I personally love it. I know alot of people here say it isn't a very good head, but compared to what I have used in the past it ROCKS.

This is my bloated setup

http://www.droptodesign.com/test/camera/ It kinda reminds me of a weapon from the barbaric age.

Nice setup. What model is the viewfinder eyepiece and where did you get it?

Normal Canon finder with the large rubber eye-cup. It's got a chamois/foam eye "cushion" that came with a pro camera rental as freebies.

Viktor: Where did you buy the Azden SGM-1X? Also, what are you using as a XLR --> Mini adapter and where did you buy it?

I'm also thinking about buying the Azden but haven't found a good adapter yet.

Thanks.

Robin,
Cool matte box. Where'd you get that thing? I didn't know Arri made anything like that. Looks really rugged.

It's from an old Arriflex film camera. It's got two filter slides, one of which rotates, so this is the one that holds a grad filter.
Unfortunately, the filter size is 4" x 3", but luckily I've got a set of most filters in that size. At least, if I need some new ones, I can always buy 4" x 4" and cut them down ;-)
It came with the rods, but I had the adaper plate for the camera made up by the BBC workshops here.

Ronnie:
I got all info from this thread http://www.dvinfo.net/conf/showthrea...threadid=22353
I bought both the mic and the adaptor from B&H. The XLR -> mini is a HOSA cable, but you can build your own. http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/cont...=158476&is=REG


I see that you posted that you had problems shipping it to Sweden. I had it shipped to a friend in the US that brought it back to me. There is also a distributor in the UK. http://www.azden.info/
