VERTIGO M RENTAL PACKAGE

$175 / Day $525 / Week

The fastest way to change a lens, VERTIGO-M1 (non-electronic) is sealed against dust and moisture, allowing you to swing between EF mount lenses with the flexibility of a zoom.

The only lens turret for modern cinema cameras and the world’s first removable cinema lens turret.

  • -Sony Burano

    -Sony FX9

    -Sony Venice 1 and 2

    -Sony FX6*

    -Sony FS7MK2

    Does not fit Red, Arri, Black Magic, Canon or Sony FX3 Cameras

  • The Vertigo M1 accepts most manual-focus EF mount lenses within the following specifications: 

    -A maximum outside diameter of 92mm.  

    -A maximum weight of 2.5 lbs each 

    -A maximum length of 130mm / 5 inches

    NOTE:

    -Longer/ heavier lenses may be supported via a 15mm rod base (not included).

    -The M1 does NOT provide an electronic connection to the lenses, so they may not operate as you expect (ie. electronically controlled iris, AF and IS will not operate). 

    -EF lenses with outside diameters greater than 93mm (ie 114mm Canon CN-E, Zeiss CP2) may be mountable, but only singly, or paired with lenses of smaller diameter.  

    -Extremely wide lens-bases (at EF mount end) may not fit. Canon 85mm 1.4 do fit. We have’t yet found a lens that won’t fit, but you might :)

    -If it looks wrong, don’t mount it.  

    -Remember that lenses on the VERTIGO-M may “see” each other, so don’t plan on using a short 8mm with a long 200mm. Select wider lenses (20mm or less) that are the same physical length (or longer) than your other lenses and you should be safe.

  • 15mm Rod Baseplate

    Vertigo requires a 15mm rod lightweight-spacing base that accepts our 15mm rod bracket and does not project forward of the camera’s E-mount.

    This rental package includes a customized 15mm LW rod base and 6” Arri-style dovetail plate which will allow the built camera to be mounted on many video heads (ie Sachtler Video 18/20). Longer dovetail plates may be useful for larger tripod heads.

    Handheld

    The width of the Vertigo requires the stock Sony grip to be offset and there are two rosette extensions included with the rental package.

    We recommend the use of a 50mm rosette extension and Shape’s grip extension.

    The Vertigo is often also used with Easyrigs and monopods.

  • Package contains:

    -Vertigo M1 Lens Turret

    -Vertigo 15mm Baseplate

    -6” Dovetail plate (Arri-style)

    -2 x 25mm rosette spacers

    -Kickstand w. monopod QR plate (monopod not included)

    -FX6 mounting kit

    -Pelican case

    -4 x dust caps
