DSLR RIG REVIEW

by Sebastian WöberJanuary 23^rd, 2010

Chrosziel Tripod Setup

This rig is aimed at professionals and we can recommend it to those. While the base plate and follow focus leave some wishes open, they still serve their purpose and can make shooters and camera assistants sufficiently happy. We think the real killer here is the matte box. It’s higher priced than most other matte boxes we tested, but I assure you it will be your friend on a professional studio shoot. It might get a bit heavy when used handheld, but most of us will be able to live with that. We really recommend this one if you work professionally, and use matte boxes a lot. Although expensive, we still think the value/price rating is, OK
