I'd like to add the following to get my system started:
RODE Video mic
Alzo Transformer rig with handle
Rokinon 8mm UltraWide FishEye for Canon EF mount
VidPro LED-36
Canon 430 EX-II Speedlight[/QUOTE]
Hey Austin,
Great buy!
I've got the Rode mic. it works much better than the on board mic.
If you looking at getting that Alzo rig to improve hand held type steady shots I would recommend not pulling the trigger on the Alzo rig because it doesn't really do much and it is a pain to work with all of the adjustments. and it just plum not worth the price.
You should look into getting a GlideCam or FlyCam Nano. The Glidecam is a bit pricey so if your on a budget like I am all the time you should look at the Flycam. You can get some pretty smooth shots once you get the hang of it.
I use the Glidecam at work and own the Flycam personally.
