New cheap speed crank for follow focus systems just popped up today. These little levers attach to the side of a Follow Focus knob and makes it easier to move from point to point. The 12mm x 12mm on this crank is an industry standard and should fit Most FF systems (not old RJ ones). The image below looks like they have it mounted on a Fotga, but for sure I know it will work on the new Gini iFocus - I measured mine.
Aluminum, black anodized, 12mmx12mm, and the first time i've seen one below $17 dollars. Just had to grab one for myself (found here).

If you guys aren't hip to the Gini Rigs iFocus follow focus, there's some new listings over at the store front (click here).

I'm with Nikita. I measured my early RJ rig and it's 7mm. Is anyone making one or do I need to custom fab my own?

Incredibly ugly red.. Nothing a little spraypaint can't fix!

They have a blue handled one up for $22 bucks. Anybody know where I can get a decently cheap focus whip? I could have used one last night for a job.

Post author@DL - Not sure, but for under $17 bucks now, i'm not sure if it's worth the DIY.

i don't have a FF, but out of intellectual curiosity, would a standard 1/2" socket attachment fit this (and whatever else you might thereby be able to attach that way)?
1" = 25.4mm
1/2" = 12.7mm (but probably less, to account for slop.

What should we do, pure early RJ owners?

Oh Emm, I didnt know you had the new gini focus. So is this your new fave budget FF? DFocus or Gini? I need an upgrade from my FFF (Finger Follow Focus).
