Shoulder Rig / Tripod Setup for Scarelt X

[Mathias HAecki]

In the past I've used smaller cams like the JVC HM100.
As these Cams are lighter and use less additional goodies I might, or pretty sure will need a new setup to match along a possible Scalet purchasing.

Any suggestions for a good, matching shoulder rig and complete tripd/head setup?

I'm not looking for the most expensive stuff. But the setup should be light because i do a lot of run an gun shooting, traveling by planes.

thx

Hi I made a little treath on this. http://reduser.net/forum/showthread.php?66028-Cheap-Scarlet-Setup-Scetch
I'v tought a little bit more about the options and stuff a this is definitly not my final setup.
I forgot a converter cable so the red-one vmount on the back can power the scarlet.
I would choose for the Samurai because it's no sure the HDMI out works propperly.
This is a good base of how you could do it. Maybe I would choose to just record on SSD en use the 5" touch in place of the Ninja.
THe battery on the back looks ideal for me for the counterballance. I'm still puzzling and wait for my budget goes up.

I'd probably use a Cineroid EVF and a Samurai for longer shoots like life acts.
But i would leave the 5'' Touch on it as its nice to configure and you'll get a bigger preview.
Short advertisement stuff i would probably shoot on some SSD's to keep things simple and use the full potential.

I'm not sure in what direction i should go with the tripod.

In the past i've used some Manfrotto stuff, but my 501 head will not be good enough to use with this cam.
I thought about a Sachtler but never owned one yet.
Maybee someone can give me an Inpute here.

Btw if i'll get this cam i'll def. get these nice xlr adapters. Making life on set so much easier as the small plugs are not very comon and weak.
