Hi all, anyone know if there's someone that repairs these transmitters?

Monster Remotes can't do it and I don't think Preston can either.

Thanks much!

Speaking just in safety terms, there is no excuse to make a movie if there are people in need of immediate help. I'm not sure if this point was misrepresented in translation, but safety is always number, one as any professional crew can attest to.

Now that Preston is no longer repairing many of their products can anyone suggest and give feedback on the best places to get that equipment serviced?

MDR 2, MDR 1, handsets, etc.

Cramped Attic is one, but I'd love to not have to ship to Canada.

I guess he used the cheap rubber bands.

If you hook a garage door to that thing you could close it in front of you when someone you didn't want to talk to walked up. That seems like the best use for it IMO.

Did you see this one? http://www.steadicamforum.com/index.php?showtopic=23660&do=findComment&comment=115433

Not sure if the 2 is rated to 56lbs....

Here's a good SD transmitter for sale. http://www.steadicamforum.com/index.php?showtopic=23577

There are some great deals on Preston kits if you're patient. 7K - 10K can get you an older, full FI+Z Preston with preston motors if you have the time to wait. I have a full system with one motor I'm thinking of selling for 4K, so they are out there, just check for them regularly. You won't be sorry if you get a Preston. I would say that's one thing you can get and not feel like you've upgraded too quickly. It's also something that can be rented out for regular camera builds as well as steadicam.

Who gave this guy a job on screen at NAB anyway?

The main question here is: what do we get from watching the butt of a pizza guy walking up a set of stairs and then watching a bad lock off of a guy eating food?

This seems to fit on this thread nicely.

Some directors even own and operate steadicam.
