapter allows you to use Nikon, Canon or Zeiss still lenses and achieve the same shallow DOF as a 35mm motion picture film.

Our DOF Indie Kit takes our DOF Cine Kit a step further by allowing the entire rig to be used shoulder-mounted. The Indie Kit includes all of the mounting equipment needed for the independent filmmaker – you can mount a matte box, follow focus, wireless microphone receiver and external monitor. The mount behind the shoulder pad will hold batteries to power the monitor and provide a counter balance weight to offset the camera and accessories in front. The rig can be easily balanced with a few quick adjustments and gives smaller 1/3” or ½” cameras the stability of a larger shoulder mounted camera. Zacuto’s baseplate kits are universal and quick-releasable; they can be used with any 15mm lightweight accessories, follow focuses & matte boxes. The kits are designed to be used with current and future models of cameras & camcorders such as the: Panasonic HVX200a, DVX100a/b, Canon XL-H1, XL2, GL2, XH-A1 Sony XDCAM EX1, EX3, SO-HVR-Z1U, VX2000, PD-150, PD-170, JVC GY-HD100U, HD200U, HD250U, Silicon Imaging SI2K, RED ONE, and many more.
