Hi Gersam, I have bought a rig, thanks

Hey Rick, many thanks for lending me the Sushi Server. Picked up my rig earlier in the week and going to set it up very soon. Grant was super helpful. Rory

Hi Rick thats great, thanks. He can leave it for my attention at any of the rental houses. Could you guess how much it weighs ? Looking to add some mass too. Rory

Hi I'm looking for a practise cage, up to 7kg, suitable for flying a small DV camera. Rory

Now sorted, thanks

Hi Looking for a cheap practise rig Contact me via private message please Rory

Hi should a practise rig be similar to the type you eventually want to use, or are the principles the same with a lightweight rig and a heavy rig ? I have the possibility to buy a Steadicam Flyer (the original one) and I would really like to have my own rig to practise on but don't want to outlay a fortune until I am sure its for me. tia Rory

Hi all looking for a used Cinematography Electronics Cinetape A Preston DM1 or DM2 motor Digital Microforce im in London thanks Rory rory <dot> moles <at> blueyonder <dot> co <dot> uk

The new style, single channel handset, only. (Preston Part 4024) But also in the market for Digital Microforce and DM-2 motor. Email replies to rory<dot>moles<at>blueyonder<dot>co<dot>uk thanks Good price paid for complete and clean equipment Rory

Hi All Still looking for used Preston Dm2 or Dm1 Motor, and used digital microforce DM2 preferred I am in the UK so EU preferred but any place considered tia Rory Moles

My 2 cents: Having owned both BFD and Preston I concur that both are rock solid and reliable solutions. I think the BFD and the Preston should both be powered from an adapter bracket between the battery and the camera body if they are not being powered from the sled. In the UK this is a "V-Lock Pag adapter" and supplies 12V power direct from the battery via a 2-pin pag socket. However it depends on the battery system supplied with your camera. But this gives a few more Amps than the PAG socket near the handle on Sony cameras. (The Obie light socket). Id also suggest mounting the FF Receiver/Driver towards the back of the camera, as they are generally front-heavy. Also you will probably want to get hold of the Canon pitch gear (0.5) for your motors unless they are cine style when regular pitch (0.8/32P) will do good luck Rory Moles

Looking for the above, I need one DM2 and one DM1, prefer Hill bracketry, anyone ? Rory Moles London 1st AC

I have an FI+Z with the thick moulded rubber handgrip. Is there a bracket which will allow you to mount the digital microforce on the side of the unit while keeping the handgrip on ? I understand the original bracket is too short ? If someone sells them, please point me in the direction ! tia Rory Moles 1st AC London heres the picture from Jerry Hll's website - not terribly useful as you cant actually see the grip, but you know the grip I mean...
