  • 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 :)

Premium Production Pack

Bring 'em on!

On another note, I think I'll get the Premium Production Pack. Most of what I shoot calls for the Basic Production Pack, but if I get the Premium, then I can always reduce it to the Basic anytime I want by simply using the parts of the Premium that I need for the stripped down setup. But when those "everything but the kitchen sink on the camera" gigs come along it would be way nice to have the mondo kit option available.
 
I'm definitely going with the premium pack. It's about options.

What ever happened to the T-Handle that was shown a month or two back? Is it included? Are the new rods steel or titanium? Is the Premium Production Pack a bundle of all the accessory attachments, or will there still be several others to buy in order to get a "complete" kit? Obviously more handles and such things can be purchased at any time, I just wanted to get a feel for what's out there. I guess I'm just anxious to see an official accessory list and pack details.
 
Another top handle observation: Check out image on main page @ www.red.com. Backwards configuration + grip mounting on bracket is reverse of today's new pics. More evidence that pieces are separate and everything is modular.
 
Yeah ! looks great...light the damn thing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do I have to ask in other languages ???????????

I wonder if there will be an option for non-metallic grip coverings for cold weather work, or will we have to make our own - or are those already rubberised?

If it's for cold climate work, won't you be wearing gloves or some kinda hand protection? That said, but a rubber coating should be a good idea.

If only they used Gore-Tex!
 
a question on that image:

If you have a longer zoom and you want to extend the rods out to support it and use a matte box, what happens to the battery assembly?

I'd assume that you'd also want to send that further out too. Do you just use longer rods? So then do you also have to undo it all to rebuild for a 25-250?
 
im sure its more practical but doesnt look as polished as some of the other designs, all those exposed tubes look a bit less flash :-)

is the price of this new design the same as the old ones or cheaper?

Ouch! You got me on that one. I've made others, believe me.

I know how to spell "flexible", but I missed that typo. My problem is that I can think fast, but my typing skills are always way behind my thinking skills! :wacko:

Even with gloves, gripping anything metal will suck the heat out of your hands. It has a lot to do with pressure. As soon as you grab even a 10 pound metal object and hold it the compression at your fingers has effectively negated your insulation. Even with light objects like an Ice Axe, the hand that holds the axe gets cold realllll quick.
