Hallo Julian, Yes, at the HVX the "OIS" must be turnnd off. And for your low mode problem only some examples: get one of your batteries to the other side of the post (if it is possible with your rig) or get one of the batteries directly on the monitor or get some extraweigth on your monitor or.... but these are the basics how setting up your rig and how it works ;) After you did a workshop you will never have such a problem again. Greetings, Chris

Danke sehr cool, nach Köln komm ich leider eher selten, aber falls ich doch mal da sein sollte werd ich mich mal vorher melden. And thanks for all your offers and replys. Gruss and Greeting, Chris

Hi, Nice blury pics, here is one of me shooting musicvideo last week. Greetings, chris

Thanks, but i know christian betz(i have my own RIG-HD)and their WK-vest is too long in the back. If nobody contacts me, i will test this (not perfekt fitting) one, but i thought in this big city would be an operator with WK and nearly my size. ...and whats your size and how much Job? chris

Hallo, Does somebody use a Walter Klassen Vest in Berlin (Germany)? Im have a new GPI-Pro vest, but i would like to test the WK-backmount :rolleyes: . Im ca.1,75 m tall and my weight 64 kg. chris

The EFP-training DVD is funny and nice, also Jerrys book "steadicam operators handbook" is a good start. All basics(position,switch,...) with many pictures. But i think a workshop/or some instruction-training with an operator, is the best way to start into steadicamworld. Greetings, chris

At my Betz-Rig it raise the stage ca. 3 cm over the stock position. I think it would be the same hight at Pro or MK-v. Hear some pics of my Rig with and without tilt stage:

Hallo Rich, I use the Betz-Tools tlit head on my rig-hd now for 1/2 year it is real solid and fast to install i love it and use it almost all the time. I, tested PRO and G-50/70 (even gc gold,master,...) some month ago and i think it was the only real heavy solutuion i hab to make,wile buying me rig. Finally i fell in love with the PRO-arm. Chris

Hi Afton, I used the Ex3 with a spezial zoom control from Bebob (Bebob Zeo-EX),its only made for use with sony xdcam EX1-3 like the one from varizoom. I only worked with the EX standart lens.And the Zeo worked good for zoom and rec/stop. http://www.marcotec-shop.de/de/products/ca...detail_1180.htm chris

Thanks Colin for the fast answer. I see the problem,thats what i thought.I have seen this nice VLS bracket. Brant already contacted me,i will ask him for more info per mail. Could it stay on the cam/handle during i change between High and Low? Chris

Hallo all, I have this Glidecam Low-Mode-Handle-Clamp http://www.glidecam.com/product-low-mode-fx.php (from my x-10) and i would now use it with my new Betz RIG with HPX3000 or HD-cam z.b HDW-790p. How much weight does it hold? Greetings form Berlin, chris

thanks guys for the fast replays, (sorry for the following german words^^): Danke für das Angebot Benjamin würde den sled gerne mal live sehen, denke nämlich das könnte ziemlich sicher das Ding sein,das mir richtig gut gefällt.Werde es allerdings nicht auf die cinec nach München schaffen,bin diese und nächste Woche sehr kurz angebunden. Aber ich wohne zur Zeit auch in Berlin, vielleicht lässt sich da mal was machen. greetings, chris

Hallo all, 1. does anybody know where i can buy MK-V stuff(Nexus +AR) in germany? 2. and is there a distributor for XCS (Ultimate sled) in germany or europe? greetings, chris
