Canon 5D Mark II Rigs at Red Rock Micro

Brian Valente of Red Rock Micro is kind enough to give a demo of various Canon D-SLR rigs at the NAB 2009 show. Some cinematographers and videographers are starting to see the Canon as a solid B camera for video. Brought to you by http://www.studiodaily.com

looks easy to handle if you got 4 hands

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.

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.

@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.

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.

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

[tinydancer1019]

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

@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...
