Hi Charles, thanks, it's a great honour to receive a compliment from an accomplished and respected pro as yourself.

Killer Merlin work!; I swore you were shooting with the Flyer!

Chris Walker June 22nd, 2007 07:20 AM

Just a heads up. B&H does not have the Merlin Arm and Vest listed online. But, you can place an order over the phone. The item number is STMAV. They require a CC to put it on order. Card is charged at the time of shipment.

Great work on the video.

Great job!! I think the vest would put some restrictions in crowded places.. its really fantastic to see what u did with a handheld!

I'm testing the arm and vest on a shoot this week and will post results. I'm flying a Canon A1 with their wide adaptor, which maxes out the Merlin (all weights up, plus one extra). Uncomfortable to handhold for long, but a walk in the park with the vest and arm. Stay tuned!

Nick Tsamandanis June 27th, 2007 09:46 PM

Charles, any chance you can post some of the footage you shoot with the Merlin, arm & vest? That would be great!

Charles Papert June 27th, 2007 09:50 PM

Unfortunately no...the client owns the footage.

Nick Tsamandanis July 5th, 2007 07:42 PM

Ok, will post some footage when mine arrives. I also ordered a Steadistand, docking bracket and customized travel bag.
