Zacuto's Z-focus is an extremely accurate follow focus that allows the operator or assistant to pull focus. The Z-focus can come single sided or double sided in studio 15mm or 19mm or in a lightweight configuration. The mechanism utilizes a set of gears that connect to and spin the focus ring or Zacuto zip gear on the camera lens. The white disk allows the focus puller to create distance marked for repeatable focus pulls.
The Zacuto Z-Focus (Follow Focus) includes:
-Completely gear-driven design for slip free, accurate movement.
-Helicel gear adjustment screw to allow user to tighten up gear play
-Interchangeable drive gears
-Magnetic dry erase marking disk
-Standard accessory port for Zacuto, Chrosziel, and Arri follow focus whips and speed cranks.
-Industry-standard 15mm lightweight rod mount
-Lightweight design
-Other drives available in Fuji .6 & Canon .5 pitches
The Z-focus comes standard with a .8 pitch, if another pitch is needed that can be specified when ordering. If you need more than one pitch, those can be ordered separately.
Its a lovely unit, very smooth and it uses a lovely gear system. With the Zacuto Z-Focus you undo the lock at the bottom, slide the follow focus back and forth until you make contact and lock her in to the gear. It is a GREAT system and is flawless. Philip Bloom, DoP Director Editor
