Hi all

I realise this may sound too simple but I'm in need of a 10" x 5/8" anodized post for a J-bracket I'm assembling, I already have the dog bone and the 4" post. The machinist here in Australia would have to charge $55 for the anodizing alone on top of his cost for doing a one-off for me. If anyone has a spare they are willing to sell and post to me, I would be very grateful. I can pay via Paypal and I'm in no big rush for it so when it's convenient to post to me is fine.

Thanks for looking and all.

Cheers

Norbert

Hi all

If anyone has a J-bracket that fits the Glidecam Gold, please PM me with a price including postage to Australia and your Paypal account name. No worries.

Cheers

Norbert

Marell - MPC1426

The "On Rig" Converter for 14V Batteries

Designed specifically for 12-14V body mounted camera stabilization operators that need to film using the modern high performance camera systems that require 26V or more to operate properly. This unit allows the powering of any standard 24V camera (including the ARRI 435 etc) and has enough in reserve to allow high film speed and cold starting with fresh batteries.

Attractively packaged, the MPC1426 has a status indicator that allows monitoring of Battery and converter operation, and also shows error conditions,

should a cable go faulty, or the battery is flat.

Please note that the MPC1426 provides a regulated 26V supply to the Camera, which is ground referenced.

EFP vest in pretty good condition - $1500AUD + shipping

PM me if you have any questions

Cheers

Still available.

Dropping the asking price to $5,500.00 and I'll throw in the Marell 14 to 26v power booster - what a deal, wow!

Hi Louis

Good find, gawd I wish I was that match fit. Interesting hand position on the post though?

Selling my Cinema Products Master Series - mod#9MS900. It's the Broadcast model and I have added a second AB battery mount at the front of the bottom stage for extra power and better balance for heavier cameras.

Instead of the CRT green screen, it has a Glidecam L7-PRO 7" monitor. I've added a BNC video line so you can run an HD-SDI camera output between top and bottom stages. I am also including a Panasonic 7" backup monitor as part of the package.

Looking for $6000AUD or make me an offer.

I also have available:

- EFP vest

- Marell 12v to 24v power booster module

If you have any questions please ask.

Included items:

- Steadicam Master Series Broadcast sled with 2 x dovetail plates and battery voltage monitor

- Lemo to XLR4 camera power cable

- Docking bracket

- 7" LCD Glidecam L7-PRO monitor

- Travel case

- J-bracket for low mode

- Panasonic 7" LCD monitor (as backup)

PLEASE NOTE: C-Stand is not included.

The Master Series Broadcast Steadicam is as affordable as it is invaluable, and is the perfect tool for all commercial video production.

The Broadcast boasts all the revolutionary elements that has made the Master Series an indispensable tool in the world of production, yet is designed to be more affordable for the independent Steadicam owner/operator. The sled is comprised of lightweight modular components that allow for fast and easy field replacement. The internal video system has adjustable frame lines for safe shooting and pivots for optimum viewing while constantly maintaining dynamic balance. Fine-tuning this Steadicam - whether at the stage, sled, gimbal or arm - can be done effortlessly using the Master Series' ingenious no-tools adjustments. Plus, Broadcast components may be upgraded and are compatible with the Master Series Film and EDTV Systems.

Master Broadcast Sled Features:

Sled: No-tools adjustments Modular components for field replacement. Monitor pivot

maintains dynamic balance. Precision leadscrew stage drives.

Centre of Gravity Gimbal: Control at system centre of gravity No-tools coarse/fine

adjustment Can be adjusted while fully loaded.

Still for SALE!

Too bad I didn't know you had this. I have the Hills Gorelock 1 / Balance dock and just ordered 2 new 1.5" rings from Jerry to replace the 1.58 of my Master sled. I would have bought it all so i could moungt the Gorelock in my vehicle for when moving locations.

I guess I should have asked - :rolleyes:

Cheers

Hi all, I've just bought a sled that has 12-24v capability so don't need this power up-converter anymore. I'd bought it used some time ago but haven't even used it myself, it looks so clean I'm sure it hasn't seen much service. It's about $800USD new and I'm looking for $400USD + shipping to where ever you are.

Transvideo Monitor Mounting Rod System for Master Series

The ultimate monitor support.

This was on my Master Broadcast and held either a Transvideo Cinemonitor IIIa or a Boland 8'4 HD, both with Transvideo mount slider attached. Original cost was about $1100AUD a few years ago so looking for $500USD + shipping now.

NOTE: The only real change I can see is that the new version's monitor mount swivel plate is flat so you don't need to spend extra money for a slider. It's easy enough to have the channel walls machined off this one if you want.

Check Transvideo for more info at: https://transvideo.eu/node/446

The chest plate on my Ultra 2 vest, namely the metal section that slides to adjust the length of the vest, squeaks and creaks when it's under load. If I clean it with a light soap and water, the creaking stops, but is back after a few days. Should I get some type of lubricant to stop the creaking for longer durations?

 

 

Hi Michael,

 

Give me a call so we can discuss this if you have a moment.

 

Best,

Hi Peter

Just wondering why you just can't answer the question on the forum for all to benefit by instead of asking for a phone call ..... is it a secret that would compromise national security?:D

Inquiring minds want to know.

Thanks

Norbert

Still available and now looking for $1200USD to help defray the cost of the used 3A I just bought

Thanx

Hugo, I was absolutely shocked to hear this very sad news.

May it make your sorrow

Easier for you to bear

Knowing there are others

Who understand and care.

with our sincerest condolences.

Norbert & Diana

I own one. The internal battery is good for about 2 hours. No need for a cradle, just velcro the unit to rig, it's 100% Solid State so it needs no special handling

Hi Eric

Do you use this for recording client material from the camera or is it only for your use. I'm just a bit concerned that there is no LCD screen for any sort of confidence viewing either during or after recording. I'd be happy to get your opinion on this before I spend the money.

Thanx

Norbert

Sold

Hi Osvaldo

I have the flu, slept in and missed the end of the auction so if for some reason the ebay buyer doesn't pay, let me know as I was going to make a bid as well.

Cheers

Norbert

Hi Jens

At that price I'm assuming they are for re-cell only, is that right?

Cheers

Hi Shawn

I have heard rumours that Birger Engineering is developing an EOS adaptor for the NEX-FS100 after the one for the Panasonic AF-100. This would allow you to use both Canon EF and EF-S lenses with lens iris control through the camera but at the moment it's a waiting game till it's available, especially good for me as I have a set of L series f2.8 lenses going to waste.

Hoping that it won't be too long now and that the price will be approx the same as the Panasonic version which I think is about $800.

Best of luck in the meantime.

Norbert

Hi all

I'm looking for a new home for this EFP which I bought recently but am now looking to upgrade to a Master vest. It's in good condition. Any questions, just ask.

Asking $1500USD or make an offer.

Cheers

Norbert

Hi

I have a Transvideo Cinemonitor IIIA SB for sale with Transvideo hood. It is in pretty good nick as the pics show.

Please PM if interested or if you have any questions just ask.

Looking for $1200AUD or best offer in the next while, as I'm trying to fund a Sony NEX-FS100 purchase.

I will accept international wire transfer or Paypal as long as any fees are yours to pay, you can arrange your own shipping or I can send it via registered insured post.

Cheers

Norbert

It was both John P and Dave Eastwood

 

Dave uses a lightweight double headset out if the back of the camera and I think John uses a modified double from Bose. Maybe he'll chime in

Hi Guys

Just my two cents, but Dick Clark aviation headsets have great ambient noise attenuation and are worth a look. They really don't take a lot of tech know how to convert for comms use.

Thanks

Hi Danny

I have a 3A copy Progear vest from Denmark that has seen little service over the past 5 years and is in relatively good condition. Here's a couple of pics. PM me if interested.

Hi Afton

I love my Master Series Broadcast and the only thing I have issues with is the FLG. It has a wonky PCB and in order to give me a full range of adjustments, I've had to wedge a small block of perspex between an IC mount and another component which then bends the board just the right amount to work. I've had a Marell FLG board sitting on the shelf and would love to rework the innards to make a neat package like yours, any chance of getting some info/diaghrams on what you did?

Cheers

Found the pics through a friend for your viewing pleasure and amazement since the rig and pics have been taken off ebay now.

Cheers

Norbert

Hi

I saw this and after stopping LMAO and picking myself off the floor, I couldn't help but think...maybe he's on to something!

Check this ebay listing: http://cgi.ebay.com....=item4cf62e32fb

As weird as it may seem, has anybody ever tried this reverse vest technique?

Cheers
