This is our first time to display our gear in public. (DV Expo)
We show couple our new designs. (prototype.)
Many people show interests on this prototype which come with a shoulder and belt adapter. Plus 2 "rotating" handles.

The designer of Fishbone is coming from Taiwan and has been filming some famous TV comericals and movies. Honestly speaking, I don't have enough faith in the beginning. However, after the show, I did see some good feedbacks.

Especially some feedbacks from stabilizer operators give us a lot of faith.
Here are some more photos of our design:

No sign of pricing for the full rigs on the web site - anyone know what the XTR line costs?

I review the XTR 700 here (http://www.dvinfo.net/articles/camsupport/fishbone1.php).

Charles,

Nate Weaver--he's credited at the end and most of the pix are watermarked with his name.

Not sure if I'm going to go to NAB this year. Got sort of bored with it last year. The bloom is off the rose, as they say.

I just want to say that I really like CP because of his impartial attitude to wards other rigs. He's always open minded and free spirited. Well, we all know how some other steadicam kiss-&%¤ operators are when it comes to being open, don't we? ;) Thanks CP. I will always admire your work and openness. There are not alot of operators that are willing to do what you do, in giving an honest and impartial review. Always lots of admiration to you CP. Keep it up. :)
