  1. Anybody know what is the fuse inside the AB 2702 Quad charger? Soldering gun at the ready ;) Thanks
  2. I re cell we mine for $50 and they work great!
  3. Richard I have a upgraded efp if you're interested?
  4. Hope this is not a fraudulent advert? Can you post photos here and feel is where you purchased it from?
  5. Derrick If the low mode bracket isn't sold then I'm interested.
  6. Peter Hoare? Is he the "inventor" of the system?
  7. I managed to check out the bolt at IBC but to be honest it was difficult TO gauge an opinion with regard to its performance. The very small, compact kit was on display but It was not possible to test it further. Another notable wireless system was the IDX CW 1. Even smaller than the Bolt but with a range of 30 metres and a price of approximately 1300 euros!
  8. I shall definitely visit this stand at IBC and will check it out.
  9. Can somebody tell me the actual weight of the arm with grey canisters? cheers
  10. I have spoken and met Curt a few times and I have nothing but praise for him. He is a "down to earth" operator and innovator who has invested all his time and energy adapting steadicam for the benefit of all operators. Furthermore his support (and Sachtler) is second to non, twice last month I have had exceptional service from the otherside of the world. I am an Artemis owner for 6 years now when I was looking for a HD/SDI sled, a wise decision at the time as only recently other manufacturers are offering this option.
  11. Hi Bo Cool to have one of the World Cup operators on board! It has been brought to my attention by another operator, that some of you guys got a local rig. It sounded plausible to me, due to some missing equipment such as the zoom control. Even though I have already seen some "zoom work" done by the operator. How many operators are working on that event? Henry Hi Henry, There was a situation last year during the Confederations Cup when a local rig was hired because of a theft, however I have not heard anything recently from the 12 World Cup operators that they have had to hire a rig. There are many steadicams here with Foreign Broadcasters, ESPN alone have 3 so maybe one of them hired locally? Most match operators have bought spares, there is also a complete rig available from HBS and a complete rig for Artemis Owners provided by Telemedia (Sachtler dealer) in the event of any mishaps. At this point having experienced a malfunction myself, I would like to mention my sincere thanks to Curt Schaller from Camera Dynamics (Artemis rig), who has provided me with unbelievable swift support and replacements within days. Great to know that no matter where you are in the world, back up is just around the corner. Bo
  12. Hi Henry I am currently working on this event. Local broadcast stations are not involved with the main game coverage. HBS from France are covering this event as Host Broadcaster and are using 2 crews from France, Germany and the UK. All the steadi ops have provided their own kit including follow focus. I together with 4 other ops are using Sachtler rigs, there are also some EFP and MKV rigs being used. Bo
  13. Hi Alfeo, Some of the operators do not have zoom remotes on their gimbals and choose to use wide angle lenses, as a result they have to be a few inches away from the subject in order to fill the frame, this is even more evident during the team anthems where there is a line of mascots in front of the players.
  14. Tim, Just want to pass on my compliments to a great job. I believe you have done Eurovision for a number of years now and yet you still manage to pull something original out of the bag. Well done!
  15. I have an upgraded efp rig for sale; Alfred Chrosziel green screen monitor (4000 nits) with frame line generator. Ted Churchill Monitor Bracket, Carbon post, PRO GIMBAL, internal F.F. wiring to place receiver at the bottom of sled, fore and aft battery stage with 2 anton B plates. IIIa heavy spring arm, IIIa vest only, hard and soft cases, various cables and brackets including spare top stage and C stand, zoom controllers. anton bauer propacs included also as condition unknown. Looking for 13,000 euros. (plus shipping if not collected) more photos available on request steadi-bo90@ntlworld.com
  16. I have no use for this Ultra2 vest and have worn it for 10 minutes only. Still looks brand new. Soft bag also included. 3500 euros plus shipping.
  17. Johan, is it you operating in Moscow, eurovision 2009, especially on the sedgway?
  18. Mike, I still have my mint condition Ultra2 vest available if you're interested. Cheers Bo
  19. Hi Rob, Have you got the Transvideo 6.5 HDSDI 1000 nits monitor? Bo
  20. 6.5? HD-SDI? 1000+ NITS? NAB 2008? Here we go again! My biggest regret back in 2006 was not taking up the loaner offer from Boland, a 8.4 inch HD-SDI untill the 6.5 was ready. Wonder if they'd still let me use it 2 years on?!
  21. I've been searching for such a screwdriver for over ten years!! How happy I was when I realised Panavision- London UK were selling them for around £8 :lol:
  22. Stephen, May I also join fellow forum members and wish you all the best in your new chosen career, I hope it brings you as much joy and satisfaction as the steadicam operating did!
