I guess it shows the kind of impact the HV20 has had on the industry when products like this start appearing.
|
That thing looks really freaking awesome. It has a really pro look to it. People who are afraid to show up for a gig with a smaller camera won't have that problem anymore if they show up with this rig. I'm very curious about how much will it cost though.
|
Am I missing a power source for the Redrock unit...? I would probably want to see a mount at the rear for a large format battery (AB or V-mount), particularly as this setup looks very front-heavy. Perfect setup actually for an HDMI recording solution to go back there...!

I've been adding to my HV20 rig, and when I saw the Redrock Micro set up, I had to take the next step.....
The mount frame, and the handles, and all probably cost about $25.00 to build. I still will add a shoulder mount. Need to figure out a follow focus next.... See photo attached... |
Hey Chris, I've been following your camera mount ideas and you got me looking around town at all the different 7" and 8" portable DVD player for external monitoring...great idea I had never considered.
But what I want to know today is, what did you use for the handles, where did you get those? |
How do you use 2 handles with an adapter? Wouldn't the image shake when you let one hand go to adjust the focus?

They were in the "bracket" hanger department at Home Depot near the aluminum tubing and such. They actuall are used for hanging things on walls. More in shape of a C. Just cut off one end. |

Monitoring with hv 20
I have DENVER DFT-709. Very inexpencive and very sharp(you have to tweak sharpness to the max). You can focus with it very easily. It has standard inputs and flip function and external battery pack for 10 standard AA batteries (It runs couple of hours on 2500mAh). At the bottom is also standard camera thread mount and it looks very solid and almost pro. (Little to big for hand held maybe).

So my question is this, when you run the HV20's signal into the player, does it fill the entire LCD proportionately or does it need to be letterboxed to look right? |
Nathan:
Every thing appears to be appropriate on the Polaroid. The mode switch has four selections which give 16:9, 16:9 inverted, 4:3 with pillars on side, and 4:3 inverted with pillars on side. There is a "hold" switch that locks the modes in, and I leave that on all the time. Comparing the 16:9 with the LCD, aspect appears appropriate. I think there are some "overscan" issues, where the entire recorded image may not show up on LCD, but I think we have all come to expect that on consumer monitor solutions. |
