Drive gear, tooth size M0.8, 46 teeth. Item #0500-0101. (this gear is required when using the flexible gear ring)

Drive gear for Canon XL/H1 standard lens and Sony HVR-S270(E) standard lens, this drive gear does not have the normal shaped teeth, but the teeth are shaped to grip directly into the ribbed rubber focus ring of the lens. Therefore there is no gear ring required. Item #0500-0200.
