Do you have an idea what it would cost to convert to 19mm rods?

What about the RED 15-19 adapter?

Hey Gunleik,

I didn't know they had such a thing. Where is it on the website? (I don't see it in the Red Store).

 

[Steve Gal]

This is what you need.

Or the better built Abel version.

Or a height adjustable one which is also well built from Cavision, which is also much cheaper.

And there you have it- several options.

 

[Steve Gal]

Although I do not like the adjustable option. You are asking for trouble in the rental world with that one. A fixed adapter would be my preference since there is no reason for adjusting if it is set to spec. And I am not endorsing the quality of the ebay one from India. Only put it up because I saw it there while searching. I am sure the one from Abel Cinetech will be much better made and to exact spec.

 

[Mitch Gross]

Thanks Steve. I should point out that the unit from India that Steve pointed out is a copy (an exact copy!) of the Chrosziel version. We like our design for a number of reasons but if you buy the one that does the job that you need, then more power to you.

I have one. It screws on the universal mount.

Still For Sale. Thanks

I've bought some of the Indian knock offs before and they use vastly inferior materials. The good thing is you literally can re-shape their gear with your hands. Think of it as a cross between 6061 and playdough.

 

[Billy Mead]

As mentioned PLEASE do not buy ANY of that Indian crap... We made the mistake before with them. It's ALL JUNK. You get what you pay for has never been more correct in this case.

 

[bottoms]

Maybe you guys should start a thread about it?

 

[Steve Gal]

All their items are knock-off's. Did you see their Flycam 3000 pro. Looks like a Glidecam 2000 pro to me except that you can bend and shape it like Tim mentioned. How original. Must be great for balancing.

No need.. i was supporting your cause. You have a pro piece of gear that’s top of the line.
