Post Your Scarlet-X Rig

[Mike P.]

The Redmote can format SSDs when interacting with the menus on the output monitor (e.g. in remote mode with menus displayed on the SmallHD display in the picture you quoted) but as far as I can tell you can't format in Local mode on the Redmote.

Oh, kay... cool, I was confused about what the two different modes did... Would you happen to know if you can disable all the video overlay (goalposts, stop lights, histogram) on the monitor when you hit record? I'm still hoping to use an off board recorder (like the Pix or Samurai/Ninja) as the monitor as a short-term/temporary solution.

Looks like a Pro Aim / CineCity shoulder pad and bars - I have the same one. No doubt it may be available with different names.

Hey Mikael,
Quick question(s): how do you like using the red mote as your main form of control (assuming you don't have a touchscreen or side handle)? And can you format the REDmag using the REDmote?

Great looking minimal rig, by the way.

I really like the redmote, it's very neat! Haven't tested the side handle or touchscreen, though. All I can say is that it's heaven compared to my old DSLR, hehe :)

And as Harrison said, you can format SSDs with the redmote through the menus on the display.

What is the brand of shoulder pad Mike?

It's a very cheap one, from India, Pro Aim. Replaced the 15mm rod-clamps at the top, with a simple quick release system.

Dustin, what's your outrigger handle? Or where's it from? Thanks!

Patrick, the handle is actually just a generic handle purchased off of eBay. It is outrigged with the x Easy Stick.

Here's my setup from the Eclipse shoot:



Once the lens gets heavier then the Scarlet - it's the Scarlet that rides in the air. And this is when you really appreciate the double locking Canon EF mount...
Had to also reverse the GearNex head back-to-front as the Scarlet would hit the tilt wheel, worked fine this way. To track slow moving subjects on large telephoto lenses (like this 800mm) you really need the geared head and even then it is a challenge...
All supported by my trusted Manfrotto 545GB sticks...

Sure. x across the board kind of. Shoulder rig with A-Lock, top plate, handle, bottom plate, 19mm Bridge Plate, Chrosziel Telescoping Rods, Lanparte Follow Focus, which....is super amazing. The quality is astonishing for the price...super solid. Very impressed so far with the ff.

Cheers.

Thanks Philipp ... appreciate that

Anyone recommend a good hood for the 5inch touch lcd screen?

Anyone recommend a good hood for the 5inch touch lcd screen?

The hoodman built for the 5.6inch R1 LCD works perfectly on it! I'd grab you a link if I wasn't running out!
