Seems to work well

Rig is coming along nicely. Support wire made and tested with a cardboard upright Hopefully i can finish the carbon upright next week

4 second exposure.

You got skills buddy

looks really good, thanks for the pdf on how to build the pole. how do you go about fitting the camera to the end?

Use a superclamp and most normally use a Manfrotto Magic Arm. They have a bit that screws into the bottom of the camera like a normal tripod would

excellent setup micky, fairplay for doing it on your drive too

Coop3r also have a look at this thread. Tons of pages of info

Jack testing on the driveway is easiest. Can easily change things and try multipull ideas.

Big Rig!

6.4m carbon rig by Micky Photography, on Flickr

6.4meters......... Jesus!!!!!

It is quite long

that's mental

looks really good my friend. Reason I'm interested is i kinda work in this industry. After you (the photographer) has taken all the photos they get given to our company and we retouch the rig out and ad and remove elements to make the photos look sweet.

Just the other day i worked on a lexus shot that had a 12.4m rig so your getting there

Thanks Rob. Did get a few odd looks

Coop3r maybe we should go into business I'd love to have access to one of those big rigs just to have a play. They are expensive though. You could buy a new ST for less.

Out of interest could you give me a link to your company? pm me if you prefer.
