Is there a cheap shoulder rest?


I´ve read in a thread about the CB-105 but couldn´t find anything googling.
The link in the thread doesnt work.
Which company manufactures the CB-105?

The Zacuto shoulder rest looks OK but is a little pricey.

I want a shoulder rest and hands on camera. Both hands on the rig doesnt make sense for me.

What else is there?
 
Doesn´t look handsome, but seems very practical.
Has anybody tried it?


How can I buy?
This ebay auction has ended and I can´t find any other CB-105.
Is it available in Germany?
 
I have it and i like it a lot. It doesnt look that bad...well compared to the zacuto maybe.But look at the price tag of the zacuto!
Email the seller he will open an auction for you. Thats how i got mine. I dont see why he would not ship it to germany.
The only drawback for me is that you cannot disassemble it. I take the plane often so i cannot bring it with me.
I can post pics of my setup if you like.
 
Looks like a great deal compared to DV Rig Pro and some of the other products out there. Gonna order one for myself since the HVX gets my shoulders burning in no time flat.
 
Pierre Petit:

Yes I would really like to see pictures.

Are you European based or US/did you buy yours from within the USA?

Do you have the sellers data?
Does the guy who sells them on ebay manufacture them himself, does he only sell via ebay?

Thanx
 
Ok i just woke up...will have breakfast and take a few pics.
i'm in canada and from what i understand the seller is the manifacturer.
On his review page on ebay you have a contact member button on the center left.

If he could make the finish a little better he could sell these for so much more. The counter weight system works so well. I don't understand the use of a shoulder mount were you have to support the weight of the camera with your arms.
When your are not shooting you can put the camera down and it holds it pretty well.
