Best Place to Get a Video Rig for the D7 or 5d Mark2
Manuello Paganelli, Photographer

->> Folks don't know if this topic has been covered here but where is the best place to get a video camera set up rig for either the 7d or 5d mark 2?

I want the whole set up with the hand grip and shoulder set 4 handheld operation. Including the mic/audio set up, rails, indifocus. I would prefer the carbon fiber roads and of course the monitor.

Is there a way to get something like this under 4k. I already got the camera and the fluid tripod.

Also any good place to get a set up of hot lights. Maybe 3 or 4 lights.

TIA

For hot lights, what are you looking to do?

Kino Flos are nice, lightweight panels and easy to rig up in ceilings, etc.. or put on C stands. Ballast is separate from the units. You can get tungsten or daylight balanced bulbs as well.

FilmTools has lots of good lighting stuff:

->> Shoulder Mount / Matte Box / Rails - Red Rock Micro.
STAY AWAY FROM CAVISION. They aren't inexpensive, they're cheap!
Monitor - SmallHD (you won'y find a better looking image on any other monitor)
Lights - KinoFlo. LED's are great, but expensive. ARRI's and Lowel's are less expensive, but heavy and hot. Kino's are right in between.
Follow Focus - Red Rock Micro or Legos (

Last, but not least, the viewfinder. Zacuto. Nothing else.

->> Manuello,

I recommend the indisystem ultracompact
http://www.indisystem.com/products/ultra_compact
and follow focus -
http://www.indisystem.com/products/indifocus_mini

both for $500, and Zacuto viewfinder, and I been using some 129 LED lights I found on ebay that are doing pretty good, I purchased 4 of them for a total of 175.

I use the above set up with a 5dmk2 and 24-105 lens and works great.
