  The CINEGEARS Single-Axis Extreme Motor provides precise repeatable control of your focus, zoom, or iris ring, and it provides twice the torque as the Single-Axis motor and is suitable for use with prime lenses and even stiff zooms. It is compatible with an optional CINEGEARS controller, Single, Multi, Rocker, or Espresso, and ships with an interchangeable cine-style 0.8 MOD drive gear. It requires an optional power cable and rod clamp, which are available separately. You may use this motor to drive the focus, zoom, or iris gear ring on your lens. Once mounted, the lens motor will calibrate itself to your lens in a simple process. You can also manually remap your lens with the optional hand controller, and program multiple stops along the lens, simulating either hard stops, or focus positions. The motor direction is electronically reversible if you need to change the orientation of your motor, or are working with a lens that focuses in the opposite direction to standard cine lenses. The motor incorporates a LEMO jack for power and a LANC jack for camera start / stop.
  Wireless Control
  • The motor incorporates a wireless receiver that allows you to control it via your CINEGEARS Single-Axis Wireless Controller. An optional LANC cable / remote trigger is required for camera start / stop. An optional 2-pin LEMO cable is required to provide power to the motor.
  Metal Drive Gear
  • The included aluminum 0.8 MOD gear fits cine-style lens gears. The gear is removable, so you can swap it out for optional gears for video lenses and non-standard lens gears. The gear's motor facing surface is made from chrome-plated stainless steel, which matches the facing surface of the motor drive.
  Motor Function
  • The motor will calibrate itself to your lens and also allows you to remap the lens to your controller. You can program multiple stop points, especially useful when working with infinitely rotating lenses, or if you wish the set specific focus points on an optional focus hand-wheel.
  Reversible
  • The motor drive is reversible, which allows you to use lenses that focus in the opposite direction from standard without having to add a physical reversing gear.

• Customizable Geared Focus Ring Providing a way to add a standard cine-style focus gear to your lens, the CINEGEARS Customizable Geared Focus Ring is a strong yet flexible rubber gear strip that you customize to fit the circumference of your lens. The gear is delivered as a rubber strip slightly longer than 12" long, which would correspond to a focus ring barrel just under 4" in diameter.
  
  The strip comes pre-scored for accurate trimming and with pre-formed holes for the metal clip that turns the rubber strip into lens gear. The gear features 0.8 MOD teeth that interface with 32 pitch cine-style focus drive gears.
  • The 0.8 MOD gear teeth interface with industry standard 32 pitch cine-style follow focus drive gears.
  • You customize the flexible rubber strip to fit your lens. After cutting the strip to length, you butt the ends together and insert the metal clip to form the lens gear.

• 2" Rod Bracket for Lens Control Motors (19mm) The CINEGEARS 2" Rod Bracket for Lens Control Motors mounts on a 19mm support rod and allows you to mount your CINEGEARS lens control motor on your rods and drive your lens's geared focus, zoom, or iris. It features a spring-loaded locking lever that allows you to tighten the bracket on the clamp, while at the same time securing the motor to the clamp.
  • Provides height adjustment when used with an optional CINEGEARS Lens Control Motor.
  • The 19mm clamp is designed to work specifically with 19mm support rods.
  • The spring-loaded locking levers allow you to tighten or loosen the clamps, even when you do not have room to rotate the lever through 360° of rotation. If the lever becomes blocked, you gently pull up on the lever, rotate it back, and lower the lever to continue tightening or loosening it.
