I'm trying to research any problems we might run into by bringing a complete camera package from the US to Austria for a shoot. Can anyone give me any information or a heads up on problems we might run into? I'm specifically concerned about power, adjustments necessary to shutter to avoid flicker, 60hz monitors, running off their power etc...

Also, I've been told that due to the high lithium levels in RED batteries, companies like Panavision can't ship them out with Red's that they have in house. Does anyone have experience with taking them on a flight overseas?

Just get a Carne http://www.atacarnet.com/WhatisanATACarnetorCarnet.aspx

Thats the way to go. Shutter at 172.8 for 24fps in 50hz countries.

Cheers,
