Zacuto Releases Letus35 Extreme Studio Handheld Packages

Chicago, IL - Zacuto is announcing the release their new packages for the [URL=http://www.zacuto.com/Letus.htm]Letus35 Extreme Lens Adapter[/URL] [http://www.zacuto.com/Letus.htm]. Zacuto’s product line for [URL=http://store.zacuto.com/manufacturers.php?manufacturerid=37]Letus35 Extreme[/URL] [http://store.zacuto.com/manufacturers.php?manufacturerid=37] features a complete setup for handheld use that is lightweight - while integrating all the functionality of Zacuto’s highly rated line of camera support accessories. Besides the handheld package, configurations are also available in two other kits for tripod mounting.

Zacuto’s [URL=http://www.zacuto.com/Letus_studio_handheld_kit.htm]Letus Studio Handheld Package[/URL] [http://www.zacuto.com/Letus_studio_handheld_kit.htm] includes the [URL=http://www.adapterplace.com/content/view/21/5/lang,en/]Letus35 Shallow Depth of Field Adapter[/URL] [http://www.adapterplace.com/content/view/21/5/lang,en/] plus all the Zacuto brand hardware necessary to achieve a balanced and completely quick-releasable (Zacuto trademark) shooting outfit that is quick to setup and fast to move about on location.

The DOF adapter is a powerful tool, allowing inexpensive DV, HDV and HD cameras with small CCD’s to capture a shallow depth-of-field to achieve a 35mm motion picture look. One interesting benefit is that while the DOF is very similar to 35mm film cameras; with the 1/3” pickup area, the field-of-view is much wider. This is a huge benefit to independent filmmakers because they are typically on location vs. a studio and need the widest field-of-view (wide angle) they can get. The Letus35 Extreme adapter is an affordable yet high quality unit which is easy to use and will fit all cameras.

“After extensive tests, I’ve found that Letus35 Extreme loses the least amount of light of any of the DOF adapters on the market (including P+S-Technik & the Movie Tube)” says, Jens Bogehegn, Product Designer/Technician Zacuto USA.

“Our handheld kit for the Letus35 adapter uses more than a dozen of Zacuto’s best products, including our [URL=http://store.zacuto.com/product.php?productid=30&cat=0&page=1]latest (Version 3) Universal Baseplate[/URL] [http://store.zacuto.com/product.php?productid=30&cat=0&page=1] and [URL=http://store.zacuto.com/product.php?productid=69&cat=0&page=1]Z-grips[/URL] [http://store.zacuto.com/product.php?productid=69&cat=0&page=1] ” says Steve Weiss, Zacuto’s Co-Designer/Sales Director. “Z-Grips give you that Zacuto low hand position that DP’s say is much less fatiguing when shooting for many hours. Plus, the handgrips themselves fully articulate for further comfort.”
