I am selling my full documentary shooting package. Someone can grab a very good deal here for the full package and even resell individual items for a higher price. Package price is priced for this.

Selling a documentary shooting kit which served me well the last 3 years. Selling individually or as bulk package.

Kortwich VCP M3 mic preamp with all sorts of cables - 250,00 USD complete package (custom cables alone were same price)
This preamp is made by the German pro audio company Kortwich in Berlin. They build these preamps with the same quality standards to add inputs for the Sound Devices 633. Both inputs are 48v phantom powered (switchable on/off). Additionally with the package come custom made cables by Kortwich:

Power adapter for Sony NP Batteries
1x mini xlr to XLR male
2x mini xlr to XLR female
1x mini xlr to 3.5 jack
2x mini xlr to 3.5 jack (stereo)

This is perfect for lightweight setups where audio performance shouldn't suffer. Perfect for Alexa mini, Red and other small form factor cameras. It's very lightweight (half the wait of a Sound Devices 2 channel preamp) and easily velcroed to the side of a camera for fast setup.

I paid 780 Euro for everything.

Sachtler Tripod ENG 2 carbon fiber with ground spreader (see photo below, just added the spreader not shown on the picture): SOLD
Works flawless, just some light cosmetical wear on the paint from travel.

Miller 1028 Arrow 55 ENG/EFP Professional Fluid Head (100mm) - Supports up to 55.0 lbs (25.0 kg) : 1400 USD
https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/469666-REG/Miller_1028_1028_Arrow_55_ENG_EFP.html

Great head. I exchanged an O´Connor 515 with this one, compared them side by side. The head is in great shape. Was a demo head from P&S technik (the rehousing company) who used the head to test their lenses inhouse. The swivel arm is missing the screw plastic cover to screw the swivel to the fluid head by hand. I called Miller and they will send out a replacement cover on my costs to the buyer.

Bebop V98 V-Mount batteries (6x): 180,00 USD per piece
https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1409412-REG/bebob_engineering_v98_v_mount_battery_14_4v.html

these batteries have each a runtime of under 120 hours each. I stored them at the right temperature at the correct voltage. This is a good buy for anyone looking for discounted german quality batteries with low runtime. Buy with confindence. They feature USB & D-Tap outputs. I only sell them at a minium batch of 4.

L’AIGLE Exoskeleton “G” MK2 barely used with some light scratches on the point - great condition: 1500 USD
http://shop.laigleparis.fr/index.php?id_product=120&controller=product&id_lang=1

DJI Follow Focus system with new lens motor and new remote control battery: 500,00 USD
Package is like new.

Aputure D300 package - SOLD

Leica APO 70-180 2.8 in like new condition (extremely rare to find a lens in such a good condition), bought from Leica Store in Berlin in 2016. Comes with an EF mount. 3800,00 USD

Convergent Odyssey 7Q & d-tap power cable directly shipped from Convergent design US. Clean display, only 2 small lines are slightly broken off of the passive heatsink at the back. Has no effect on performance, Convergent is happy to confirm via call and send photos to future owner. Price: SOLD

Custom ACR the Beast 2 Gimbal with lots of expensive modifications. We exchanged the baseplate with an arri standard plate to make swaps from tripod to gimbal easy.

We added a v-mount plate to power the whole system with one battery. We added a custom cable powering the gimbal, adding a dtap and lemo 2pin for follow focus motors plus a cable to power cameras. It's currently equipped with a red dsmc 1 power out.

The whole system is built so that the operator can place the gimbal on the ground after takes. This is a huge benefit against typical gimbals.

The whole gimbal can be setup via lcd display & buttons at the back of the gimbal. No remote control needed.

I am selling this at 50% off as I am not able to set it up. The last operator used it so I know it works. Someone with technical skills will be able to get this baby up and running.
The vmount plate alone is worth 130 USD, the custom cable was 130 USD, so the gimbal itself is a steal. Bought it for 3500 in 2017. Cheers

All together: 9500 USD or sold individually. Should be a great deal for a documentary production company.

I´m also able to show each item via video call in case photos are not sufficient.

Cheers

Added: Convergent Odyssey 7q (500 USD) in good condition besides some wear on the paint & the back of the unit (see photos). The monitor was completely checked by Convergent and will ship directly from their Colorado headquarter in the US so buy with confidence.

I prefer a US buyer but if someone from elsewhere pays the shipping from Convergent that should be fine too.

The monitor doesn't include raw licenses.
 
Hey Jae,

I am currently in Mexico City but the full package deal I would fly over on own expenses - had plans to meet the fam in Germany anyway.
 
Bought the 7Q from Tim and he was a pleasure to work with, replied quickly and shipped the product promptly. Buy with confidence, it's a great package.
 
Thanks Gregory, anyone dealing with him - punctual & nice great to deal with.

Sachtler Tripod - SOLD
