Arrrrggh. Winter ! Don't even talk about it. The most exasperating waste of bloody time of the year. This year we are going FO somewhere else.

The servos are the Savox items that were supplied with the AV200 i.e. Tilt: SC-1258TG, Roll: SH-1290MG, Pan: SG-0351. As I said, the pan was locked off to make two-axis control but I know the Pan servo is crappy. It is slow as hell. But the other two are not so bad. Besides, I do not mind a...

These sequences were shot near Tours on the river Loire. Canon 5D on the AD-8 HLE with an AV200/360 mount and a Picloc 3X Pro. Pan function disabled leaving just Tilt and Roll control. Sorry about the tedious privacy thing. It will only be temporary. Password is <mombasaflash>

Haven't got around to it yet. I'll try it out tomorrow and let you know.

There is some possible overseas work coming up and this means getting transport cases organised. With MR's being such ungainly shapes there are very few off-the-shelf solutions. All-in-one road cases are available but they are made with regular music gear road case materials and will weigh a...

The HDMI feed from the camera does indeed power the converter. I have found that it even finds its way through to the Iftron video Tx. However, I prefer to power the converter separately to avoid running down the camera battery quicker - particularly with the NEX, whose battery takes roughly...

Maybe you have touched upon the crucial point. You are using a gentLED LiveView that operates both shutter AND video. I have one but never used it yet because I moved on to other cameras. However, when I was using the NEX 5n and having the focus/shutter thing I was using the shutter only...

Hello, I just found this message from you regarding the Right Angle HDMI cables. In case you did not yet find a solution I got them on eBay from CineGearPro. You will find a link to the same place on post #15 of the "If you need and HDMI converter" thread. Regards Gray
