Which support systems am I supposed to use with the PRO35?
* by default the PRO35 is delivered with a 15 mm light weight support system, including
the required support bridge and two 15 mm rods.
Please
to connect this leight weight support system to your 2/3" video camera you
need a bottom plate, prepared for light weight support!
* for heavy duty support with the PRO35 please refer to chapter 1.2 (page 8 following)
Why do I need a support system?
* In order to stabilize your setup and take weight of the video camera’s B4 mount.
* offers the possibility to connect accessories like matte box or follow focus to your
PRO35 setup

Which lenses do you recommend to use and why?

You always have to keep in mind, that you have a light loss of 1.5 stops with the PRO35.
The faster the lens, the more light is left for exposure! Over and above a wide opened
front aperture creates a smaller depth of fi eld.
