Never and I do mean never use the LCD.  The TB-6 is simply too good.  LCD is great to carry with me though - just in case.

Well to be fair, have you ever actually pulled the LCD out and decided to use it to really try out the difference? Or are you so generally happy with the TB-6 and afraid of having a problem with the LCD on a paying client job that you've simply been unwilling to give it a chance? Something to think about although it does split the argument both ways--that TB-6 does work great.

I tend to Agree with Alec, I have used both and the TB-6 is too good not to use. LCD's still have a long way to go before they are bright enough, reject sunlight well enough and have a large enough viewing angle before they displace CRTs.

Its AC only...

No it's not, it runs on 6 volts. very simple to power either from a sony camcorder battery or a 7806 voltage reg and a rig battery.

I was told that you can go to the labor board and request there assistance... After 60 days the employer can be charged the full amount owed to the employee per day every day until you receive a check...

That only goes for your taxable hourly rate, NOT your rental.

Still no explanation as to what caused it. No wind and on level ground.

It's starting to look like an overload situation that basket is only rated for 500lbs and from what I heard it was loaded to 700lbs....

We won't talk about what else took a tumble the next night, but my knee is still a little tender....

No, I think we know who the most vocal bitcher is, Phil.  And we're all just as sick of it as always.

Don't make me dig up "THE PICTURE"

Yes, a provid arm and a provid post will fit to the sk2, regarding this photo. I mean, it sure looks like a telescope post.

Whoever is using that picture for publicity should at least plug the damn camera in....

I wish the forum would email us the actual post. I don't usually have time to go on the computer and sort through everything. I usually read them on my phone at work and respond either from work or when I get home.

I agree 1000%

It takes too much time to find the new post's.

Why did this change the last system worked damn well for all those years.

Have you tried the "View New Posts" link at the top of most pages?

Yes, but this takes you to the first (oldest) message in the topic, not the new ones.

This forum still need to be able to email us the post. This is a GIANT step backwards.

Is there a reason why things changed?

I know someone has alreay cried this out, but too bad for 2004 we have to take a giant step back for the sake of a new improved look.

 

now a moment of silence... for the steadicam forum digests.

 

RIP 2000-2003

I second that, this "New" Forum is a pain in the butt. The Forum now has become a LOT less useful now that e-mail is no longer an option.

Americans will not watch foreign films. Ancient fact.

You have got to be kidding me, Ever heard of "Lord of the Rings"? How about Harry Potter? Star Wars, The Matrix....

Shall I go on?

I like SAG's idea, for the oscars if it's not made in the states then it's a foriegn film.....
