- Interchangeable gear system accommodates lenses with different gear ring sizes
- Fluid damping on the focus wheel provides smooth, controlled focus pulls
- Simulated lens damping provides smooth, controlled resistance during focus adjustments
- Compact and lightweight composite construction adds minimal bulk to a rig
- Lightweight composite material construction keeps rig weight down
- Mounts on a single 15mm rod for broad compatibility with existing rig setups
- Lightweight composite material construction keeps overall rig weight down
- Mounts on a single 15mm rod for broad rig compatibility
- Compatible with any standard 15mm rod system for broad rig compatibility
👎 Cons
- Requires a separate lens gear ring for lenses that lack built-in focus gearing
- Requires a 15mm rod system, so it cannot be used directly on cages or rigs that lack rod support
- Requires a 15mm rod setup, so it cannot be used on rigs or cages without rod support
- Lenses without a built-in gear ring require a separately purchased lens gear ring to use this follow focus
- Only one 15mm rod mount point, which may shift under heavy use if not properly secured
- Single 15mm rod mount can allow slight rotational play compared to dual-rod designs
- The compact focus wheel diameter may feel small for operators accustomed to full-size cine follow focus units
- Does not include a lens gear ring, which is needed for lenses without built-in gear teeth
- Single 15mm rod mounting may introduce slight flex under heavy-handed operation compared to dual-rod systems
- No whip or crank handle included for faster focus throws
- No whip or crank handle included for extended-reach focus pulling
- Does not include a whip or speed crank accessory for rapid focus throws
Frequently Asked Questions
How do the A/B hard stops work on the FF-T07?
The quick-release hard stop system lets you set two focus marks (A and B) that physically stop the focus wheel's rotation at each point, allowing you to rack between two predetermined focus distances quickly and repeatably.
What gear pitch does the Tilta FF-T07 come with, and can it be swapped?
It includes a 0.8mm pitch gear, which is the most common standard. The gears are interchangeable, so you can swap in different sizes to match lenses with various gear ring diameters.
How does the A/B hard stop system work on the FF-T07?
The quick-release hard stop system lets you set two focus marks (A and B) that physically limit the rotation of the focus wheel, allowing you to snap between two predetermined focus points quickly and repeatably.
What gear pitch does the FF-T07 use, and can it be swapped?
It comes with a 0.8mm pitch gear, which is the most common standard. The gears are interchangeable, so you can swap to a different size to match lenses with various gear ring diameters.
How do the A/B hard stops work?
The quick-release hard stop system lets you set two focus marks (A and B) that physically prevent the focus wheel from rotating past those points, allowing repeatable rack focuses between two predetermined positions.
What gear pitch does the FF-T07 use, and can it be changed?
It ships with a 0.8mm pitch gear, which is the most common standard. The gears are interchangeable, so you can swap in a different size to match lenses with non-standard gear rings.
Does this follow focus fit on any 15mm rod system?
Yes, it clamps onto a single 15mm rod, which is the standard diameter used by most rig manufacturers, so it is compatible with the majority of shoulder rigs, cages, and rail systems.
Does this follow focus require a specific rig or cage?
It mounts to any standard single 15mm rod, making it compatible with most 15mm rod-based camera rigs, cages, and shoulder mounts.
How does the FF-T07 mount to a camera rig?
It mounts to any standard single 15mm rod, making it compatible with most 15mm rod-based camera support systems, shoulder rigs, and cages.
Does the FF-T07 have a damping feature?
Yes, it includes simulated lens damping that provides tactile resistance during focus pulls, giving smoother and more controlled adjustments.
Can I use this with lenses that don't have a gear ring?
Yes, but you'll need a separate lens gear ring (sometimes called a focus gear or zip gear) attached to your lens. The follow focus drives the lens via gear-to-gear contact.
Can I use this follow focus on lenses without a gear ring?
You will need to add a separate lens gear ring (not included) to lenses that do not have built-in focus gearing. These rings are widely available in various diameters.
Does the damping on the focus knob simulate the feel of a cine lens?
Yes, the built-in damping system adds resistance to the focus wheel rotation, giving a smoother, more controlled feel similar to dedicated cinema lenses, which helps prevent overshooting your focus mark.
Does the focus wheel have resistance or damping?
Yes, the FF-T07 features simulated lens damping built into the focus wheel, providing a smooth, tactile feel during focus pulls.
Can this follow focus be used with lenses that do not have a gear ring?
You would need to add a separate lens gear ring to the lens first. The FF-T07 drives focus through its gear mechanism, so it requires a toothed gear ring on the lens to engage with.
