hi there people,

i have a question, i'd like to buy the letus 35 extreme with a mattebox, and a FF from redrock but the problem is i am not sure wich rod system is the best for using with the sony ex1 and also with the matte box as well as with the letus.

what do you think should i go for the newest letus rod system or go for zacuto? i will use a lot of handheld as well as studio shots... but i think ill use it more as handheld....

thx for your answers...

I would buy the Zacuto system if money is not a problem. You might also look at the zacuto lunchbox, if you use heavier lens, mattebox ...etc on the front end of your setup.

One of the advantage of the cavision or letus rail system design is that you can shift the camera weight to the rear of your setup for balancing the heavier front end. Also, you dont have to suspend your cam and have weird weight distribution on your tripod head.

Zacuto makes nice stuff but they charge you a top premium price for it.
