  1. I'm shooting with the C300 with Zeiss Primes using a Vokas shoulder mount and possibly an Easyrig...

     

    Easyrig will certainly help. Since you're shooting with the C300... canon makes some great image stabilized glass... the 70-200 2.8L II IS, is a work of art (pretty cheap to rent as well). You can literally go handheld (static) at 200mm. Gives you a good range to play with and the image stabilization will certainly knock down a lot of the unwanted jitters... that and warp stabilizer.

    This is a battery powered 5600k led ring light... this hits all your specs if price/rental availability isn't an issue. But I agree with above, a 2k gennie with a joker 400/800 will certainly get what you want in the par configuration... more light is almost always better than less, in my experience.

     

    I used this doing something similar but had the ring light on camera, 2x400w UV blacklights, 2xfogmachines , 1x2000w putt putt mounted on a golf cart... we were shooting a 5k race at night with glow in the dark paint in slow motion with the red epic at 240fps close to wide open on a bunch of Canon L primes. It worked out okay, but as previously suggested in this threat, a joker bug 400/800 would have been a better option (electric ballast). Night + Super Slow Mo + Golf Cart + blacklights = nightmare. Anyway, good luck!

  3. I can't speak to the exact meters you've listed, however, I can say I've been extremely pleased with the Sekonic L-758cine .... is it pricey? Yes. But, the logic behind it is buy this bad boy once and you have an all in one calibrated do-no-wrong meter that will work for decades. It's an investment, and one well worth it, in my opinion.
