HV20 + Brevis Upside Down Rig

[sinapps]

So I got inspired by the Redrock HV20 Rig and decided to build my own...

Parts used:

1 Cavision Rail Support System
1 pair of Cinevate CF Rails
1 Cinevate 15mm Rails block
1 Cinevate Brevis-To-Rails Mount
1 Handle from Reid Supply
1 L Bracket mount from photo store
2 Hot Shoe mounts

Dude that setup looks HOT!

Especially with the followfocus it looks pro! Do you have any footage taken with that cool skateboard tripod?

I always dig HV20 homemade rigs.

 

[Michael Friedman]

Very cool!!! Really negates the need for the flip on this model.

Do you have any footage taken with that cool skateboard tripod?

Thanks. No, not yet. I'm actually trying to build a large version of that dolly.

What's the total cost of your mount setup, excluding the camera, lense, adapter and skater dolly?

 

[sinapps]

I had most of the pieces for use with my XHA1. I only bought the following additional items to build this mount:

1 Cinevate 15mm Rails block ~$35
1 Handle from Reid Supply ~$18
1 L Bracket mount from photo store ~$35
2 Hot Shoe mounts ~$9
Aluminum + Misc Screws ~$25

Added a monitor today...

 

[Rodney V. Smith]

now that is a sweet looking set up. makes me think of getting an HV20 now for a smaller more compact camera set up. Would make a nice alternate to the HVX and can fit into tight corners, maybe for wide angle shots in a car... hmmmm

 

[Jon Neely]

Very cool, how do you like the HV20's performance to compared the DVX with a 35mm adapter?

[sinapps]

Sorry, can't answer that. I don't have a DVX. Also 100% of what we shoot is for web delivery so even the HV20 is overkill.

 

[Jon Neely]

Are you using Berrys Hacks or are you just keeping it to shutter priority and apiture priority? How are the results with the brevis?

is that monitor being run through yellow rca or component?
