This is the ultimate HVX200/Redrock 35mm adapter kit. Selling it after two years of pampering, would like it to go to a good home. It's in great condition...

As you know the biggest thing about these adapters is calibration... More of an art than science. I think I've perfected the art. I've taken the time to properly collimate it for Canon FD lenses. It also uses amazing custom ground glass from Easom Aerospace made from glass rather than plastic. Light transmission and clarity is awesome. I've taken great lengths to get the best possible image, coupled with on the field low light usability. (Package also includes new never used cinescreen II)

The M2 adapter has also been mounted in a custom low mount for a lower center of gravity. I've kept the camera as light as possible (no unnecessary baseplate metal ) with a small form factor. Low CG of this cam also allows for proper balancing on a tripod, and makes for more stable handheld.

The custom handle is amazing, makes the camera operate like a one piece solid camera and does an excellent job of maintaining great alignment so nothing ever shifts.
The handle has a few paint scuffs, functions perfectly though.

The camera has 387 operational hours and includes a 16GB R Series card.

Yup the rod holes completely line up, I should've taken a pic with rods mounted.
I purchased glass about a year and a have ago, just emailed them. Disc was made to spec, but it took a while. The disc is slightly larger than stock so it covers more of the M2 space. Not sure if they still make ground glass.
 
You wouldn't like to point me in the direction of where you got the support handle that attach's to the M2 and HVX handle, and also the 18" component cable, unless you would like to sell yours.
 
I won the custom made handle on ebay a couple years ago. The original owner had it made for his Redrock/DVX 100 camera definitely seemed like a one of a kind. I don't have his information. I adapted the DVX handle with a VF gadgets accessory handle bracket to account for the height and mounting screw differences.

The component cable I got from digitalconnection.com 1-800-327-8049. It's an 18" d4 component cable that used to be sold with a dvd player. This is a thread discussing it.

I'm currently keeping everything together as a package.
