Why do I need one?
Because!
Every cameraman will eventually be in a location where they'll
need a wide shot and due to space limitations will be unable to get one. This
situation would require a temporary wide angle adapter.
A wide angle adapter works well in shots where a dramatic angle is needed to
increase perspective, to accentuate the effects of fast motion, or on shots that
float through a room on a steadicam, to smooth movement.

Professional Wide
Angle Lens Adapters |
| The Red Eye is a "NON-ZOOM
THROUGH" professional wide angle lens adapter, designed to work with a broad
range of DV and Broadcast lenses. It threads onto the front of a camera lens that is equipped with an auto focus, macro or back focus adjustment. With this adapter, the angle of view on most camera lenses will be INCREASED BY 30% with the .7x and by 50% with the .5x. The Red Eye is about the size of a filter and weighs less than 100 grams. The bulk and weight have been eliminated by using a durable and compact, high index, high clarity optical material which substantially reduces the size and weight of the lens. |
 |
| All Red Eye wide angle lens
adapters feature a multi layer anti-reflective coating to increase light
transmission to near 100% for optimum image clarity, contrast and sharpness.
In addition, hard coatings offer an extra degree of scratch resistance and
improve water repellence. The lens housing is anodized aluminium and uses
standard 58mm, 72mm or 82mm thread mounts. Each lens comes with its own
hand-crafted padded leather pouch with belt fitting.
One Major advantage of the Red Eye is that it can be used with your existing lens hoods and matte boxes. In most cases, simply screw the Red Eye wide angle lens adapter on your lens and attach the lens shade. Some lens shades require that the Red Eye be mounted with the shade attached. |

Will it work with my DV camera?
Yes... but not all DV cameras can focus in at very close range giving them macro
focus ability. To make these cameras work with the Red Eye
, the operator may need to use the auto focus feature if there is difficulty
focusing using the focus ring. In short, if your DV camera is equipped with a
macro feature, then the Red Eye should work with
your DV camera.
Can I zoom with the Red Eye ?
It Depends.... If a Red Eye is used on a
broadcast television camera lens, the answer is no. The
Red Eye was designed as a non-zoom through wide angle adapter. Set the
zoom lens to its widest focal length, adjust focus ring to infinity and focus
using the macro adjustment.
But ...... pro-consumer DV cameras are the exception.
In most cases, when the camera is in auto focus mode the cameraman will actually
be able to zoom with the Red Eye . This is a
function of the camera more than the Red Eye .
None the less, you will be able to cover roughly ½ the zoom range using the DV
cameras auto focus feature.
