I have been talking to OwlDolly about coming up with a stabilizing arm + vest for use with the Letus Helix and I want to gauge interest here before they move forward. The components would be from a Chinese manufacturer. The good news is that OwlDolly has direct communication with the factory...

The monitor on my camera is basically invisible outdoors if there is sun in the sky. How well do the various 500 nit (TV Logic, DP, iKan, etc) monitors work outdoors? Are they at all usable for framing and monitoring zebras?

I just received these and tried them out. They are a great product but I don't think they will work out for the project I bought them for, which is being smack dab in the middle of 500 people riding bicycles. *SOLD*

I was wondering what steadicam arms people are going to use with the Letus Helix? I currently do not own a steadicam arm and have seen them priced between $500-$10,000 or more.

Hello, I am in the market for my first follow focus. I want to start with something quality that will last me a very long time rather than buying something lousy and wanting to upgrade later. I have been lucky enough to do this with tripods and such and I'm happy that I did. Right now my...

I am considering these two 32tb-40 builds: 16 x WD Red 4Tb in Raid 10 (32Tb) 10-12 x WD RE 4TB in Raid 6 (32-40Tb) I was leaning towards the Raid 10 build, but the price if the RE drives have really fallen recently. My data is backed up on LTO-6 Which way would you go and why? I suspect...

I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on an HP LTO drive. The initial price difference between LTO-5 and LTO-6 is about $750 and the media is about 2/3 the cost. From what I gather, the only major difference is tape capacity. The transfer speed is not important to me. I'll be storing a few TB...

I'm putting together my first array for storage and editing. As far as performance goes, is it best to use one big array for both storage and rendering destinations? Or is it better to have a source and a destination array? My concern with one big array is that it will be necessary to read...

I have moved up to 82mm filters and am selling my 77mm Tiffen IRND Indie Kit. These filters block visible and IR light. They are in perfect condition and the kit includes 7 filters: 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, 1.2, 1.5, 1.8, 2.1 (1-7 stops of filtering) SOLD

Is anybody using the WD RED drive in a Raid configuration? How is your performance? From what I have seen they have good sequential read speed although poor random speed compared to other drives. I'm not sure how much this matters with video editing software. I'm trying to decide between the...

Hello, I have been lurking for awhile and reading what I can. Please welcome me to this amazing resource :) My question is about backing up and archiving many TB of raw footage offsite. Right now I have cloud storage (multiple targets) for my data files, photos, etc. However this just isn't...
