Redrock M2 35mm adapter
Redrock Microsystems introduces the M2 – enabling you to achieve cinema-quality video at a revolutionary price. M2 allows 35mm lenses to be used with your DV or HD camera to create incredible depth-of-field, angle of view, and focus typically found in high-end film productions. The M2 works even with DV or HD cameras that have fixed lenses, such as the Panasonic AG-DVX100 and the Sony HVR-Z1U.
Redrock's M2 uses the same core technology as products cost ten times as much. This approach - known as the rotating ground glass method – is completely transparent when translating the image from the 35mm lens to your DV camera.
Other approaches use a static – or fixed – approach to the ground glass. While this approach has some merit, the image quality suffers from “grain” when moving the camera. Early prototypes of the M2 using this static approach were discarded, as it did not hold up to quality standards.
The Redrock M2 adapter is the only adapter available in the market that enables you to use smaller lens apertures to increase your depth of field. This revolutionary level of flexibility allows you to use a consistent 35mm look for all your footage, not just shallow depth-of-field shots.
