Zacuto Z-Drive Height Adjuster

Precision Height Control for Zacuto Z-Drive Follow Focus Systems

The Zacuto Z-Drive Height Adjuster is a precision-engineered accessory that expands the versatility and compatibility of your Zacuto Z-Drive Follow Focus system. Designed to offer a broader range of vertical adjustment, this adapter enables filmmakers to precisely align the follow focus gear with a wide variety of lens diameters and configurations.

Ideal for camera rigs using lenses with varied barrel heights or setups that include Zacuto’s VCT Rotator, this height adjuster ensures perfect gear-to-lens alignment, allowing for smooth, accurate focus pulls in any shooting scenario.

Enhanced Compatibility with a Range of Lenses

Different lenses have different physical dimensions. The Z-Drive Height Adjuster compensates for this by offering adjustable vertical positioning, making it easy to:

• Align follow focus gears with larger or smaller lens barrels

• Adjust for offset lens positions when using Zacuto’s VCT Pro or VCT Rotator

• Maintain optimal gear contact for silent and slip-free focusing

This adjustability makes it essential for multi-lens setups, run-and-gun operators, and professional camera assistants working on fast-paced shoots.

Seamless Integration with Zacuto Systems

The height adjuster is purpose-built to work in tandem with:

• Zacuto Z-Drive Follow Focus

• Zacuto VCT Pro Baseplate

• Zacuto VCT Rotator

• Standard 15mm rod systems

It mounts quickly and securely, maintaining a solid connection under heavy use while still allowing for fast adjustments when switching lenses or reconfiguring your rig.

Built for Professionals

Constructed from high-quality, lightweight materials, the Z-Drive Height Adjuster is durable enough for field and studio use. Whether you’re working on documentary shoots, narrative films, or ENG-style run-and-gun projects, it ensures your follow focus setup remains reliable and responsive.
