IDEA Focusmate camera focusing platform
- Description
Do you have a DSLR with manual focus or want to control the focus/zoom remotely? The Focusmate Camera Focusing Platform is made from solid CNC aluminum. The Focusmate allows you to attach this your telescope mount and allows precision electronic focusing for almost any camera lens.
If you own a Robofocus, this is already compatible and will bolt on in minutes. If you don't have one, we have a beta product with a red-illuminated, dimmable hand controller with built-in Bluetooth, so you can control it with your smartphone or computer.
The motor attaches to your camera's lens with a notched drive belt and tension can be adjusted by moving the slider back and forth.
A Vixen-style plate is available from IDEA Engineering, IDEA-008, that will allow you to attach your camera to the top and attach the Focusmate to your mount.
All knobs have rounded heads to minimize marring of your dovetail plates.
This comes with the RoboFocus attachment kit (3mm allen wrench and 6mm grub screw.) This replaces the outer knob to allow room for the Robofocus motor housing.
