The Lightweight Follow Focus LFF-1 is a compact and lightweight modular follow focus for hand held use. It has been specifically designed for small and lightweight cameras like the 235 or ARRICAM Lite, but can be used on any camera when weight and size are an issue. The LFF-1 can be purchased either as a basic set or piece by piece.

The LFF-1 shines through its simple yet flexible design. Its swing arm can be rotated a full 360°, and the drive direction can be quickly reversed by flipping the unit over. That way, the LFF-1 can be used above or below the lens, on camera right or left, with the drive direction preferred by the assistant. Through the use of high precision parts, gear play has been minimized for a secure feel when pulling focus.

The LFF-1 can be mounted on many cameras in many positions. It attaches to a single 19 mm support rod via the Rod Mounting Bracket (RMB-1) or to a 15 mm support rod via the RMB-1 and the 15 mm Rod Reducer Sleeve set.

Compatibility with the focus knobs from the Lightweight Focus Drive (LFD) system opens up all the existing follow focus accessories to the LFF-1, like a left and right focus knob, flat and beveled marking disks, the "L" shaped focus crank, short or long focus whips, etc. A large selection of precision focus gears for many cine and video lenses is also available, including a special gear for lenses with axial movement of the focus ring.
