yes it was, I have since added a keel w/7 kilos of weight slung below, that smooths it out. thanks for watching.

Hi Natelett, yes, I'll being shooting with this rig again soon, and I'll get some footage of the rig.

The rig has potential; and now with an LCD screen I can get a better idea of framing; may also try a live video feed to monitor. Thanks' again, Jimmy~

the boots? well I took them in for a slight design mod ie: additional stiching, but with that said; they are really great boots, and they look n' fit great too!

The camera rig had it's first test in the Mojave yesterday.

The overall length of the sled has since been reduced as the front end was "in" on the wide angle setting. Now we are filming right off the "bow of the boat".

Initial footage looks good and the rig has huge potential.

I'll be out on location again very soon for further testing.

Thanks.

Thank's very much! Since this video was taken, we have upgraded to a much improved base plate bearing, improved control arm and lever and the rig now get's almost 180 degrees in pan w/smooth operation. We will begin testing very soon. Thank's again. Jimmy.

nice idea, but camera movement might be a bit jerky in practice

[natelett]

Very cool! Can we see a video of your upgraded version?
