I have an a7S with Movcam cage/riser. Will the height on this center my lens properly? I've had trouble w/ other adjustable matte boxes being too high

Yes this matrix is super adjustable you will not have a problem with the adjustment.

The distance from the center of the 15mm rod to the center of the lens opening is adjustable between about 3.75 inches to 4.5 in. You just need to take a ruler to your rig and see if this your distance falls within that range. I got my matte box out and measured it. I just hell up a ruler so I could be off a little.

The top of the ball is an Arca-Swiss type clamp. So you would need an adapter plate that screws into the bottom of the a7. The supplied ballhead would then clamp onto that adapter plate.On a recent outing, I accidentally left a larger tripod at home that I use with a 5 pound spotting scope. With the scope balanced (using an adapter plate) the tripod was quite usable.

Normally it is one step higher... I had got 72mm and the lens cap that sits on it is 77mm... in ur case it should be 58mm i think

If you're referring to the Sony A7 - then it should, as long as the weight is below the maximum camera weight. I bought a replacement head for this unit and use it in lieu of the ball head on this tripod. A replacement head is cheap, and will give you more accurate control over pan/tilt/and leveling your camera. Ball heads in general aren't very precise.

Every SLR has different spacing on the tripod screw holes. You might order one, try it and return it if it doesn't fit. I have used quite a few of these, they are a bargain. I find the distance from the eye lens to the LCD finder a little short for my eyesight, but just the eye cup is worth $15.00. The magnetic attachment is not perfect, but works fairly well. I don't have an A-7 but love Sony products.

Will it fit? Yes... But opening it up past 13 - 14 mm will create dark rings on the edges of the picture. I ended up giving mine away after getting a full frame body (6D)

Yes that is the same camera I have. I used this tripod with a massive Nikon 12-24mm lens. The only drawback is the last section of legs are very small and tend to flex if extended. So I don't normally use them and make up that height with the center section. You also might want to look at the amazon basic tripod.

The tripod bolt on top should just be able to screw right on to the middle ring. The only thing i can think of why its not fitting os the tripod screw is slightly big/small, or the screw or mount on the lens may have stripped threads.

Haven't had that experience yet. I so far have used my Canon 7d, 5d mkII and 70d. I don't know the dimensions of the BMCC but if it fits insid the cage and you find a compatible mount(you'll need to experiment around with that yourself) then it should be fine,

Definitely get a different cage. This is an older version meant mainly for panasonic's gh series. Does not come with a top handle and there are several newer cages that will work perfectly with the A7S

Hi - Just double-checked a couple of OM lenses on my Sony a7r using this adapter. I want to make sure I'm completely understanding the question: if you're asking whether there will be any vignetting of the image, the answer is no (except to the extent that a specific lens shows some light falloff at the edges, but that's not an adapter issue, and you'd have the same phenomenon on an OM film body). If the question is whether or not the image will be cropped (using the term to refer to the so-called "crop factor" associated with smaller-than-24x36 sensors): again, the answer's no. OM lenses are full-frame lenses, the a7 is a full-frame body - so no cropping of the image. Hope that's helpful!

Strange issue. It fitted on all my FD lenses, including a Vivitar lense. I recomend you to consult the instructions manual or ask online to the manufacturer.

I bought mine for a 70-200af lens so I don't really know but if I were to guess it might have trouble with the m/a mode.

I very much doubt it. First it is not a great idea to stack lenses to begin with. Besides, if I am not mistaken, you are trying to stack a 77 mm lense under a 72mm lenses.

This is just a personal opinion - I use this support for the 24-105 when on occasion I'm using slow exposures because it does not have a tripod mount and it is heavy and allows vibration during exposure. On lenses with balancing tripod mount, this doesn't seem to be an issue. That being said, the mount does come apart and extend a great deal, and could be adapted either for mounting the camera or lens, giving a two point support instead of one, albeit with the front support somewhat in the way.

I didn't get back in time to edit, but I would normally call it a step-up ring. It just has the unusual 60mm threads for the SX30 lense.I don't want someone to get confused and think this is something strange, it's just not a standard size lens mount, if I'm correct.

That took me a while too. I found that the ring on the lens (red ring around it) end moved back and forth, not a twist off. That's how I switched to fish eye. I can't remember if I used an adapotor ring to fit just the fisheye or not, but once I did the focus became manual instead of automatic. I hope I answered your question. I'll play with it and try to update you if I can get more specific.
