So if I was to hook up a DVD player via HDMI to my VIZIO TV, and run the SPYDER on the VIZIO monitor, then calibrate accordingly. Would my monitor be accurate when running via HDMI from my computer (FCP or Vegas 8)?

Or, since it’s coming from a different device for calibration purposes (DVD via HDMI instead of computer via HDMI) will the image shift and look different.

Thanks,

Trust me you’ll love it, and be up and running in no time at all.
BTW, mention to Danny that you heard about it from me (Michael Liebergot) as I try to let him know that I am spreading the word of his great products.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about usage or setup.

Happy shooting and happy holidays,

Currently you can only purchase it from Israel from their website.

Right now because of it’s versatility, portability, and solid construction, I would recommend it over the DVRig Pro. Especially if you are using smaller cameras like a DVX200, PD170, Z1U etc.

Just so you know Danny Natovitch the owner is fantastic to work with.
If you need anything that he currently doesn’t make for your rig, you can just shoot him an email and he’ll make a prototype part for you. He really does go out of his way for people.

If you like, I have posted some pics on my website as well of my setups using the Multi rig. Just so you know that was with a fully loaded rig (wireless, PagC6 light, and Rode NTG-2 shotgun mic) using my VX2100. I have since purchased a PD170 and my setup is not even lighter and smaller than what’s posted, as I no longer need the Beachtek XLR box, and can mount the my mic, light, and wireless directly on the camera now, so the grip extender that is attached to my left grip (holding my shotgun), is not needed, thus freeing up all of my handles to work with.

You can see more streamlined setups on the dvtec website, but as I said mine is fully loaded up, as much as I would need for an entire day of shooting and never have a need to attach or detach anything from my camera.

Here’s my site pics.

I ahve used and swore by my DVRig Pro. As Doug said earlier, it’s not a steady cam but you can get smoth shots with it, and you can get extremely steady shots (not as steady as a tripod, but more steady than a monopod).
The main advantage if the DVRig over a monopod is the ability to reframe your shots at a moments notice as well as either go low profile to overhead without a blip.
Oh and best of all you can mount the rig on a tripod or shoot handheld fatigue free all day long.

However, afetr saying this, I would suggest that you take a serious look at the new DvMulti Rig also from DVTec (makers of the DVRig Pro).
The shooting configurations of this thing are endless, low profile, fig rig style, DVRig Pro style, tripod shooting, fig rig handheld with support pod, and more. All of this again is effortless and fatigue free.

You can even keep it attached to the bottom of you camera and fold it up to be placed in your camera bag.
Lets see any support device do this.

Tkae a look at it here:

Currently you can only order from the DVTEc site as the product is new and only available when ordering from their website.

It’s not awkward at all when using on a tripod.
You just use the pan bar like normal and you ahve no balance issue.
I also use it with my DVRig Pro and have no issues as well. A quick release plate attaches to the bottom of the bracket to function like mornal.

I am able to switch between my monopod, tripod and dvrig by using the same quick release assembly.

However a Mighty Wondercan Mini Rover (It’s a handgrip that attaches to the base of the camera and creates a handle to grip with, the shotgun is attached to the top of the handgrip and the micro 32 transmmitter is clipped to the bracket.
I prefer this to having the micro32 attached to my camera.

Here’s the grip.

I contacted Samson directly and asked them if I could purchase a spare belt clip for the Micro 32.
They sent me one free of charge.
