Hi there,
I have an EASOM Halo rig that I received back in early September. I used it a couple of times, and absolutely love the craftsmanship put behind it.
However, I have been extremely bothered by the fact that I can't put my battery grip on my 5D or 7D and place it within the cage. My shooting requires that I constantly roll, and I need the extra battery in the grip to be able to do this. Unfortunately, the cage doesn't allow room for the grip. After debating for several months, I'd like to get rid of it.
Cory Easom posted his prices as such:
(A) Halo Cage (includes 15 inch, 12 inch and 9 inch REV-2 CF rod sets) $549
(B) Solo Cage (includes 15 inch, 12 inch and 9 inch REV-2 CF rod sets) $395
(C) (XYZ Baseplate/Tripod mount $265 (includes 12 inch REV-2 CF rods) $265
(D) XYZ Baseplate/Tripod mount (without rods) $225
(referenced on Cinema5D here http://www.cinema5d.com/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=6401&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=1230
I have both of the products in bold red, but there are a couple of things not there. First, the Halo Cage I was shipped came with 12", 9", and 6" rods (rather than the 15").
Secondly, I made the request to not have the Manfrotto 323 plate shipped with the XYZ Baseplate, as I already had a 577 mount here. Therefore, I can lower the cost of this.
If you want to purchase both together, I can part with them as a set for $710 + shipping.
PM me if you're interested.
