Production Rig for T2i at DVinfo.net

Oliver Darden · January 18th, 2011, 02:47 PM

I have a budget of around $1000 and I'm looking for a way to shoot hand-held / shoulder mounted with a focus puller on my Canon T2i. Can anyone recommend a setup to fit my budget?

Here are 3 kits I've found that I like although the Redrock is out of my budget:
indiSYSTEM - DSLRsm Package
Redrock Micro - DSLR Field Cinema Bundle

that chart is absolute garbage; rating a system based on aesthetics is bad enough, but they actually rated the companies based on their country of origin; just because a company is american does not instantly make it twice as good as another company (it is literally rated 6 points for US companies and 3 points for non-usa based companies; thats pretty broad).

also it would appear they have not used any of these rigs or done any comparisons; just user generated 'ratings'. aside from a bunch of pictures clearly lifted from vendors' websites, there is no useful information at all.

I think I like the redrock. I might just save up and get that rig.
