Premium Members Daniel Stilling DFF Posted January 14, 2011 Premium Members Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 Hello all, I know that through times there has been a plethora of offerings concerned weight cages and/or plates. I was just wondering what is available these days and if anybody has some good advice. I used to only fly big cameras, but it seems like they are either going giant (3D comes to mind) or tiny (7D, HDVs), and I have been getting calls lately for the little guys so it's time to get one of them cages. Please help me out! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members William Demeritt Posted January 14, 2011 Premium Members Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 http://www.steadicamforum.com/index.php?showtopic=12756 Just a few months ago, I bought a weight cage from Janice Arthur. Very happy with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Members RonBaldwin Posted January 15, 2011 Premium Members Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 Ditto, Except I bought mine from Kevin, then from Janice. I believe she makes 6.5, 11 and 15 lb plates with a choice of long or short rods to put them together. They are great to have. I got the 6.5/11/long rod combo and it's about 19 lbs. I think she has some lighter plates available now (2.5 alum?). I recently did my first dslr shoot with Charles Papert. He had everything mounted to a 6.5 lb plate via redrock bracketry...so the "camera" was a 20 lbs total. rb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Members Nic Owens Posted January 22, 2011 Premium Members Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 Janice's weight cage is simple to set up and fantastic to use. In that price bracket there was nothing I could find that came close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
