  7. Any new impressions on EXOVEST?

    in Vests

    Posted

    I liked it a lot when I had the chance to test it out for a bit. I liked the added control I felt I gained by smoothing out the height of the socket block when moving slooooooow. I Did have some bruising from the lower pads but I think that could be easily remedied with a layer of different padding. but in the purchase phase it has proven to be a bit of a unicorn.

  9. Inovativ Vs Backstage

    Posted · Edited by dash adamson

    Steve,

    We have had our scout 42 for a while now and it is quite the work horse. Inovativ builds a hell of a product we often have several hundred pounds of stuff on it and it rolls far easier than any magliner I have ever used. It works so well in fact we ordered a Ranger for our dedicated steadicam cart. Expensive, YES but I looked at it this way... every time I am on set my gear is on a cart of some kind and I want what makes my life easy whether I am pushing it across the national mall or in a vacant buildings loading dock ramps it makes life (mine at least) easier than any other cart I have owned.

  10. Back mount vs. side mount

    Thanks for the input guys, really helpful. Going to do a bit more research and try and find an Exo that I can demo. Demoing an action in the near future.

     

    I am in kinda the same boat Danny, I am also looking to move out of my current vest do to some discomfort and wanting to operate longer with less fatigue. I have settled on either the EXO or PRO but at this point I have not had much response form Tiffen with wanting to take my money..... so its looking like I may be in a PRO suit.

  13. Steadicam - Basketball?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Steadicam and basket ball, Oh the memories.... I was on that same Fox sports show it was a lot of fun and even more exhausting :). The only way steadicam worked for the game is being able to be in the court and not have to worry about the live audience. (I got knocked around and almost got run over a few times.) Now for the "show" Steadicam was very useful for the opens, transitions and closers, But i would have to say if you are covering a real game... Go hand held.
