  1. Hey man! Hope you're enjoying your day.
  2. Hi Rich, did you make a cameo as a doctor in the coffee shop in the "My Saving Grace" episode of Scrubs? Aired tonight 1/13 9p. Hope all is well, nick
  3. Thanks for the write up Charles, nice to know progress is being made in our favor. Emily looks thrilled in the last photo.
  4. Hey, they need something to go with my flashlight.
  5. Indeed! Everybody to Jim's place to celebrate!
  6. You already bought the $700 cable to make the ac's life easier...maybe it should be up to the ac to buy the bigger display? Not to mention the $7400 for the HU3!
  7. Also:cases4less.com They're in Torrance, I've always got my cases the next day.
  8. Sorry if I missed this, does the F23 use the same run cable as the F900? Thanks all, nick

  10. What's this now? Have you retired the logo Charles? Or is it on vacation with Jim in Mexico?
  11. Try Innerspace Cases, although they are a long way from you. http://www.innerspacecases.com/engravednameplateset.aspx

  13. We need Garrett to tell the rhino story. (I think it was a rhino.)
  14. very cool! count me in for version 2.
  15. There is a separate block that gives you 12V out of both back batts. My PROII only came with 3 blocks, I picked up the double 12v block and the matching power cable for some F900 work. Didn't think about not needing the Y cable with that block until Charles mentioned it.
  16. So after spending some time with the Red here is the configuration that worked for me. Camera came from Keslow. XCS plates top and bottom, two preston motors mounted off the top plate. AJA velcroed to the left side of the camera along with the Red LCD, allowed the assistants and the DP to keep an eye on things. Video out of the Element Technica breakout box. We chose to power the camera off of the Red batteries, the rig felt better for this show with the weight. Will pick up one of the Y cables for those times where you don't have the 90 seconds to wait for the reboot(and that's if it boots the first time) Got lucky and got a good set of batteries, the chargers were a lacking, we had to swap out three of them over the course of 8 weeks. Hung the battery off of the rods that were mounted to the Element Technica top plate. Comtek velcroed to the top of the battery mount for scratch track. ARRI Ultra primes, clipon matte box. We used the cards for 99% of the show, the drives only came out for some music performances. Oh yea, the drives hate helicopters. Only two batteries in the back position, PRO II sled. Not a bad camera overall for video, a little light for some stuff but doesn't beat you up at the end of the day. Just frustrating dealing with some of the waiting issues,boot time lack of image for the 90secs, we were using Build 15 and the director could see an image at the village about 30 seconds before I could at the camera. I'm told Build 16 solves this but not the boot time. nick
