11Apr Used Gear Watch: ikan Elements DSLR Cage
Ikan makes a lot of random equipment including DSLR Rigs and friction follow focus adapters. I’m not a huge fan of their DLSR Rig’s handle design, but the rigs are all metal and as with anything else, for the right price it can be a pretty good deal.
Ikan’s Super Fly DSLR Rig alone will set you back around $300 and the Ikan Friction follow focus would add another $200 to the kit. Right now this setup, including everything above is listed at 99 cents plus $20 shipping used. I’m sure the ending auction price will be higher, but if the kit stays under $200 it’s still a very good deal. 6 days left, so if you’re interested, keep an eye on the auction.

I shot a short with this exact kit. Its pretty sweet for a run and gun set up. We now have a quick release on our slider and tripod that this mounts to. Makes me want to buy one more to have a dual set up for bigger shoots.
