Filmed and photographed with the Canon EOS 5D Mark II and EOS 7D last night during the supermoon rise. Over 75 photographers with tripods were there, which made it difficult to get wide shots and telephoto shots had me choosing between the moon and the lighthouse. But it was great fun to hang out with everyone, and the sunset was spectacular. Look for 'almost real' full moon animation near the end. Posted by Username: Cameratown on Vimeo

After the show Canon DSLR users were invited to get together for a NYC DSLR meetup held at the Lucky X Lanes on 42nd Street. It was great to meet so many filmmakers, videographers and photographers that I have been following online.

An Active Member of the American Society of Cinematographers. This invitation in April of 2004 to the ASC is a great priviledge and honour, as well as a prestigious hallmark in his career as a cinematographer.
Charters grew up in the darkroom of his fathers studio, "Charters and Guthrie Photograhers", with the smell of hypo, developer, and the allure of the enlarger. Inspired by his fathers love of movies, he took up the camera early. He quickly progressed to his fathers Bolex, and made his first film "Film Exercise" at the, University of Auckland. This short, which played to acclaim at the Sydney Film Festival, garnered Rodney a place at the prestigious Royal College of Art in London, where Charters' fellow students included such names as Directors: Tony Scott, Richard Longcraine, and D.P. Stephen Goldblatt A.S.C. Upon graduation, Charters worked briefly on commercials while living in London. Immediately following a short stint in the US, Charters was chosen to work on documentaries in Toronto for a Canadian Network. Read More on YouTube

The new Jag35 Shoulder Rig will be shipping by the middle of the month (June 2010) and I have been fortunate to get an early unit to review.
Over the next couple of weeks I will be using the Jag35 Shoulder Rig and writing my review based on in-the-field real-world use. For now I have created a preview video for those of who considering this new rig.
You can also use (and purchase) the shoulder rig without the cage unit. While I never got around to demonstrating this in the video all you would have to do is mount the camera or quick-release plate directly to the should rig platform instead of mounting the cage.

The Above video shows some information about how I modified a cheap Targus Monopod into a very lightweight portable DIY Camera Stabilizer for my 5D Mark II and 7D to shoot video. This obviously will work for any DSLR and if you want to modify the head into one that flips into Portrait mode, i'm sure it would be a great traveling BodyPod for Photographers too. Remember, this DIY is to 'enhance' practicality of Monopod use while still maintaining full functionality. This is not a 'flying' stabilizer.
Here's the Problem:::
Monopods are great and much lighter to travel with than a Tripod. For some reason though, it sucked having to carry one around because I could never get it to fit into a backpack. I searched and searched and searched for a Monopod that could fold up very short, was lightweight, but could still support my camera when extended. The biggest reason Monopods aren't very compact is because 'When Extended, it should at least be Eye-Level". How compact can you get a Monopod and still get it to be Eye-Level??
My Solution:::
So after a bit of thought and a problem I ran into while shooting video in a Vegas Night Club, I came up with the idea of Cutting a Monopod in half and using a Sling as the support foundation. Straps have long been a great way of support in Shooting Photos, Videos, or even in Rifles. By removing the foot of the Monopod and adding an Eye Screw from Home Depot it was very simple to mount a quick release luggage strap. I could have stopped there, this was pretty nice already, but since I didn't need a Monopod to extend from the Ground to Eye-Level, why not cut it shorter. All I needed was from the hip to Eye-Level. Modifying the Monopod I had was very simple. I slid the foam grip down and found 3 tiny screws. I removed the screws and the head came right off. I measured the length I wanted and cut the Monopod (basically in half). Reattached the Head on and that was pretty much it!!
I went from a 22" folded Monopod to about 10" inches. Now this item travels in Stealth no matter where I go and for the first time ever, I finally have a Monopod that fits inside a backpack. Can't beat that for 15 bucks......
I posted a bit more information including Parts and photos at cheesycam.com/?p=93
I was bored, collected a few parts from Home Depot and decided to hack up a quick DIY Offset Shoulder rig. Since DSLR's don't have the flip out LCD option, placement of the ViewFinder needs to be offset. I also added some weights to the rear to help balance things out and it won't feel so heavy on the hands. With the 5D and that Lens it takes a few weights, but for a Canon 550D or T2i you'd probably need a lot less. Posted by Username: emmagination on Vimeo

Garret Brown's original Steadicam® is an icon that revolutionized filmmaking. Being the first and the best, it naturally and justifiably commands a premium price. It is for this reason that homemade DIY Flying Camera Supports have been around since at least 1977, just one short year after Mr. Brown's invention.
With this tradition in mind, I present the two fundamental principles behind the Steadicam and show you how to build your own Flying Camera Support.
