Redrock Micro to Transform Canon EOS 5D Mark II and Nikon D90 Intro Production Ready Cinema Solutions
October 30, 2008 — Redrock Micro, a company started in 2004 that sells a line of high quality cinema accessories for independent filmmakers, film educators and students, and budget-conscious moviemakers, has announced new accessories that bring the needed cinema form factor, support, and features to video DSLRs like the Nikon D90 and Canon EOS 5D Mark II.

Rock-solid 15mm support system
Follow focus for accurate and repeatable focusing
