Okay... the rig is missing little odds and ends like a donut for eg... I simply just filmed the rig when I had time.

Video cameras are shit, the 7D has an 'organic texture' that I personally prefer over ANY video camera out there. Personal choice.

[DPAMULTIMEDIA]

why not by a video camera?

[ChrisGrantHarvey]

@DPAMULTIMEDIA current video cameras suck in my opinion. The 7D has a n organic texture I like over other sensors.

Monitor can cost as low as $44 and doesn't need to be HD. FOllow focus is for noobs. Barn doors are fine but I don't see why this rig for $2-3000 is worth it. It doesn't have any stabilization that comes close to a tiffen steadicam and isn't better (if at all) than a home made shoulder rig. I just don't friggin get it.

[ChrisGrantHarvey]

@ZeroSynth You do know a handheld shoulder rig is a different piece of film gear to a Steadicam...? The reason for a rig like this on HDSLR's is to remove the "wobble" you get with just hand holding the camera body itself.

[bouchandre]

I have the exact same camera/lens configuration as you. But The 50mm isn't really wide, don't you think?

[ChrisGrantHarvey]

@bouchandre not really.

[stweed500]

Technically you want to put a seal on the matte box, no? That way it is actually blocking out the flare, otherwise you can just take those barn doors off of it because they aren't really doing anything...

[directedbydavid]

why would anyone ever need a matt box other than to try and look cool! omg who uses matts?? people used those like 30 years ago with film cameras so you could actually "matt" the film to shoot 1:85 or whatever. and filter holder? filter it in post

[vanhakaveri]

@ZeroSynth Follow focus is for noobs. Same if you say that "noobs shoot in 5k"

[RDWGstudios]

So you have a camera like that, and you use windows live Movie Maker?

[antiques4sale]

your link doesn't go anywhere,do you have another or the correct address?also can you get a rig for the T3i ?

[RMACMEDIAPRODUCTIONS]

This thing looks like a beast. How anyone can compare that to a steadicam is sorta like...."really"?

[princeanthony1010]

How much is all this equipment?

[TheLukeSchiltz]

@ZeroSynth "Follow focus is for noobs"

Yep, that's about where I stopped taking your comment seriously.

[TheLukeSchiltz]

@DPAMULTIMEDIA Canon's have more lenses available and can be much cheaper on both the entry level and advanced scale.

[Skatrav]

@ChrisGrantHarvey True that.
