At 0:33 what light are you using, is it an opteka light, does opteka sell internationaly to the UK and do they still make the Deluxe Skater Pack? Thanks in advance!
@theskatingguitarist If your using a flip to film, then you probably don't need a handle.. Since they dont have the threads for fisheyes and you can only really film long lens.
I bought an Opteka to use with my Canon 7D and the piece of $h!t doesn't even have enough clearance so I can hold it... not to mention its flimsy, and the cheap foam handle moves when you hold it !!!!! Opteka sucks - very upset with my purchase
hummm...dude can i ask u something....what camcorder is this you are recording wid??? coz i don't think even the canon Vixia HV40/30 can perform this good what cam is it??i know its a Canon tape based model and not even my JVC GZ HM400 can make this thing soo damn clear tell me plz......and btw....the fish eye lens what its the lens it self thread coz if its smaller then 46mm then plz tell me coz i wanna attach this lens to my HM400
As long as your camera doesn't have a tripod mount in the bottom of it this handle will fit all cameras. Prolly even a rebel but why would you want that lol
if i used a hv40 with a opteka (titanium?) fisheye lens, with a RODE external michrophone attached to the top of the xgrip, do you think you will be able to see the mic in my footage?
I'm a beginning action sports photographer and I'm still looking for a lens for my Canon Legria HF200. I don't know that much about fisheyes/wide angle lenses, so I have a question for you guys. Which wide angle lens/fisheye would be the best for my camera? And do I need an adapter or something like that?
If you add some wright to the bottom of the handle you can get rid of the small shake in 30p mode. It is because the cam and handle are so light. Add about 5 lbs of weight somehow and it will stable the cam for filming lines. The big canon battery will help. I recommend heavy washers glued on the handle from the hardware store. It's a perfect camera just a little to light... Also a handle made from steel works also.
i got this for XMAS and i love it. fits great with my light on the hotshoe, and works well with your 37mm ultra fisheye :] Thanks for making an awesome product
my friend bought the opteka deluxe skaters package off amazon and it shipped with everything but the lens. i just ordered one today. what should i do if mine is missing something
I got the Skaters Package from Amazon, and I love it. But the only thing I have a problem with is I can see the tip of the top part of the handle. Like, where the light goes. I have the Opteka .3x Platinum Ultr Fisheye and I have my camera moves up as much as it can go, but you can still see it. Any suggestions?
Very good demo! Thanks :)
