I've been building a series of prototypes over the past five years & we now hire the current dolly out. Mainly on features, dramas & music videos. The vehicle is totally based around use with Steadicam & MK-V, either hard or soft mounted. Step on & off is a breeze & the smooth motors make it a very safe piece of kit to use. We rig around the Steadi Op & then the focus-puller. We have our own Klassen for hard-mounting & rig the scaffolding to create better balance for different surfaces; camber on pavement etc. DP, usually wants to hop on too & that is fine. You can see a taste of our work on our website: www.flyka.tv We are also hoping to take pre-bookings for our 23mph model through Kickstarter. I'd appreciate feedback, but i can assure you that all that have used it, have really enjoyed it & created some lovely shots from it...we just need it to go faster, which we are in the process of doing. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1449612280/flyka-electric-tracking-dolly-for-film-and-tv-stea

Selling a Sactler ACT2 vest for producer friend. It's In great condition and does everything it should do. Comes with the carry bag and some replacement padding. I'll throw some better pictures up as soon as I get the chance and it's not midnight. $2700USD + shipping. Thanks for reading. (Justin in Sydney has one for sale with less scratches. Not trying to drive his price down, just changing to a Klassen and he needs to finance it soon.)

Hey Everyone, I'm looking to Sell or Trade my Tiffen Ultra 2 vest. It's seen a good bit of use. It works Perfectly but cosmetically is a little rough. I do love this FM vest, but I'm selling it because I recently purchased a Walter Klassen Flex vest, and it suits my needs better. One issue would be a small piece of the velcro on the left shoulder strap under the shoulder latch that holds the padding on has become frayed over time, it doesn't effect the function of the padding at all however as it's only a small portion of the velcro, and would be a super easy fix. I never bothered as it didn't effect the padding and wasn't enough to cause it to move. I've never had any issues with the socket block, works perfectly. The vest is super comfortable, and can be modified to fit many body sizes. I'm looking to either sell the vest or would like to trade for, or put towards the sale of an HD monitor suitable for steadicam. Maybe you have a backup monitor you're looking to get rid of, or are making the jump to a newer model and are looking to part with an older model. Let me know if this interests you. I'm also willing to work into the deal a TIffen Black Hard Shell case w/ wheels that I used for the vest and arm. The case is in excellent shape and has a dense foam liner inside, with 4 solid case fasteners and lock holes on the outside. Excellent for travel. The exterior moulded shell says Steadicam as part of the casings mold. I also have an extra strap buckle and receiver for the vest that I'll throw in. Currently the vest is in my gear lockup, I'll be there on Tuesday and can take some photos if there's interest. PM if interested!! Thanks for looking. - Ian
