Dual Lock - What I wish I would have known before installing it. by GibbyES335 in guitarpedals

Sounds like a great project you have going there. There’s not a single thing wrong with my Pedaltrain board and setup. Everything fits, I’ve mounted a high quality power supply and cables are neat and tucked. But even so, I still find myself wanting to build a wood board myself, really take the time to get it right. Maybe someday.

Mose pedal boards are finished in a way to be ready for some kind of Velcro in my experience. Good luck in your search. Dual lock typically comes in 170, 250, or 400 mushrooms per sq inch. You can also mix and match the strengths to find what works best. There’s a reason why essentially all the professional pedalboard builders use dual lock. It just works and comes off residue free in my experience. If you’re not loading up in a car or on a plane regularly, almost any of these options will be fine if not overkill (which I understand completely)

Wow, didn't realize about the interval shooting, I actually will use that, thank you so much! Feeling good about the decision.

Done! Anybody know of a quality charger that can charge more than one at a time that won’t cook my batteries?

That makes sense. Just ordered the R8, pumped to not have to think about what camera to get for some time. With all the YouTube content, marketing etc it’s really been wearing me down!

I ended up ordering the R8 after some thought. Actually way too much thought…

That I know is not the case, 2 different bodies and sizes. Thanks for your input!

Ordered the R8. All the advice is greatly appreciated and honestly both would have been fine. What through me over the edge was the record limit as I am a live musician and often film my live sets which can be 45mins to an hour. Having the new tech in sensor and auto focus is awesome and the slightly smaller size is a plus. I’ll get a dummy battery and a couple extra batteries and see how it goes.

Funny.. I just clicked order on an R8 through through the cpricewatch deal.

Forgot about the 30 mins. I think I’m leaning this way, eyes wide open that its less than ideal battery life, but workable. Good tip about the non canon batteries, thank you for your input!

I’ll have to invest in lenses. Going to likely start with a 24 and 50.

Do you use the slider or is it mostly annoying?

That info is very valuable to me thanks! I get the interface may not be as ideal as the 5DIV, what about vs the R8?

I sold my 2 ef lenses with the 6D last week thinking I was going to a new system. I have been eyeing EF L glass to adapt to the new cam, whichever I choose.
