There is an amazing new follow focus lens gear about to hit the market called the ZERO, which is made by Broken Anchor Design. They are currently raising funds on Kickstarter to get the first batch made and shipped now that the prototype is fully functioning.
We haven’t had a chance to try this follow focus lens gear ring out on a project, but there are a lot of things that we love about their design:
Another huge plus is that since it fits a huge range of lens sizes, you only need to buy one. With other lens gear rings, you have to get different versions based on what lens you are using.
We really encourage people to check out Broken Anchor Design’s Kickstarter campaign to learn more. It’s getting some great traction, and should be fully funded soon!
Company Profile
Broken Anchor Design is a premium cinema accessory design company, specializing in creative equipment, designed to re-define the ease of your workflow.
Our fundamental belief is defined by an ambition to create products that improve the user experience through more than just function. We take on challenges from a ground up approach and look at every detail to enhance ergonomics, function and the user connection, in beautifully designed products.
Our mission is to create amazing things, for the people, who create amazing things!
Broken Anchor Design’s premier product is a follow-focus lens gear that was designed to be an intuitive piece of equipment that complements your workflow, rather than holding it back!
Zero – The world’s most versatile follow focus lens gear.
ZERO is the world’s first truly universal, 360º seamless follow focus lens gear. The lens gear is designed to fit nearly any lens in your kit and boasts a blistering 3-second install time, making lens changes a breeze. The seamless outer gear is completely free of any obstructions, meaning you spend less time setting up your gear and can simply focus on the shot. Featuring an oversized, fixed diameter, Zero gives you the highest degree of accuracy when pulling focus and offers you the most repeatable and consistent action, every time.
But function isn’t the only thing we care about at Broken Anchor Design. We believe a product should be beautiful, inside and out! The amazing technical capabilities are completely framed within a stunning physical appearance that presents its true professional-grade quality. We believe design should be so much more than just features and benefits; it should have that inspired human touch.
