Hey everyone, I'm racking my brain over here and cant seem to troubleshoot this lens issue. Camera: Red Epic W Gimbal: Movi M10 Lens: Canon CN-E 14mm 3.1 Movi Controller for Focus and camera control. Im using a RR FF unit paired through the Movi Controller on an M10 with the most up to date firmware. I can control the lens but will NOT get the full throw ( Infiniti - 8" ) even when I do a custom calibration set the in and out at respective distances. The most throw I can get is from Infiniti to about 2'. I've tried adjusting the torque speed, but it seems like the RR unit wont do more than 2 revolutions to hit the nearest focus distance. I have a shoot coming up on Monday and really want to get this fixed. I usually just have my AC adjust the motor so I can get the correct throw but then I lose the ability to focus at any distance I would like which is beyond infuriating. The weird part is when I connect my finger wheel focus controller I get full throw to infiniti and near with ease and no issues. Any input is greatly appreciated
you can re zero the focus wheel on the movi controller. I had to do that with mine. I cant find the procedure at the moment. I can track it down in the morning. From a post by Byran Edmonds There is a calibration option in the MōVI Controller under the Tx Config::Tx Action menu. 1. Turn the Focus wheel all the way to the right. 2. Flip the User 3 switch to the "up" position. 3. Under Tx Config::Tx Action scroll to Calibrate and press SET 4. Turn the Focus wheel all the way to the left. 5. Flip the User 3 switch to the "down" position. 6. Under Tx Config::Tx Action scroll to Calibrate and press SET 7. Under Tx Config::Tx Action scroll to Save and press SET Check out page 28 of the MōVI Controller Manual for future reference on this process.
