09Feb Modogrip Pro – First impression
The Modogrip Pro showed up a few weeks ago, but I’ve been so tied up with other projects that I’ve just now had a chance to open the package. If you don’t remember my earlier post, the Modogrip Pro basically turns a Manfrotto 680B monopod into a dolly, slider, boom, and steady camera support. The Modogrip […]
04Dec Konova Slider Updated
I’ve been using the Konova slider for quit awhile and it’s worked great, but I’ve always wished I would have spent a little more on a slightly longer model. It always seemed like I ended up needing just a little bit more track to finish shots, and Konova recently released an update to there original slider. […]
21Nov 35mod Modogrip kickstarter project
Andrew from 35mod.com sent me an e-mail about their new Modogrip project and I must say it looks nice. You might remember 35mod from a review of their wireless camera trigger I did a few months back (check out the video and review here). The basic idea is to add wheels and handles to your […]

The Konova Slider is a great buy but I’ve gotten a number of e-mails asked if there is anything cheaper out there. The answer is yes. If […]

After having a chance to spend a little more time with the Konova Slider, I thought I would take a little time to post a few more pictures and a quick update. My good friend Amos has the DryLin® Linear Motion Camera Slider, which is considered to be one of the best DIY options for […]
01Feb More on the Dirt Cheap monitor
I’ve been getting a lot of request to see this little monitor up close. I didn’t have a chance after putting this together to film the monitor in use. So hopefully this short video address most of your questions. I will note that it’s hard to properly expose a video monitor, so the color ends […]
31Jan Konova Camera Slider
I was searching ebay a few weeks back for a few lighting supplies when I came across the Konova Slider. After looking over the pictures and reading more about it, I pulled the trigger. At a price tag of $285 this is one of the best deals I’ve seen on the market. The only thing […]
