Q: 1. can i use this on a devin graham glidecam and a jib? also, can you reccomend the kind of cables i need if i were to use this on a 8ft jib. thanks

A: Hi Divine - yes, it should work fine! we don't have direct experience with the glidecam, but many customers use it with steadicam, which works the same. Remember you'll need a small lightweight battery, check out our new lp-e6 battery adapter, which is about to be released (you will want to ask for part number 2-178-0001)this bundle is great for that. For a jib you'll want a longer cable, which we can make to size, but you will need to contact us at redrock micro direct for that cable. Everything else is available here.

Q: 2. How can i mount this cage on tri pod? The two 1/4 holes isn't center of lens gravity so it may cause problem when panning or moving the head it slef. Is there any part that can merge the two holes into one?

A: It's off center a bit, but I haven't had any problems with it using a standard tripod piece screwed into one hole on the bottom. I use a fairly heavy duty Manfrotto and there's no tipping issues or anything and I'm using a nice sized EFV as well. I actually really love this cage and recommend it.

Q: 3. I'm wondering with this wireless follow focus on a movi M5 with a Gh4 if it would be too front heavy for it to work properly with Veydra lenses. Would I just be wasting my money?

A: Hi Matt - great question. The microRemote is the smallest and lightest remote available, and should be no problem with the setup you describedc. we've rigged DSLRs in similar setups. we've used veydra a lot too with good resultsWeight balancing will be the thing to make this sing. you'll want to keep things low, and with the heavier veydra lens, try mounting the basestation behind or beneath the camera to offset that weight as much as you can. Fortunately the GH4 isn't a very heavy camera. hope that helps

Q: 4. Does this kit come with the needed cables? Also if I want to use this with a Movi Pro and the Freefly remote is there anything else I would need beyond this kit?

A: Depends on the Movi. We use this with our Movi M5 and Movi controller, less stuff needed for the new Movi Pro. You will probably need to order a receiver for your remote fro Freefly if it is an older Movi. They work very well but this is the bottom of the barrel for wireless focus so don't expect to film with this and sound. We produce only stock footage without audio. If I had to be recording audio this motor is pretty noisy.

Q: 5. Would one be able to use two of these on a digital cine lens? One to control the Iris and one to control the Focus?
