BMPCC 6k Pro Battery Grip & Wireless Follow Focus

PostSun May 16, 2021 4:42 pm

Anyone encountered this issue while using a WFF - given that there's only a single mounting point for the Battery Grip - If I do a fast rack, or even rather slow, the focus motor pushes up on the lens and that pushes up on the body. Since there is only that single center mounting point for the grip, the body rocks. I have tried really cranking the tie down, and it still always happens. No issues without the grip on though.

I think this is a terminal design flaw that can't be fixed, but I'm hoping someone else has a solution.

I can post a video if needed.

Thanks
