SGPro Blade Review

[philip bloom]

They are still pretty cheap! The Blade and the Extreme and both cheap. Sure you can get cheaper, but these are high quality products. The price to get a "film look" these days is more affordable than ever but more important BETTER than ever!

[philip bloom]

it's much lighter. The extreme is made out of one piece of milled solid aluminum.

Philip, do you have the non-filp tube as well? How heavy is it compared to the flip?
I recently bought RR mattebox and I find it difficult to balance my setup. I definitely need lighter adapter and have considered getting non-flip Blade...

I have the tube, it is lighter but haven't used it.

everyone stop asking the man questions so he can post some footage and give us a review.

one thing I loved on the beta unit I had was how easily but, efficent changing lens mounts is. I have a FD, EOS, and NIKON mounts. once each is backfocused, they interchange in less than a minute. 3 screws and a flush fit.

 

[philip bloom]

the footage isn't v exciting but it will serve it's purpose!!

 

[philip bloom]

[trez]

[Leo Versola]
