Jag 35 wireless follow focus? (or similar)

bheath

Gearing up for a tourism shoot using GH2 on a long crane. Does anyone have experience with the Jag 35 version 2 wireless ff? Or any other wireless unit? I could rent the usual F.I.Z., but I'd like to buy a unit of my own for under 2k Thanks

As I remember all of cheap wired and wireless FF are noisy, some are noisy as hell. And are not really best.

@Vitaliy_Kiselev - Yup. Even the expensive ones are pretty noisy. Most of my stuff is dual system sound or mos, so it's a bit less of a concern.

On the crane you can try this:

really no competition to proper system, but on crane it could work for some shots.

@Vitaliy_Kiselev - I bet it would be a good solution, especially with wider lenses.

Howdy, Stranger!
