Jonathan Spear Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 (edited) Hey all, Got my first "real" shoot coming up this spring. 15 minute short, 35mm. We're getting a lighting kit from a friend and are going to build most of our camera rigs (we're building a 6 foot crane atm). we're a 10 person crew, mostly friends and former bandmates, and we'll be shooting most of our exteriors in a heavily forested area, day-for-night, interiors at a local studio. shooting ratio will be about 7:1 - we have a few short ends and recans left over from earlier projects. I own a Beaulieu R-16, but we're opting for 35mm on this one. It's an extremely visual story so clarity, excellent picture quality and low grain are a must - as a festivle screening seems to be the general "goal" of our production crew. Sadly, I can't afford to buy or rent a camera but I am offering a trade if anyone's interested: What I'm offering (all items in great cond.): --------------------------- 1. Beaulieu R-16 + 3 c-mount lenses + pistol grip + eye cap (needs new battery, charger = about 125$ at www.duallcamera.com) 2. Canon EOS to c-mount adaptor (for 35mm still lenses on the Beaulieu) 3. Canon Rebel Ti SLR + 28-90mm f/4.5-5.6 Canon zoom lens 4. Canon EOS AF 50mm f/1.8 lens 5. Tamron 70-300mm Macro 1:2 lens 6. Assortment of filters 7. A Gameboy Advance SP + 4 games 8. A Sony Playstation 2 + 4 games + accesories + Network adaptor What I need (all items in great cond.): ------------------------- 1. A Konvas 2M body + crystal motor + eye piece 2. 5-8 primes (22mm-150mm) 3. mattebox w/mattes and support + filters 4. battery + charger + power cables 5. 2 x 400' or 200' mags 6. decent tripod + fluid head 7. carrying case/s 8. video tap (if possible) In other words, your full basic Ebay Konvas 2M kit. I've asked Ebay sellers, but no one seems to be interested in a trade... they just want greens :( . And most of the Konvas deals on Ebay are from Eastern Europe / Russia and they can charge up to 800$/shipping charges ( <_< !!!). I'll be happy to answer any and all questions that come up. If anyone is trying to get rid of a 35mm or S16 package besides a Konvas 2M and is willing to trade for the items listed above, feel free to P.M. me, write me here or drop me an email at: whimsicg@yahoo.com If you want to check my e-bay feedback, my e-bay nick is: jon999666 Mille grazi, Jon Edited February 16, 2005 by TSM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rafael Pankratau Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 I don't want to trade too, but may be you have enough time to sell your equipment and raise necessary cash. Please look at this Konvas-2M outfit: http://rafcamera.com/mc/konvas/2m/2m_used.htm Also, I have great tripods (but they costs almost same as the camera): 7ShKS Shipping charge will be $350 for the camera or $650 for the camera+tripod. Feel free to contact me if you interested. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Spear Posted March 16, 2005 Author Share Posted March 16, 2005 Hey Rafael, Sheesh. That's the kit alright. I seriously wish I had more $$$, but I don't -- hence the trade. What a catch-22.. :( But thanks anyway... I appreciate the offer and you have a very cool website. -Jonathan S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
