Explore the innovative Kinefinity PL Lens Mount Adapter II with e-ND, a cutting-edge solution for filmmakers seeking precision and efficiency. This advanced adapter integrates an Electronic Neutral Density (e-ND) filter, leveraging modern liquid crystal materials and electronic control to deliver unparalleled image quality. Unlike traditional rotating filter wheels or polarizing ND filters, the e-ND technology ensures sharp images with consistent color fidelity, eliminating the common drawbacks of conventional variable ND filters.
Designed specifically for MAVO and TERRA cameras, the e-ND filter offers a seamless exposure adjustment over a wide range from 0.6 to 2.1 (equivalent to 2 to 7 stops). This eliminates the need for multiple optical ND filters in front of your lenses, streamlining your setup by removing the necessity for filter holders or matte boxes. The result is a more compact and lightweight shooting system, ideal for solo filmmakers, documentary shoots, or challenging environments such as the North and South Poles.
The PL mount adapter is equipped with electronic contacts that support the Cooke i/protocol, enabling compatibility with lenses that utilize this technology and allowing for the display of lens information. This integration ensures that your MAVO or TERRA camera can automatically detect and calibrate the e-ND filter, maintaining color accuracy across the entire tuning range. This automatic calibration is a significant advantage over traditional optical ND filters, which cannot communicate with the camera to correct color shifts.
The Kinefinity e-ND system facilitates smooth and continuous adjustment of filter density via the MAVO/TERRA's control wheel and internal firmware, without the need for additional power supplies or mechanical devices. This feature not only reduces the cost and storage requirements associated with multiple glass filters but also enhances your ability to achieve precise exposure settings. By maintaining consistent ISO, shutter speed, and lens iris, you can optimize dynamic range and depth of field with minimal trial and error.
Embrace the future of filmmaking with the Kinefinity PL Lens Mount Adapter II with e-ND, and focus on capturing stunning visuals without the hassle of traditional ND filter systems.
