thanks for the response ... filmed upside down (don't have the flip hack) cos I didn't want to take the external LCD with me ... so I'm happy with the results. I think I exaggerated a little with the colour correction though ... footage is a bit too dark now.
Does anyone have any advice on how to get a jag35 to work with in IndirailsPro20 (shrig rig)?
I got my shrig in the mail today and the jag35 doesn't fit with the battery pack installed. Is it even possible?
Thanks in advance.

You will probably have to remove the battery box and make some kind of extension cable for the motor wires. Jehu built a couple like this for the Shrigg a while back (in this thread.)Originally Posted by Jake Segraves
you just have to request it when you ordered it. jehu made me a special one for my shrigg rig. Instead of the battery box on it there's just an rca port on it. I must say it works quite well.

Hi folks, hope everyone is doing well, I've been away from the forum for a few days, I just been really busy, Once again the JAG35 team grew and I was training new members while trying to keep up processing orders and developing new products and a new series of videos explaining all about 35mm adapters.
One of the new team members is my brother Misa and together we've been bouncing around ideas for a logo but the more we added the less we liked so this week we settled on a very very simple design. What do you guys think?
Also we got to finish the first of many videos designed to discuss many of the popular topics associated with adapters.
Turns out being in front of the camera is not that easy, I found it very hard to sound fluent, but hopefully i'll get better at it.

I like the simplicity. Though, I would like to see the 35 more bold.
Just a thought.
Very nice promo vid Jehu!! Must be nice living where it's always sunny, your footage always is bright and colorful.. Indiana sucks this time of year!
Does anyone know how to reach Jehu? I ordered an SP from his site on Tuesday of last week and other than what looked like an automated paypal response I have heard nothing from him. I have sent emails to jehugarcia@sbcglobal.net and jehugarcia@gmail.com, I have PM'd him thru this site and thru Vimeo. I have yet to get a response. I wanted to avoid making my troubles with communications with him public
but it has been nearly a week. I find it troublesome that someone sells a product but on the website offers no way to contact the seller other than to give them money. I based my decision to purchase from him on what great things I read on this website. Please help if you can.
photomandk,
I would just be patient. I know he gets swamped and has been away in the last few days and this is the first batch of SP's I believe. Not trying to make excuses for him as his communication could be better but it's probably best to just wait for a bit.

PHOTOMANDK.....its only been a week, the turnaround time is 10-20 working days, so have some patience.....you wont find any post saying Jehu never delivered, so try not to worry, your jag will ship out soon. its a one-man customer service dept, give him a break
==NETTHERO==
Thanks for the reply guys. I originally had a question about ordering two mounts. Maybe I misunderstood but I was under the impression given by the website that these units were complete and ready to ship already. I wanted two mounts which the price was not originally posted on the site. So my concern was simply to have them shipped together and once I did not get a reply it made me question how a person is supposed to contact him directly for further purchase. I trust it will come I would like some acknowledgement. I was also anxious to receive since I had something I wanted to shoot with it right away. The question still exists am I missing something or is there no specific way to contact him?
I am getting a lot of noise and having trouble reaching infinity focus. Is there anyway you could send me a replacement 5micron gg?
Dennis sorry to dissapoint you bud, I have tons of email I just have not been able to get to, I can usually get to them quick but I just haven't this past few days. I've been able to delegate some tasks to others and it's working real good, currently if you order a pro for example I can ship it withing a couple of days, but other tasks are proving more difficult to delegate like building the new SP adapter, hacking and answering emails, these currently still require my personall attention. I'm giving it all I have Dennis I understand some people are more patient and understanding than others so if this is completely unacceptable and you would like to cancell your order, I would understand.
Sure thing, although not sure how fast i can get to it.

If I could get it before the 20th, that would be great.
Thanks for the reply Jehu, I definitely still want my SP. I am very excited to have it. I can be patient. I am now just wondering if the HV20.com forum is actually your preferred method of contact. So the original question still applies... how does someone get in touch with Jehu? I am not rushing you but do you have a guess when you might expect to ship the first SP's? I understand they a a hand -made to order product so if there is still a lead time that is fine. I just would like to know about when.
Thanks again,
I receive emails at
Jehugarcia@sbcglobal.net or
jehugarcia@gmail.com or
jehug@me.com
Its all the same they all land on my inbox.
SPs are shipping, i believe you are #7 or #8 and will be able to ship it today or tomorrow.
jehu, I thought you might want to know of a typo I noticed on your site. Under the DIY DOF body Tube, it says: "witch can loon"
Should say "which can look"
I just thought you should know.
Did you finally solve the flickering problem with your new adapter ?
What about motor noise from the spinning wheel ?
Jehu,
I ordered the SP today and have a couple questions that others might be wanting to know.
It sounds like I can basically use any lens without worrying about what f it is...is that correct?
Does the spinner take more light than the Pro?
How much light do we lose?
Is it quieter than the pro?
I haven't seen you post too much about the benefits of the spinner and maybe you could help us understand more if you gave us some quick advantage points
Thanks.
From what I understand, the advantage of a spinner in general is that the gg is moving much faster than in a vibrating adapter. This allows you to stop down much more with a spinner than a vibrating adapter without seeing the texture of the gg. I have the Jag35pro and you can't really go down past f/5.6 without the texture/grain showing up.
Right, I understand this, but I am hoping Jehu can give us more specific information that I questioned about.
BTW I also have the pro and can't get anywhere near F/5.6
Yeah, I was just repeating what Jehu told me, I haven't actually done a test myself. Most of the stuff I have shot was at 1.8 or 2.
