ProLine T2000 steadicam group buy - Part II

[Joe Minuni]

Any updates from Luciano? Status has been same on their site.
Or any kind of projected ETA?

 

[David Kellermann]

Afaik they are in the manufacturing process right now. I asked already Luciano for some photos in the last mail to him. Hopefully we'll see some updates soon. They should ship in ~30-40 days.

Is anyone from this group going to RED Germany's opening party? Would be nice to see you there!

 

[David Kellermann]

Go to the ProLine facebook page... there are many different ProLine rigs in use. The estimated delivery time when the group buy closed was 45 to 60 days, and as far as I know there are in time. There will be a nice extra feature included (can't tell you what), which is maybe gonna take some more days to produce.

 

[David Kellermann]

Not ProLine related, but I thought that some might be interested none the less. I consider organizing an other group buy for rehoused Nikon (or Leica) lenses. Here's the link.

Cheers
David

An update from Luciano:

Ok David give me one week more and I ll star posting the pictures, and in 17 days all the parts should be done and ready to assemble. We had to make it with many suppliers to get everything in time because it was to much for just one factory.
Thanks a lot

Luciano

Is this still available?

I've been away on shoots for a few weeks and there are so many different threads about groubuys on steadicams now, it's a little daunting to catch up on haha.

Sorry Dave. It's been over for a while. I guess you'll have to play with mine

Here's the last mail by Luciano. He also talked about some surprises for our red edition, but asked me not to write about it before he tested them. "the first gears are gonna be ready for delivery around June 10 Th maybe before. we ll try to assemble all the gears together but will be shipping by one. I ll send you the pictures this week is been hard for me because we had to hire suppliers worldwide for the quantity and quality for the gears and take this to another level."!

 

[Oscar Stegland]

A thought struck me. Anyone know if batteries are included? Even so, can the pinch be used to charge batteries?

 

[David Kellermann]

Nope, no batteries are included, just the battery plates. I own GMP 160 (regular, not red edition) and am pretty happy with them.

I doubt that you can charge your batteries on the rig.

 

[David Kellermann]

Some updates on our rigs... all photos are taken from the ProLine facebook page. You can find more photos there.

And yes, that's Ted from RED trying out the T2000 reduser edition at Cinegear.

 

[Curran Giddens]

Hey, how's it going?

 

[David Kellermann]

According to Luciano, everything is done except the laser engraving and anodizing of the top stage. Hopefully, we'll get the rigs in the next two weeks.

 

[Curran Giddens]

That is great news. Thanks!

Sucks I missed this one.
But then I dont know what I should jump on first.
Looking at getting both a 3 axis gimbal and steadicam just over time.
Both need some learning time / workshop time.

Im start a thread gimbal vs stedaicam
Would like get every ones opinion on some of this.
and would it be better for some one to get a less priced steadicam to start with vs this one or ones that are more?

 

[Bob Gundu]

If you want the pro and cons of a Movi type device vs a steadicam, check out the Steadicam forums. It's pretty heated but there are may good points for each.

I looked at some of the steadicam forums but seems most dont like REDuser from what it seems... every one here is been cool.

But I was looking for more then just VS type.
