It uses ultrasonic measuring and two mobile radio reflectors – tags. Qinematiq Smart Ranger 2 To achieve certain shots, DPs sometimes put focus pullers in very difficult situations. With increasing focal length and low aperture numbers, the depth of field gets very thin. It is then real challenging to keep for instance a moving subject in focus. The Smart Ranger 2 from Qinematiq can be a great help (not only) for such situations. Qinematiq Smart Ranger 2 Smart Ranger 2 is a dual distance measurement tool.
