I will use it this weekend on a shoot (videoclip) on steadicam for the first time. I was a bit worried but this sounds reassuring.

Hi Clayton,

Is it a rehoused/adapted R 35-70 mm zoom or did you use an adapter to put it on a canon mount ?

I agree with Daniel, he's right.



I don't question Matthews talent but in most cases, proper training and instruction is absolutely vital when you start. If not, unexperienced people often...

Redmote or side handle is a minimum.

The photo of you wearing the Glidecam is of course a snapshot in time, but still .... 'Bad posture' comes to mind seeing you operating. Leaning so far to the back isn't a good posture, maybe that...

Yes, check these things and be a bit more specific about the system.

I saw it last night. And I have to agree completely with Mathieu. Great looking footage, but the story wasn't great.



That is also what I think. I came home with a lot of questions in my head,...

I am also using Bosch. It works perfect and is very affordable.

Thanks for that contribution Mark. I'm in the middle of making a report (about camera choices) for some future drama series production for television where the post production workflow is indeed very...

Very smart !

And yes, fotodiox makes a sturdy fit.

It is a personal thing, an individual choice ! Posture is the main issue !
Proper training and coaching is a key element, so is the right knowledge.

A beautiful cinematic creation. Well done !

Thanks for the 'friendly' words! Seems Josh comment is proven wright :)

Well said Josh !



Something that is all too easy forgotten here on the forum.

Greg is right. The answer is not simple and I wasn't accurate. With 'The glass design stayed the sam', I meant that this was often the case when they added ROM contacts.
As one example, one of there...

Great so see this. Looks good !
I will work for the World Championship Cyclo-Cross at the end of the month in Koksijde here in Belgium, unfortunately without an EPic :(

Those different versions often have different 'cam'-systems. You have 1 cam, 2 cam, 3 cam, R only and ROM. Through the years, Leica kept adding cams for the mechanical communication between the...

I also did a manual setup for that reason.

Heyheyhey !!! :)

Black Shading is done to eliminate the 'left' current while the sensor is in complete darkness. That 'left behind' or residue current gives you noise otherwise.
Also a shift in colour may occur in...
