  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

First Sneak Peek Element Technicas Handheld System for RED!!!!!

Riding too high issue- I'll take the comfort of a nicely padded shoulder pad even though it ends up riding higher. Please keep in mind, I'm a short small guy..so proportionately the ET handheld rig looks big on my shoulders...put this rig on Brook, Ken or the Hoff..you'll probably see how the height is not as bad as it appears in the picture.

As soon as the design is locked I'll do a video demonstrating how this whole rig works. Everything is adjustable...so I think that there won't be any concerns with the rosette handles being in the way of the follow focus or any other rod stuff. I forgot to mention that the shoulder system is lightweight.

A tacky rubber shoulder pad would be a nice option as well. Stephen and Hector do listen to community feedback.. the more concerns you express, the better they'll be able to make their products.
 
In regards to the battery..there will be different future battery mounting and red drive solutions coming over the horizon.

The top mounted red battery configuration is my own personal preference for a compact system. I agree, it doesn't make it ideal for a balanced shoulder mount config. I just want to make clear that the battery placement in the pic is not an "ET" config. I put the battery plate there with a couple bolts and washers.
 
As soon as the design is locked I'll do a video demonstrating how this whole rig works.

You stealing my job now big-T?
 
Good stuff,

will be visiting ET shortly to accessories my cameras and this was one of their items that I was looking forward to see.


One thing for sure is so good to have options!

The padding looks to be very comfortable, hope it will be, and the same goes for practicality of use.

Ciao,

KETCH ROSSI
