    Not a good Fit

      Comments about Cavision RS-15IIMQR Rod Support System Reversed:

      I tried this with a Panasonic GH2 DSLR, but the support platform is just too long. The camera itself is about an inch thick but the Cavision Rods Base is 3-4 inches long so you can't get a follow focus unit close enough to the camera, especially with shorter lenses.

      If FF or getting other attachments close to the camera isn't necessary it may work fine. The build quality is good. However, it also sits the camera fairly low so mattebox compatibility was an issue too.

        Comments about Cavision RS-15IIMQR Rod Support System Reversed:

        I really like my new shoulder Rig from Canavision with my Canon 7D. I bought the shoulder rig separately, because I didn't wan't the 8x viewfinder. I don't know why I should pay more. The easy clip could be better engineered, but it does the job for me. It is solid material. I don't feel is going to fall appart.

          Comments about Cavision RS-15IIMQR Rod Support System Reversed:

          The rods are a little too short when you use it with the shoulder pad and the dual handgrips. For me it's OK, but I've got a friend who would have prefer longer ones. It depends on the lenght of your arms.
          The little support is very useful, I use it to support my Canon 70-200.
          Je me sert du petit support comme support pour mon zoom 70-200.
          Les tiges sont peut être un peu courtes quand on est à l'épaule. Pour moi ça va parce que j'ai des petits bras. Et je ne mets pas de pare-soleil.

              I got this for the base of a DSLR rig with the 4x4 cavision mattebox. It's very light and strong. The quick release is also nifty.

                  I use this with a Letus 35 and HMC-150. The rods included work but are just barely long enough.

                    Comments about Cavision RS-15IIMQR Rod Support System Reversed:

                    This thing is super solid and looks great with the black and carbon fiber. Its the perfect size for a DSLR video user. Its just the right size to fit your matte box and follow focus and isnt so big you are dying carrying it around or its just too bulky to use easily.

                    This is the reversed version of this rail system...Its better for small cameras like DSLRs but it costs about 25% more than the regular one...Thats kind of annoying when its essentially the same thing.

                    I got the CAVISION 3x3 wide matte box and it mounts on the from bracket perfectly, and the price was definitely right compared to all the other insanely priced matte boxes out there.

                      We shoot on a weekly bases for a nationally syndicated tv show. I have used Cavision products for years and have found them to be rugged and well manufactured. I will not say they are the best, but you have to pay a lot more to get much better. We have already used this support plate on about four shoots and I have been very impressed. It is well designed and the quick release plate comes in very handy. It is well worth the few extra dollars to buy the Cavision over the over sees knock-offs.
