Best wireless video transmission for steadicam. Teradek? Paralinx?

[Eric Paczkowski]

I am interested in having my own wireless video transmitter and receiver. What is the best system to put on a steadicam so you can transmit the video feed wirelessly to a village so the director or director of photography can see your shot. Terakek? Paralinx? What is commonly used.

 

Thanks!

Hey Eric, I have recently been using the paralinx arrow and normally it works like a charm! Sometimes it can have issues if village is hidden behind a wall. The transmission can get a little glitchy by big objects, but for the most part it has been a very reliable system. I hope this helps!

I was on a shoot yesterday and the production was using Vaxis Storm and they worked perfectly .The 1st AC loved them .

Good luck .

Thanks Isaac and Louis for the input. Just looking for reliability without problems all the time. I see the Teredek Bolt used a lot, seems pretty good. Just want input from others so I can do my research and find what best works for me.

Bolt is the old standby. Boxx Atom is also very good.

[Eric Paczkowski]

Thanks for the input David. Researching all the options!

 

Best,

Anyone have experience using or testing both Teradek Bolt 2000/3000 and Boxx Atom systems? Pros and Cons. Range, resistance to interference, image quality etc. Other options?

ive owned the bolt 2000 and i was so happy to get rid of it. i have a buddy who owned the boxx atom and i used it several times and loved it. never seemed to drop signal, and the channel switching is super easy, just a button, not toggling. it would love on to a channel and work like a dream. performed very well on vehicle work. i was always breaking bolt antennae and i had the bnc connectors replaced multiple times, they got too hot, i dunno, i just never want to use them again.
