Oh drool, dude....

 

[Zach Hilton]

I knew good things come to those who wait!

 

[Justin Kirchhoff]

Holy crap....I poo'ed myself.

 

[Brook Willard]

You must be kidding me with that top handle design. That's freakin' awesome.

 

[Andreas Fernbrant]

How come you ditched the carbon fiber rods?

 

[Alex Boothby]

Cool - this photo just answered my all my top-handle questions in the other thread. I shoulda guessed - the answer is MODULAR!

 

[roryhinds]

looks great.

So what's the weight of the system as I'm trying to work out what head to get?
Will the O'connor 1030 work or do you need 2060?

They explode. :tongue:

 

[Andreas Fernbrant]

They explode. :tongue:

So can my computer/car/cellphone/ but I still use it :innocent:

 

[Alex Boothby]

I think the rods are now titanium!

 

[Justin Kirchhoff]

That's a good question on the tripod heads. I need to find one that can do the job...what's your suggestion Jarred?

 

[Michael Ragen]

Is it possible to top mount the battery with this setup or just have the battery hanging off the back without the drive mount. I'm probably going to be shooting to CF 99% of the time. I'm thinking of a setup similar to the roller blade shot.

 

[Jaime Vallés]

So the premium production pack comes with an O'Connor tripod head included? :tongue:

Joking aside, that looks seriously cool.

 

[Jim Arthurs]

I think from now on, all still images you post of REDs should be taken by other RED's.

Hey, doesn't that "cage" member sort of get in the way of the side run switch? I know, I know, modular, but I could see someone fumbling for it the way it's laid out...

I really do like the top grip. A bunch.

 

[Clayton Harper]

Hey Jarred,

Do you still get the 19mm to 15mm rod adaptor with this set?

 

[Evin Grant]

Is the connection to the body going to remain the hex screws or is it going to be some sort of quick(er) release system. If it is going to be hex can you trap them with a retaining ring so they wont fall into the grass and be lost to all space & time?
Thanks.

o'connor 2030 and 2060 have been doing us very well. when you start adding things like matteboxes etc. it quickly passes the 15 pound maximum heads.

 

[Alex Boothby]

Did you mean 1030?

Haha, Brook... you're so funny. We always manage to see things the other way around!

I actually quite liked the length of the previous top handle design as there was no chance for it to protrude over the lens. The one in the "basic" pack is the other extreme - a small stump that - although I'm sure will be handy for those on a tighter budget - doesn't mount in two places and give that extra support I'll definitely want. I was digging the carbon fiber, too, though I admit that was purely for aesthetic pleasures. Totally minor changes that don't impact what's really important... I can't wait for this baby to come out!!

Ralph Oshiro is going to freak.
