Hi Everyone,
is there someone successfully using Loki focus system already.
I did calibrate and mapped my lenses, but having problem programming focus. For example when press “move to position” it always move all the way to beginning no matter what is the position of the keyframe on the timeline. Maybe “move to position” only work for arm positions and not for the focus or it is some kind of a known issue?

There is still an issue when you create the lens mapping using the “Reverse” option – we will provide a fix in the next ZM Studio update.

Workaround:
Please swap the lens motor so that you do NOT to have use the “Reverse” option when creating a lens mapping.
Once you have created a mapping you can use the “Reverse” options depending on your mounting position.

I was having the same problema and I tried the same solution that Michael mentioned and it solved the issue for me.

Yes, it does work perfectly for me, too! Thanks Michael!

Focus motor acts as it has his own will. Some keyframes memorize positions and some are not. When I try to change single keyframe it does not store the position. It should be easy task.
Also, when I use a lens without hard focus stop and hit calibrate it goes all over the limiters on the rubber adapter, how to calibrate those lenses?

We are going to release a ZM Studio update next week which will fix the issue some of our users are experiencing with the focus system.
