    Novoflex Castel Fine Focus Adjustment   Handle
    The Fine Adjustment Handle for Castel by Novoflex is an extension handle for fine focus adjustment of the Castel-Q, XQ-II, and Mini II focusing racks. The Castel focusing racks are used in macro and stereo photography to ensure correct framing and the sharpest focus possible. The extension handle not only offers smooth control of the fine focus, but brings the hand away from the rack and the camera, helping to eliminate accidental bumps and providing better motor control of your hand as it adjusts the focus.

Tilta  Seamless Focus Gear   Rings
Tilta's  Seamless Focus Gear Ring allows you to add 0.8 MOD gears to a compatible lens for use with cine follow focuses. The sizes fits virtually all lenses of the same outer diameter. The seamless version is designed with an improvement over Tilta's earlier gear rings in that it's fully closed and requires no screws in order to be secured to the lens. As a result, it attaches to the lens more easily and provides evenly distributed pressure while ensuring zero drifting and accurate focus. It's made of durable, flexible rubber, attaches firmly, and works silent and smooth along 360° of rotation. There are 14 different sizes to choose from for different lenses.

• New York Times -  April 1986:

For lighting a small, three-dimensional object, a useful device is the Bogen Light Modulator System, which operates as a sort of super mini-studio for this kind of work. The device, which is somewhat bigger than a breadbox, looks rather like a spidery creature out of a science-fiction movie and is designed to be used with tungsten-balanced films such as Ektachrome 50 Professional. This unit allows for easy 360-degree lighting of an object. Instead of electronic flash, it uses three 50-watt quartz halogen lamps, each of which is attached to the end of a jointed, lockable arm. On the fourth arm are reflecting mirrors. There is a small, movable glass stage on which to place the object being photographed. Each lamp accepts a variety of accessories, such as diffusers, color or polarizing filters, and special-effect lenses.

The Light Modulator lists for $600, with accessories running from $3.50 to $80 1986
