BMPCC 4k Autofocus

PostFri Jul 05, 2024 10:24 am

Hi there,

first of all, thanks to anyone answering. I am not new to Blackmagic cameras, but to autofocus and have no background in filming except for in a studio.
I am using the Pocket Cinema 4k with the Sigma 18-35mm 1:1.8 which has always done me a great service - I have two identical cams now.
I now switched from manual focus to autofocus - just indoors, always from shooting one perspective to another, but never moving between them.
I chose this adapater: https://viltrox.com/de/products/viltrox ... ens-to-m43
It says, it supports the Sigma and it shows the BMPCC in the images.

However, the autofocus is completely wrong when I start it. It did however do something at the very beginning. But now it just doesnt turn anyhow.
When I try to control it via Bluetooth everything works great except for changing the focus.

However, I don't have someone else to film so it be quite a help to get the AF.

Thanks!
