Hey Trevor,

When you use the JVC and the Micro35...you need additional shims. The shims adds an additional weight. Other small items that adds weight to the rig are as follows:
1) wireless follow focus motor
2) wireless reciever
3) shims
4) Marshall 7" HD monitor
5) Battery for JVC (because the JVC battery is horrible)
6) lens
7) The gear on the lens with Cine pitch

The above I am aware of. but what is happening to the rig, that is showing up with all this weight. in other words what is going wrong with the IIp?

It puts too much pressure on the arm that it sags. But I am not familiar with it enough to know if that can be solved or if the camera is too heavy. I know we can adjust the arm, but I need to operate it more.

We are also trying to lighten the sled.

We'll update when I know more.
