Wooden camera grips

[Jonathan]

[Somebody was making a wooden grip for their camera - I'm too lazy to find out who it was...]

So plenty of DSLRs do video now.  And people have realised that the grip on a DSLR is rubbish for video.  Eventually manufacturers will catch up.  But not s far. I was down at the track at the weekend and one of the guys had an amazing rig for his 7D.  Looked like it was mighty expensive and on the back (over hos shoulder) he actually had a weight plate from a dumbell.

Amateurs.  Wood works best - http://vimeo.com/11435910 (yes, it really does have pull focus).

[Btw, don't bother telling me movie mode has no place in a DSLR.  Because nobody cares. ]

Heath-Robinson is alive and well and walking about with a chair on his shoulder taking videos!
