Canon 5D Mark II Rigs at Red Rock Micro

[CAMer0nxx]

The only way this thing makes the 5d into a cinema camera is by looks. All they are doing is making a DSLR look like a top notch professional camera. So if you have money to blow, why not. But I would never put one of these rigs at priority.

[entouchgraphics]

@CAMer0nxx If that is your thinking you are incredibly mistaken.

1. Matte Boxes are NEEDED for any type of film work so you can save money on ND and other fiters.

2. You have never filmed with an hdslr is that is what you are thinking, these rigs make the camera like an ENG camera and much more stable.

3. Red Rock gear is very expensive and I agree that it is WAY over priced....

But Camera rigs with these HDSLR ARE ALWAYS a priority.

[CAMer0nxx]

I actually own a Canon t3i that I use to film at my school. What I am trying to say is that, A red rock rig is never needed. You can build one of these things on your own if you get creative enough, sure, a mattebox is another story, but you don't NEED a mattebox to make a film.

[MichaelJordon1]

Try Genus, their equipment is fantastic quality until restock and still at a reasonable price compared to Zacuto

[danglingairfreshners]

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahah

How much does all this shit cost?

[tinydancer1019]

I don't trust anyone who pretends to be a video equipment pro but produces a video with such terrible sound quality.

[xrey2000]

HAHAHAHA... I just check the price for all these extras for the rig, if you are going to pay this much to convert your SLR to a video cam may as well just go buy yourself a pro video camera.

[alanbstard4]

this is ridiculous, The first bit was fine with the eyepiece, but really, you are better off with a dedicated vid camera where you get proper audio and shoulder mounted

I love my full frame 5D. However, it is not a movie camera

[carissawilsongsl]

@mrct50 it looks like that gap regarding what is considered semi professional and pro is small today. d7000 is all many of us need. go to... freedslr . com remove spaces and take a way to bring home a Brand New Nikon D7000

[neirad537]

Why is your company name Red Rock but your color is blue?

[neirad537]

Why your name your company Red Rock but blue is your color?

[tomcatboy]

Love it. Looks like it's made out of old bicycle parts!

[bouchandre]

we are gonna show you some jizz-L-R...

[SpeckyNation]

60D and some handle bars. Zoooooooooooooooom!

[27darkstalker]

@ikickedapanda well honestly i woudnt say ive seen it but i didnt said that you cant zoom in what im saying zoom ins are like made to look like an oldschool film example quentin tarantino or robert rodriguez wch really are good what im saying generally you dont unless you want it to be stylized and of course it boils down to intention of the shot ..so its a shot seldom use for a straight linear narrative or a straght forwrd story telling :) cause dolly ins after all works better

[asdf272]

still cant handle the reds quality

[shutterspeedfilms]

I wanna Rob this muthafuka !

[xpez]

so basically if you wanted to shoot 6 different ways in one take you could do it!!!

[lp22hot]

amazing technology!!!!

[mikongo]

Was this ad shot on their rigs? I wasn't impressed- in the beginning there was a particularly nasty wobble.

[yusingsong]

First i very surprise with this canon 5D.....canon create a new future ....very AMAZING VERY2 GREAT CAMERA....FANTASTIC....SUCCESS TO CANON 5D.....

GREAT CAMERA

[TheRoyalStampede]

theres no point in putting filters in the matt box if your going to be taking it off all the time, theres no need for it fukn stupid

[LaDolceLingua]

I see allot of guys filming with DSLR's - is it better quality than a XH-A1s?

[MeneRocks]

@LaDolceLingua Alot better. It has a much faster work flow, shoots 24fps, 25fps, 30fps @ 1080p also 50fps and 60fps @ 720p. Also it puts most actual professional camcorders to shame in low light settings. The XhA1 shoots ONLY interlaced footage and has a shitty mounted lens.

[MrUnseen]

That "turning wheel" is used for focusing, wright? So my Question: How do you zoom in and out with that camera devices all around?

[jeffhurdphotography]

@MrUnseen

usually you wont zoom while filiming.

[MrUnseen]

@jeffhurdphotography thats a thesis, I would like to hear stuff like: you don't zoom, because....

by the way,why shoudlnt I zoom in? When I want to show a detail between stuff on a table I dont dolly in or step forward with the camera (what also would be really shaking without a steadicam).

[27darkstalker]

@MrUnseen well in the film language and grammar zooming in destroys the suspension of disbelief in the audience..its like zooming in reminds them whoa "theres a camera movement" wich shoudnt be camera movements shoudnt be noticble in the standard form of film grammar

[BOSERNR1]

its kinda like rocket sience XD

[asigravitate27]

Transformers cameras in disguise

[epontbriand]

He said DSLR 2.0.

[TheJodoChannel]

@Mejaymz You don't know anything about video production do you.

[GianfrancoFirriolo]

@Mejaymz

Perfectly agree.

Maybe they'll make it when all the stores selling this stuff will be empty.

[alienmode]

@Mejaymz we should all have wood wagon wheels and churn our own butter

[Mejaymz]

@alienmode Or take wooden wagons replace all the wood with metal add an engine and call it "WOODEN WAGON 2.0".Cars are so outdated and expensive these days.

[asigravitate27]

@Mejaymz They kinda just did

[jaylamb218]

Awesome demostration.

[jamessfromtx]

freaking awesome

[E1VM]

Red Rock stuff costs more than the camera does, LOL! Its just a bunch of rods and set screws, LOL! 2 grand for that? Really? You could probably go to a paintball store and get what you need for a fraction of the price.

[mrlildoc]

And where i can get all that?

[007Fortis]

how much do they cost?

[AshKilamande]

wish i could afford this stuff lol

[Nyco11]

looks easy to handle if you got 4 hands

[cptmx]

@Nyco11 thats you and the AC!

[soulmman]

@Nyco11 and a million dollars.

[MaximumImageStudio]

@Nyco11 LOOOOOL :) good point.

[ColtSegura]

@Nyco11 well, if your using it to film usually the camera man has someone who focuses for him and holds the camera equipment for him...

[Horsti71]

You can buy it in Germany here: newi de

[jescsoluciones]

Where can i buy all that stuf?

Prices, Place where I can buy, all pleaseeeee

[jescsoluciones]

Where can i buy all that stuf?

Prices, Place where I can buy, all pleaseeeee

[samuraiking31]

Red Rock is cheaper than zacuto but they both are expensive as hell. If you just search a little more you can find this same rig for $2,000 dollars cheaper.

[DetroitRockCityMusic]

@samuraiking31 Where?

[magalphoto]

Nice video camera! Bad photo camera!

Reddish photos, bad JPG files, bad colors even in raw!

[feshberd]

@magalphoto I don't know anyone stupid enough to own a D-slr and shoot JPEG,

and of course the colours will look bad in raw, that's the point, there is no processing done to the picture.

I bought my first D-slr about 5 months ago, I feel like I'm taking crazy pills here.

[tman152]

@feshberd there are many reasons to shoot jpeg especially if you are shooting professionally. In sports shooting raw can mean filling up your buffer and missing that $10,000 shot. Also when you are at an event like the Olympics or Super bowl photo editors will buy and use whichever shot comes in first, If you shoot RAW the extra few minutes you spend processing your shots means they will go with someone else's shots which I assume could be the same for red carpet events like the Oscars or Cannes

[feshberd]

@tman152

You're absolutely right, I think my comment came off too radical.

I should have specified a little more, my bad.

I meant it in a very general way, as in the people who down right refuse to shoot raw for any situation.

I shoot raw almost exclusively, but I will switch to jpeg if I'm doing a time-lapse.

I personally have no need for burst, and have all the time I need for post processing.

but realize some people need this for their work, once again my bad.

[pabros]

Where can i buy all that stuf?

Can you provideo Brand Names and product #?

[Adnan248999]

These items are very expensive from RedRockMicro and if you're on a serious budger I'd consider the IndiFocus and Indislider products, check them out.

[geoffdoor]

we didn't see the external monitor switched on ...where does that plug into ???

[Adnan248999]

@geoffdoor I think it's the standard AV out port on the 5D a 2.5mm jack I think or similar though the output won't be high definition.

[geoffdoor]

OUCH not hi def ...its only because if you have a focus puller, basically he needs to see what the camera man is seeing ...is it not SDI ??? that would be better ....

[pabros]

I Thik it has HDMI output

[mkell21]

Now that the rebel T2i is out. We can all shoot Full HD (30 fps) movies for 1/4 the price of MK II. couple it with all this gear and your a filmaker.

[jet5832]

that was very good.......

I'm going to buy it next several month

[jet5832]

please let me know I want to buy the whole set of that...

[jet5832]

how much for the whole set at

2: 07 to 2: 38

[BloodBr0thers]

Nice.... We shot or Wed Series with the Canon 7d which is just as good and cheaper..

[nightstringers]

note all have something for follow focus what about a zoom

[MrSmallgaint]

what are the parts that are included in 0:46 min of this video? thx

[FeelTheMusic29]

Maaaan... are you trying to kill us?

[MrFrinkham]

@FeelTheMusic29

I think they really are. I nearly wet my pants.

[cutestalien]

nice rig. I would trade my ultra 16 for 5D M2

[gotMOTION]

Wow.... this guys got it made... jumping from one mount  to the other... cool... I wish I had all of those stuff and start making some commercials

[skateAR6]

"hundreds of dollars" my ass. Very revolutionary ideas but the cost sometimes gets ridiculous. Zacuto is the worst with prices.

[pacosaidso]

Wow that poor 5D is really hopping from one rig to another. If it gets any faster this could end up replacing second cameras.

[foxmediainc]

To expensive!!!! Lower the price buy a grand.

[samgod]

How does he control the camera with both hands holding the dual handle rig? Do these rigs accomodate zooming lenses that change lengths?

[fnfantabulous]

Chinese spy, sell system at walmart next year 200 dollar

[OSmediagroup]

Funny stuff! I wish! They always steal crap no one wants!

[usedtobealawyer]

@fnfantabulous $2000+ vs. $200...



[keridudouze]

@fnfantabulous hahaha !

[fanecatsini]

@fnfantabulous You were wrong Bro. The spy is actually the guy that shows up at the end of the video. I met him last night at K-mart; he was offering it to me for 150 and indeed he said it would work much better if I happened to have 4 hands. Or at least 3 of them.

[JOgarGR]

@fnfantabulous ahahahahaha fakin hilarious dude !

[AlienMatej]

@fnfantabulous 200 dollar? I want it! please give me a link through PM. Thanks!

[Olphus]

mine is bigger

[Rodamontes]

and the asian guy in the back complemented the whole video. hehe

[SheaDesign]

Now that I finally installed the new firmware I've been shooting a bunch! These are nice additions!

[y2kvictim]

Thank you for putting this up and thanks to that redrock guy. It helps me understand how their product works.

[fourthwall1]

This is funny to me. Whats the point of technology getting smaller, if the rigs needed to wield them are so huge.

I like the last setup with the duel handles. But the matte box and all that... you can find a smaller one online that will fit the same rails.

[jakedchapman]

HOLY CRAP!!! they make it seem like.. oooo hey.. check out all this cool stuff yo can have and switch from this to this to this....

but they forget to mention.. "BUTTT your gonna have to give me your liver, and ummm prlly if your a guy ur left or reight tesicle.. and if your a girl your left or right ovary.. "

lol.. still amazing stuff.. keep it up RED ROCK! :]

[Khemera777]

It's called good salesmanship by Brian V. there. If your rep isn't enthusiastic about the products, how do you expect your customers to be? Heavy and sometimes unnecessary but the cool redrock rig with my A1 makes me feel legit so that I can't quit... buying more of their stuff that is =] It is pretty cool actually. It gets you and your crew to care about the film and feel special working when you have serious looking equipment.

[jakedchapman]

no, i totallly understand what you mean... im saving up for the redrock micro M2 35mm adapter for my camera.. :]

[THGranite]

So how would you zoom with a 100-400L lens? Or zoom at all with all of that?

[directfilm]

with a LCS, (lens control system)
