Yep, looked pretty dorky.

I did see a few guys walking around with the DVRigPro. Looked pretty nice. I wish I could have taken them up on the free rig offer.
 
I still chuckle everytime I see that thing.
I voted HVX200 as Best Gadget at NAB or something close to that. What won yesterday?

I didn't see any footage rolling but I handled it and didn't see any improvement over my regular handheld work.
The guy kept on saying something about how when you carry a hot bowl of soup you always carry it with two hands for better stability and that's what gave him them idea for it. I just don't get it...
 
Mike Figgis (Leaving Las Vegas, Timecode) and David Lynch have both described working with camera rigs that look like steering wheels. Now that I see the pix, your right, it kinda looks silly.
 
hmm...i dunno...i ALWAYS have a bowl of water sittin ontop of my camera when i operate...this way im not careless about how i shoot...cause i dont want to spill da wawwa on da camawa

Actually, Mike Figgis worked with Manfrotto to create this commercialised version of the, "Fig Rig"
 
I think what he meant was when you carry a bowl of soup with two hands you can carry it much smoother so if you carry the camera the same way with two hands it ...must... be smoother.
 
Yes, I voted it Worst of NAB--before NAB even opened. :happy: Ask them if you can swap out the camera mounting plate for a soup bowl mount. TC--don't go picking on Sirius, he's one of the only people writing up some new products from NAB for the rest of us (thanks Sirius!).
