The ABT cine SpeedMount mk2 EF for DSMC2 allows the utilization of the entire image circle of full frame lenses on the RED DSMC2 Helium / Gemini or Dragon sensor while gaining nearly one stop of light.
Compatible to all RED DSMC2 cameras except DSMC2 Dragon Mg, DSMC2 Dragon CF and early serial number Scarlet-W.
Effect
The SpeedMount is a focal length reducer with x0.72 factor that reduces the image circle of a full frame lens to S35 sensor size. Using the entire image circle of full frame lenses gives a wider field of view compared to using the same lens on S35 without the SpeedMount.
Apart from that, the SpeedMount also makes the lens approximately one f-stop faster and allows to show the entire imaging properties in the edge area of full frame lenses including focus fall off and aberrations which is often desired by DPs.
