There are a lot of DIYers out there, and mostly because accessories are just too expensive. If you can afford the flash, you can't afford the modifier. At least this was the case just a few years ago. Today, DIYers are our Entrepreneurs. With networking storming onto the internet, a DIY project can go from your garage to the world within hours. That means a lot of people will be interested, and soon you might just call your yourself SmallHD.
Just three months ago, the project here was a prototype follow focus consisting of a circuit board and a battery pack. It was constructed by Slippers [Cinema5d] and he kindly updates us on every step of the process. As you can see, the unit is barely larger than the 2AA batteries powering it. This is already ideal, but the redesign is even smaller. Slippers mentions that the unit was already completely functional as-is.
Here is the video of the follow focus in use:
More info on the unit can be found in the links below.
