Beautiful crafted piece from Mike Rea

@JohnBarlow , Any tests to show the lens breathing while rack focusing? can the lens be used with a follow focus ?

yiannis_zach

@sammy , here's some footage you can have an idea & yes I can confirm it can be used with follow focus, as it comes already with a follow focus gear. Video is handheld so permit some shaky scenes :)

sammy

@Yiannis_zach is this a newer version? thanks for the video, it looks like the breathing is more controlled in your video compared to earlier versions I seen. Mind me asking whats the CoreDNA ? I don't see that on John's page, maybe me in not looking right .

sammy

I see it now, wow, never seen that before, that like a very small version of the Rectilux ? less breathing? any advantages to this or disadvantages compared to getting a regular Rectilux ?

yiannis_zach

@sammy Yes is a newer model, in lower price, smaller then the 3FFW, ideal for run & gun, but same outstanding quality.

sammy

great. but not sure how its cheaper, I see them both listed at 595UKP?

@JohnBarlow, Will the Rectilux CoreDNA attached on a Kowa for Bell & Howell 2x produced the same result as the 3FF-W with same kowa? Is the main difference between the CoreDNA and the 3FF-W many that the CoreDNA have the focusing ring?

JohnBarlow

@sammy

3FF-W requires the purchase of precision coupling rings at additional cost, CoreDNA has in-built clamp

JohnBarlow

@HillTop1

Both have the same high performance optics, 3FF-W focuses closer to 0.6m,

other differences are best viewed in the specifications below:

When a very talented young cinematographer chooses ‪#‎RectiluxCoreDNA‬ to create his art, it makes me feel both priviledged and proud. Mauri D Galiano has the talent and vision that will take him all the way and I am sure one day he will need no introduction. His work is the very highest quality. Mauri D Galiano is ready.

Howdy, Stranger!
