  9. I have myself a rig now that handles any camera package I am likely to see, but until I sell my lighter rig (which I will use for weddings) I do not have the funds to furnish a car yet. To this end, I am considering an idea to get me through this for the immediate to relatively near future: partner myself with a focus puller with a car and a similar level of experience, market ourselves as a team in the low budget market with a 50/50 split. I am hoping that as an added advantage the increasing number of shows we do together would develop chemistry which would be especially important for live/live-to-tape shows. Thoughts?
  10. My apologies, I should have just looked in the table of contents of your book because most of this is spelled out there. Should have checked before I asked. The "start warm and keep running" is a consideration I will have to make in the future. Thanks Jerry!
  11. I took my EFP out for its fist shake down yesterday. It was -15 Celsius (5 Fahrenheit) outside. I turned on the monitor (Transvideo IIIa Ultrabrite) and after a few seconds of wild voltage read outs it gave me a fleeting "low voltage" and died. I tried a different battery, no luck. Tried one that had been kept warm all day, no luck. My assistant suggested that perhaps the AB Hytron 120 NiMH I was using was old and a bad chemistry for the cold. I tried two different sets of Dionic 90s and they fared no better despite being newer. None of the batteries read as being empty when it was first tried, and the Bartech I powered off the sled worked fine all day and night. Thankfully I was doing most of the day in Don Juan and the camera's on board monitor was visible. I tried the monitor again today at room temperature and once it warmed up it worked flawlessly. Is there anything I can do to ensure my gear will keep working in extreme cold?
