  DOF Adapters for EX1

  Posted by Peter North on April 2, 2009 at 6:37 pm

  Hey everyone,

  I own an EX-1 and I’m looking into buying either the Letus Elite or a Brevis. I have heard some negative imaging problems with the Brevis.

  Anyone have any advice towards either one???

  Cheers

  I have the Letus and I love it. They offer a kit with the adapters specifically for the EX1, rails and case (I recommend getting the whole kit). I use it mostly for interviews, and man, it’s great to finally get that truly shallow filmlike depth of field. It takes maybe and extra 15 minutes or so to set up. It costs you only about a 1/2 a stop and makes amazing images. Good luck!

  I own an EX3 with Letus Ultimate and Nikon lenses. You should be able to find all your answers on the Letus site or this one: https://www.dvinfo.net/conf/let-us-discuss-letus/

  But I’m happy to answer any questions you might have.
