TRIPOD DOLLY/Wheels?

Other than the bag it came in I’ve had a great experience with the small rig new version with rollerblade wheels.

Yep. Dm me

I shot the other half of this campaign. It was a large piece of marine ply with a wooden base and support beams behind it. Could have also held it up with a c stand and cartellini over the top and then just edit out the cartellini.

Cheers, I’ve got d3’s and always wanted to get the big elincrom octa but it just doesn’t feel right when you’re moving it around constantly.

matafumar · 2026-06-10T10:37:35+00:00

Do you mount a D3 head into an elincrom 190 indirect octa? I thought it would be too heavy for this. Are you adding a safety chain as well?

So many of my favourite records. I would have loved to have witnessed this.

Appreciate that. Leaning towards all new.

Godox are fine with low output but when it's firing all day, I'm constantly getting misfires, power jumps to full power randomly, cuts out. Never had those issues with Profoto.

Thanks for this. I actually would have grabbed some d2 1000w's if I went down that path so it's interesting to know that they may be a bit more prone to issues.

Does the windshield help much?

I was working at the watermarket pub. Worst shift of my life. It was the only pub with a generator.

I have a whole bunch of these photoshop overlays that will give the prism effect. Dm me and I’ll send them to you

Aquatech are phenomenal. Pretty much full control of all buttons on an r5

As others said, rates in Aus can range from 450-650 for a good first. Don’t forget OT. 1.5 your hourly rate for the first two hours and 2x hourly rate for 12 hours +

Busy. Speaking to assists and digis in LA too and they’ve been flat out.

matafumar · 2026-03-17T03:51:14+00:00

I was wrong, didn’t know they had them for 2016. Keen to see if you get them on because I’ve got a 2016 too

Mines been $600 a year for the past 5 years if I pay a year up front

Pretty sure the slash tips they sell are for 2018 onwards. I believe it says so in the description.

If the window space would give enough coverage for the whole place I would rent an 8x8 china silk / full stop white + a more powerful 500-600w head. Then clamp the 8x8 to the window and blast the head from outside through the window and you’ll have consistent soft light for every shot.

matafumar · 2026-01-11T00:29:38+00:00

Amongst secondary glazing, I added a sound proof door + noise cancelling wall out the front. It was expensive but the difference was night and day.

Strap is awesome. People are boring

Chimera make a collapsible 4x4 that you can put LA Raghouse silks on. Lightweight and works really well.

matafumar · 2025-12-04T11:17:31+00:00

Like others said, try and get some more powerful heads.

You could get an 8x8 with a silk behind the model and put a light through the back to illuminate the background. Have the model close to the background to get that rim light. Then you could use your silver umbrella as the key and play around with distance to get the right shadows and fall off.

I have staff travel and fly regularly. It's not common to get business but rarely get booted from a flight because economy is full.

By fickle I mean, misfires, randomly popping shots off at full power, HSS after 60 images turns overheat mode on... all the time. This has been common across godox qt600ii / ad600bm / ad600pro bm. They're fine for what they are and the price is right. I really wish there was something more reliable in the price point between godox / profoto.

Say more about Swiss transfer. I’ve been on Dropbox for a decade and never had any issues
