    Hi julian

     

    I think use a Hytron 140 and a Dionic 90 is a lot of weight for a P2 camera.

    I feel more comfortable the balence using the gimbal near to top stage, and using 2 batteries you have to go down with the gimbal.

    On the video we can see your steps walking.

    Maybe you adjusted with more power of necessary the arm?

    Just my 2 cent.

    Best to all,

    Hi Matteo

     

    Usually, when I work with kids, I use the J bracket in regular mode.

    (The same when the scene is about somebody walking and after taking a chair)

    I found it very comfortable and quickly instead go to low mode.

  8. Sony EX1 video outputs?

    Hi Jerry

     

    I used a lot the EX1 camera. As Brian said, you have to enter to the menu to get composite video.

    (Take care with the cable because the weight of the connector can bent down and dammage the conector of the camera)

    Check the "steadyshot" of the camera. Set it off. and if you have a Pro, I think you need a Practice cage.

  10. Low mode for ARRI 435

    in Brackets/Widgets

    Posted

    Hi everybody,

    In my area, (China and Hong Kong), there are just a few 435 steadimag can rental (maybe just have two in the whole country...). Then I talked with Markus in Baer-Bel, then he help me to modify a new version of low mode cage which can fit a 435 (with viewfinder and normal magazine) Since I still have no time to test it with a 435, but I think it can do it. Based on the measurement, I can put a 435 on it. haha

     

     

    Hi Julian

     

    I have CP cage and Baer Bel cage for low mode.

    With the CP cage, I worked with 435 normal magazines and viewfinder, and the camera fit ok.

    When the AC needs to change magazine, is a little bit dificult, but the camera fit and you can work.

    I never tried with the baer Bel cage and 435, but I think when the AC need change the mag, the door can touch the telescopic column at sides. Check it before...

    Best to all,

    Ladies and Gents,

    I recently acquired a BENZ focus system along with a rig package I purchased. I was wondering if there is anyone out there that uses this as there primary focus system. All searches only come up with people talking about why this guy was an ........... I just wanted to know if anyone uses one or might have a repair manual or something. Any insight will be helpful.

    Thanks,

    Nick Deeg

    Hi Ben

     

    Is March again, and nowaday I have 5 years waiting you to send my Benz 5000 Follow Focus that I paid you.

    in your last e-mail, you told me:

    -"take it easy Gus, Is just wait the equipment be anodized"

    Where did you send the equipment to anodize?

    I think the guy who is anodizing it is a little bit slowly...

    hey gus

    watched the video clip nice finish actually that was a great match

    alot going on,and i am glad to see that i'm not alone as well,

    i've been with relson gracie for a little over 15 years now

    and i think it is the best cross training for steadicam ops and almost anything else you do

    but with all said great job,and mike's got a great idea

    we can do a steadicam op tourney that would be a blast

    and i know it would suck cause you guys would have to come to hawaii to do the tourney lol

    then we'll have a steadicam surfing contest at pipeline to that follow up hehe

     

    best to all

     

     

    15 years training with Relson!! Mark, you are a dangerous man...

    I have a freind training in Hawai, Paula Daian. She is blue belt.

    Maybe you know her. If not, see her.

    http://pauladaian.com/

    She is model and also windsurf professor over there.

    Maybe we can invite her to our Hawaian JiuJitsu tournament ;)

     

    My weight division is 97 kg (213 L) and yes, I always train JJ fighting from my guard.

    Take care of my triangle choke guys.

    See you on the tatami.

    Best to all, and Armando: Go on!

    I train Jiu Jitsu & Judo since 10 years.

    You´ll forget all your stress when somebody is on top of you looking for a choke for you...

    If you want, I can send you info of some Academies in Barcelona, Alicante or Madrid where I trained.

     

    here a video.Enjoy it:

     

     

    I won the NAGA (North American Grappling Association) last year with a head and arm triangle (the tecnique used at 1:53 of the YouTube video.

     

     

    Wow, didn't know so many Steadicam Ops were into BJJ. I won two 2nd place medals at NAGA for Gi and no-Gi. It was fun! Unfortunately, I got owned at the Gracie Invitational last year. Trying to work some flying triangles and arm-bars though, figure that's the last thing anyone expects these days.

     

    So, Amando you'd love Jiu Jitsu for its art, plus I can only see it helping as far as operating goes (as long as you know when to TAP) haha.

    Amazing.

    Im not alone. Im surprise other Steadicam operators are training BJJ.

    After training during 10 years, Im brown belt under Mario Sukata here in Argentina.

    Next july I hope go to Brazil to fight the Mundial Master.

    Mike, The choke is called "kesagatame" and usually I train it from mounted position or guard position.

    if you mistake the choke, you can take the back

     

    Here is a video of 2002 fighting a Submission cup.

    Im in a red tshirt that master Carlson Gracie give me to me in 2001.

     

    best to all and take care of knee locks!
