Show your rigs

Side brace C-frames are ProAim India - today I would buy these here though - much better quality:

This one is also very nice: http://www.ebay.de/itm/Rail-system-...=AU_Video_Cam_Accessories&hash=item33693f81a5



There are actually 2 base plates on my rig. One (the lower one, that also holds the rods and c-frames) is a Bescor v-mount studio plate.
On top of that, there is a fast release plate for the camera, so I can remove it from the cage within seconds.

Very nice, I am waiting for some cash to get a Easom Halo Solo and Berky Baseplate for my FS100!
 
Looking at all those big rigs, I wonder whether the tripods many of them are mounted on have enough load capacity? Like 12-15 kgs? Judging from the size of the head balls, they don't...

This is somewhat of a problem to me right now. My big and heavy EX1 rig I'm using with a hefty tripod (up to 15 Kgs pay load), but for the FS100 I wanted to go lightweight, so I bought the 504HD head on carbon legs (very nice and light tripod from Manfrotto), This is ideal for the FS100 alone, but the full-blown rig is definitely too heavy for it...
 
Here's my rig. Will be shooting a huge action scene next week... will update you guys on what i'm actually using on set.

New standard config until I get me my Vari-ND. Shot on an EX1. In my garden (as I'm too cheap to hire a proper blackout studio).
 
Haha yeah seems to be someone hiding under there.

Shoulder pad looks awfully far back though.

Shoulder pad can be ajusted, just slapped it together for the picture. Most certainly
did not see my wife in the background when I took it, will repost new pics later.
 
I just received my Sachtler DV-10 SB and 100ENG2 CF HD Legs from B&H
I love the legs, but the DV-10 head is a bit smaller than I actually thought, especially with such a beefy tripod and I'm thinking about sending it back and exchanging it for the DV-12 SB... Could anyone say otherwise and advise me to keep the DV-10?

It doesn't looks too bad in the photo

This is ccmpleted situation of my rig with Zacuto FS-100 kit and Berkey parts. I have installed everything just showing. It is now almost like a regular shoulder type camcorder.
















 
I didn't weight yet, but I call it terminator. It terminates me :)

It is well balanced, even it says in my shoulder without touching it. I will not use everything on the rig same time (led lights, extra handles etc). My friend said it is lighter than his shoulder camcorder.
