  • hi there,

    I can't seem to find the Energizer batter pack on their website?

  • @stryfertime I'm not sure if they use them anymore. I use Tekkeon battery packs now and love them.

  • I found this to be quite helpful. I am working on a proposal of about $65,000 which includes alot of material but didn't involve some of this equipment. I am interested in the shoulder mount and Matte Box which can fit in the proposal. Thanks for the help

  • Thanks. I've built a brand new rig since last year, and I plan on doing a new video on upgrading rigs. Hopefully it'll be up in the next week.

  • Best rig I've seen yet. But, hows about some close-ups dude?

  • Check out my blog for some close up pictures.

  • how big is the HV30 lents on the camera?

    would most matte box

    feet? or a specific one

  • waths attach to the matte box

    before the camera?

  • were do you buy the microphone holder?

    or the mic adapapter

  • WOW this was great

    

  • Isn't it awkward to have to take one hand off the bar things and focus? I would think that IT'd get off balance. I dont have a shoulder rig, but i want one. IDK weather to get a one hand one since I want to focus...

    HELP ME PEOPLE

    seriously, I am ordering soon...

  • Thats awesome

  • so how does all this attach or work through the small camera? i have a Sony HDR cx500v soon to be 770v how would i attach all this? through the hot shoe? or the LANC port? or..? ill research for now :-P but hoping for a quick answer from you :)

  • WOW! Awesome, I'm rigging my camera right now, mainly improving the lens.

  • Why would you need a mattebox to attach filters when your photo lens has a thread to attach filters?
