I did the same kind if search a while ago and when I was decide to buy one from B&H I realized they were back ordered on the only stepDown ring 30-37 they carry.... well I guess I just have to wait now.... -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute. It only functions when it's open."

Yes,It's another way to release the wings. It is a system Jari and I have been goofing with for some time. It works rather nicely and completely frees your arms in seconds. Is it similar than the system used on the European suits? One handle on you chest that free both arms? Looking at the Birdman website it looks like the suit performance will be between the GTI and S3... am I correct? -- Renaud -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute.

Because there is no DBox for the HC-85.... -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute. It only functions when it's open."

I do use a stroboframe on my flattop for my HC85 and put the top part of the old bonehead shell on top. It's works good the only cons is that you have to unscrew the plate to change tapes. -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute. It only functions when it's open."

They are tall skinny guys and some who are more bulky (without talking about skills) -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute. It only functions when it's open."

Not necessarly on the Video but maybe on the computer import.... I tried by just holding the lens and it looks good... But maybe with the image stabilization the corner will show up... I'll let you know after testing. -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute. It only functions when it's open."

I was planing on going and then change in plan I'll be skiing instead For the step down ring I just found one on B&H web site: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=productlist&A=details&Q=&sku=357554&is=REG Don't know if any other Hollister peeps will show up for the Eloy boogie... -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute.

Just by holding the lens in front of the camcorder I can tell you it works just fine, the point is where can I find such a step up ring. I don't want to end up using gaffers tape only Thanks -- Renaud -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute. It only functions when it's open."

Yes, that's it! -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute. It only functions when it's open."

Hi I'm looking for a step up ring to go from a lens 30mm on a camcorder 37mm. I already have the opposite 37mm to 30mm but can't find 30mm to 37mm. If some of you know where to find this let me know, thanks!

I use a 0.5 and 0.45 for the Camcorder and the lens that come standard with the Canon Rebel EOS. I also use an old Cameye and the only thing that will not work is the option to turn on the camcorder after turning it off... But every thing else work just fine. I didn't really look into the fader option but I imagine they can't be less that what is in the previous models...

I use it on a Flat Top Pro. I'm really happy with it except that the battery are different, the video output plug is different, the charger plug is different.... than my other sony camera (PC101). But it's a great camera and the still doesn't get in the way if you don't go for a .42 lens. They are no DBox available for it yet ... And I notice the battery burn fast they announce 120 minutes on the p50 and I only get 70minutes. They announce 240minutes on the p70 and I only got 180minutes.... Any one else got same results ?? -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute. It only functions when it's open."

Very weak camera if you compare it to the old version PC9. Had only problems with it... touch screen broke... then lanc port.... May be I wasn't lucky... but do a search I'm not the only one. -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute. It only functions when it's open."

Sound's like a good design but don't want ot be the test jumper -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute. It only functions when it's open."

Why would 5 cell would open more on heading? Is it because they are less chances that the sides cells inflate before the center cell Why not creating a 7 cell with the two external (outside) cells closed. They would only inflate with vents and/or pressurized from the 5 center cells. Does it make sense? Would this kind of design worked? -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute.

I wonder if I could trade my TRV box for the new HC -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute. It only functions when it's open."

Have you seen any DBox for the Sony HC85 not the trv80 ? -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute. It only functions when it's open."

I don't really agree. We cannot look at only one or two examples. And BTW I hope not a lot of people base with old worn out lines... I think looking at skydiving tandems confirm a little my theory. Even if tension knots are not that frequent I think it's worth to look at, one it's too many when you're under this canopy . My self only had one tension knot and it was skydiving under a very old F111, and I manage to clear it, so I'm no reference. Just trying to see if there is any research on this or ideas how to reduce the risk. Thanks for comments. -- Renaud -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute. It only functions when it's open."

I had some thoughts on tension knots. And here are some stuff I thought. Let me know what you think. I notice that some canopy lines are more rigid and slippery than other. Especially the black ones. Maybe I'm wrong here but it looks like there is a coating on the black ones. Anyway my though was that if the lines a more rigid and more slippery that maybe reduce the risk of getting a tension knot. If there are actually no difference right now between lines maybe it will be a good idea to coat the lines in that purpose. Of course that will affect the friction on the slider too and my get harder opening (testing will probably confirm that). So what are you thoughts on that....

Guess what..... a little bit more than a year later my touch screen doesn't work any more... The screen is not black but the touch screen doesn't react any more to my gentle fingers.... And my lanc port is flaky.... I'm getting really upset right now. -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute. It only functions when it's open."
