Hi, I would like to know if you have tried a 35 mm rig "redrock or letus" on the blackhawk. If not, just how you liked the blackhawk in general. Not having a lot of luck finding reviews on it

I have tried the letus on the panasonic p2 with the blackhawk. I do like the blackhawk stabilizer. Now if I had $40,000 I would definitely have a steadicam instead. : )

How was the Black Hawk to work with? I'm in the market for a stabilizer and this seems to be the best route so far aside from the Steadicam Flyer LE

@Concept2Motion. I enjoy the blackhawk stabilizer. Like any steadi rig it takes a long time to master it. Ive been using mine for over 3 years now and still feel I could be a lot better.

Cool. Ur shooting a music video? Was it ur idea to use the forklift?

[jmclane]

actually the old man who owns this building and the forklift suggested lifting the car hummer up, so I stepped in and told the director to lift me up instead. I've seen it done before on real production lifts, so wanted to try it on this.
