Precision Control for Cinema Optics

The ARRI Follow Focus FF-5 Cine Set Basic (KK.0005757) offers an uncompromising mechanical lens control solution designed specifically for cine-style lenses. Featuring a 2:1 internal gearing ratio, the FF-5 Cine base slows down knob rotation relative to the drive gear, granting focus pullers fine control over expansive focal marks. This setup provides maximum confidence when pulling focus on wide-aperture cinema glass where depth of field is exceptionally tight.

Multi-Gear Drive Capability

To accommodate different lens spacing and ring depths, this starter kit includes two distinct 0.8 Mod focus gears. The standard 43-tooth, 6mm gear offers lightweight, nimble performance for prime lenses, while the wider 35-tooth, 10mm gear maintains continuous gear contact during subtle lens shifts or focus barrel sliding on larger cinema zooms.

Flexible and Modular Rigging

Built as a core building block for modular camera packages, the FF-5 Cine base can be easily expanded to fit various production requirements. It mounts to lightweight support systems and adapts quickly to 15mm or 19mm studio rod bridge plates using optional adapters. Its rugged metal construction holds up against harsh, fast-paced shooting environments while maintaining a smooth, backlash-free operation.
