The buzz and excitement is everywhere and a lot of photographers are trying to get their hands on the new GH-4 camera from Panasonic.

I was speaking to a camera reviewer last week and he said it would be better with a soft rubber eyecup. It just so happens Cambo have one.

Here are some shots from the Calumet Open Day, London – eyecups modelled by Nigel and Richard from the Panasonic UK Distributors, Holdans.

The eyecup is soft and very flexible fitting comfortably for left or right eye viewing. I really like this eyecup as I can use it wearing my spectacles! Priced at €30.00 / £29.00 +TAX / VAT and post.

It’s not often you bump into the Gadgetman; John Bentley. Well if the truth be known I asked “Hi John what do you think of the new Cambo follow focus?”

John presents the latest products, innovations and gadgets available in the market today and has a huge knowlege of digital photography, video and all things gadgety! He enthuses when reviewing the latest technology and in my opinion is the main man on Channel 5‘s The Gadget Show.

He replied “Oooh, very nice. Its smooth and there is no play in the mechanism” he continued “what a well engineered product, so how much is it?” Not wanting to disappoint John, more like shocking him “It sells for £672.00”… a delay…an intake of breath.. “Wow that’s cheap and it has 2 adjustable stops!”

Yes, the Cambo MFC-2 follow focus is beautifully crafted and was a huge hit when launched last year. Fitted with a “Swing” single rail fixing its compact and solid in every position.

But I hear you say “I don’t have those fantastic grippy Cambo rails?” Don’t despair as we have a Dual Rail Version MFC-22 for all those users wishing to upgrade. There is also a Single grip 19mm rail version MFC-9.

The video shows the MFC-3:

The MFC-2 is available now from Cambo retailers around the World.
