  1. Hey Mark,

     

    It was more like ... if I upgrade to another monitor that has a XLR or LEMO connector, where will I be able to draw that power from? I'm guessing I'll have to make a new cable drawing with power from the base, or something that adapts from the cable they supply with the rig?

     

    I'm wondering if they have a different cable harness for the HD version of the Zephyr ... time for a phone call?

  2. Read a post on Vincent LaForet's blog about three new monitors that Marshall is releasing for NAB. I've been thinking about buying a Steadicam Zephyr (SD version) and upgrading the monitor, but I also wanted a monitor that I could use for other non-Steadi shooting. These new "modular" monitors will make the purchasing decision much easier. (The 7" is quite bright @ 800 nits!)

  3. Do you have a picture of the 5D on your rig? That's going to be my main camera, along with the RR Cinema Bundle. I'd love to see what it looks like.

     

    Andrew,

     

    Haven't really looked into that. The only camera I have flown with iris rods so far is a Canon 5D and we used a Redrock Micro baseplate and extended rods, so that we could mount an A/B Hytron battery on a plate behind the camera for extra mass up top (I also used my 6.5lbs Janice Arthur weight plate and a Manfrotto QR).

     

    So, I don't know of bolt-on solution to the rods deal, but I feel like someone must have that answer...when I bought my used Flyer the wedgeplate was marked on the front underside with the words "Letus rods" in china marker by the previous owner. So, it wouldn't surprise me if the existing hole pattern on the wedgeplate is designed to match with some existing bracketry.

     

    Perhaps the folks at Tiffen know.

  4. Thanks for the reply! (and thanks for your pictures.)

     

    The thing I'm concerned about is the cable that supplies video & power to the SD monitor. Would I need to get another cable specifically designed to carry the HD-SDI and power to the monitor? Or do I use the cable supplied (for SD) and take the power, and add a cable for the HD signal? (Hope this makes sense.)

  5. Hi Guys,

     

    I'm in the market for a Zephyr, but I really don't know what's the difference between the SD and HD models ... aside from the monitor and the $3,000 price difference. The monitor looks like a Marshall LCD, but can't confirm the specs.

     

    I'm thinking about getting the SD version and then upgrading the monitor to the Marshall 6.5" ST series LCD. I'm wondering if there is a dedicated power & HDSDI coming out of the base?
