list etiquette (was: lightweight/portable QTVR setup for mountaineering/hiking)



Hey guys, where has the list etiquette gone?
 
1. 'Thank You' replies should go directly to the deserving person (we know you appreciate the help offered here)
2. Sure would be nice if everyone would clean up the replies a bit of non-related content
3. Top posting seems to be the norm here
4. Can the mods flip the Mailman switch to translate HTML to text? I don't see any content posted on this list that would suffer from being in plain text.
5. This 'laziness' makes a mess of the archives that others count on for help.
 
If no one cares, please ignore this post.
 
John

Ayrton,

Thanks.

For the 5D/Tokina107 I use the RRS MPR-1 rail - it is 152mm long

For the 5D/Nikkor10 I use the RRS MPR-113 rail - it is 113mm long

The switched to the RRS rails because they are better than the Kirk, but I still like the Kirk quick releases QRC-1 and QRC 1.75.

I had a typing error on my last url:

Hi Ayrton,

Hello Jook
First of all
let me tell you that YOU inspired me a lot !
I've always admire your work from long years back.
THANKS for giving me high standards to try to follow.
I've learned a lot with your posts.
Here in Brazil, whenever I speak with a new Client I talk about your name as THE "inspiring panographer"

Now, back to techs :-)
Thanks for all links below.
On the KIRK rails ... they have 6 different models ... which one are you using ???

Thanks and keep on the gppd wprk

Cheers

AYRTON




 

Here is the parts list from bottom to top:

JustRite brackets (the four legged thing)
JRB 300 small light stand $20.
Acratech Leveling Base $150

Bogen / Manfrotto   625 (3296) RC0 Hexagonal Quick Release Set

Bogen 300N rotator

Velbon Neo Pod 6 - I cut the tip off and added a 3/8 thread

Kirk Photo quick release clamps and rails

Really Right Stuff camera body plates

All this adds weight on the bottom but makes it more stable with a top heavy camera. The Acratech leveling base is nice for none level surfaces. The quick releases make it faster to reconfigure.

One more pano from the Great Wall:
Best,
Jook

Here is one setup I used on my trip to Beijing. For the camera rig I used RRS camera brackets and Kirk Photo rails and quick releases. As you can see the monpod is free standing with a very small footprint.

This is amazing nice !!!
Would you mind sharing some of the tricks on this setup ???

I mean ... in the bottom of the upside down monopod, there's a rotator, I think it's a Bogen one ,
BUT it has 4 "legs" to hold it free standing ...
HOW ???  
WHAT is that ??? these "legs" ?

And on the RRS L-bracket is it attached to a Kirk rail ???
I can not enter the Kirk website at all ... it says it is not valid adress ?!?!

THANKS

Ayrton



Cheers,
Jook
