Re: 35mm Adapter Question
Just received my 35mm DOF adapter. It's soo blurry when I'm far away or zoomed in to get pass the vignette, and there's so much vignette around the corners. I don't know if it's my Canon FD 50mm f/18 Lens or what, but I have to get up close to the object that I'm shooting to get a nice focus even then, there's still alot of vignette. I bought my 35mm DOF adapter from this site: http://www.caraveomedia.com/cam35/products.html
Anybody have any solution to get this resolve? Do I need a newer lens or is it that I need a better Camcorder?
I'm still new to all this. Here's my 35mm DOF setup:
-35mm Static DOF Adapter
-Canon FD 50mm f/1.8 Lens
-Sony HDR-CX110 Handycam

Really no way to know. Post some screen grabs and maybe we can help figure it out.

Re: 35mm Adapter Question
I took a look at the demo footage on the website you linked to. Even their demo footage is blurry and has vignette. A Letus35 Mini costs $700 instead, so I'd say you get what you pay for. And with a 30mm filter camcorder, you must be pushing the limits too far regarding vignetting.
Again, we've given you reasons *not to* use DOF adapters with your cam, they're too peculiar and we can't encourage you down that road. Check all the reputable websites and blogs, such as Philip Bloom's. Only use a combination that's already been well tried and tested, like Canon HV20 with Letus Mini. Anything else and you risk being on your own, unfortunately.
