Does anyone know if this rig would work with the Canon C100? I bought this for my 5D but recently changed cameras.

Yes, I'm almost certain a c100 will be more than fine on the rig. Not to big of a camera body itself. The only issue I see you having is rail length, but fotodiox includes to extra rails that I applied to the current ones for about another 4 inches in length. The matte box may not be able to go high enough. I'm sure you will be satisfied thoigh

i have a Panasonic GH4 works fine... it seems to be adjustable enough to fit most cameras.

I am sorry, but I have only experience with on a Canon 5D. This flash is designed to be compatible with Canon cameras (hence the "C" in the model name). It does work beautifully, just like a built-in flash. If you can get one compatible with Fuji, I am sure you would be happy with it. Hope this helps!

Hey Pablo Thanks for the email. Yes the Canon 5D mk II will work perfectly with this rig :). Dont forget to add a lens gear to your order to use the follow focus. Hope that helps All the best, Tom

I've used it on a C100 and it's fine, no issues. I've also worked with it on a Red Epic at 4k and it's also fine. You will not notice any difference between using it on say a 60d or a C300.

I'm using SL1 (100D) and as I know the spec and sensor and everything of T5 are almost exactly the same as SL1. It works well on SL1, so does T5, I think

I'm using it with a digital T4i, not a film camera, but as far as i know if it's a standard slr that takes interchangable canon lenses it should work. The one thing to know is that it's a manual lens set up, so must use manual focus, iso, shutter and aperture settings to work well. And of course a tripod.

I have used this slider with some beasty rigs (5D Mk. II, batt grip, rod & rails, lens) and it has worked fine. I think the biggest trick is making sure the camera/lens combo is balanced properly; you don't want it too front-heavy or else it will stutter as you try to slide it. For a long lens like you've mentioned, I would definitely recommend mounting to the tripod collar on the lens itself. If you're using a heavy lens that doesn't have a collar, consider mounting the camera on a rod & rail system or a bracket of sorts that moves the center of gravity as close as possible to being over the slider block.

If you get the proper adapter. I was using mine with a 1000d, and upgraded to a 5d. I had to spend 3 bucks for the cord to plug it into the camera and use it as a remote trigger. It will still function as is for a remote flash though.

All I have is a T3i and it works fine but it should not matter what camera you are using, if your T5i uses battery part number LP-E8 then it should work just fine. a few cameras use this part number. look at your battery or the camera manual or online under "specifications". I just checked it out for you on the Canon site and it says that the T5i uses the LP-E8 battery so this one should work just fine :)

I've used the Canon Elura 100 with the SLR (not the Zoom), without adding additional hardware. Worked fine. I also straightened out the legs, used one as a forward handle, and used the other two legs to steady the camera against my chest or shoulder when I was handholding the camera. Made for a nice impromptu steadicam effect while traipsing all over the wilds of the central Philippines.

I had problems with this device and returned it to Amazon. And I intended on using it with a Canon 7D and 6D battery which is the same. Hope this helps!

The only problem that you might have is that the 5D is a full frame sensor. It works fine with the APS sensors, but you may get some vignette.

I have a Canon 7D, and it works great with it. the lens gear that comes with it works OK. I purchased some Zacuto gears that fit a little more low profile, and the Fotga matches up nicely.

Shouldn't be a problem, the key is getting it balanced. I haven't used mine much because I purchased a "steady-cam" type vest. Except my video camera is not heavy enough. The Glidecam HD-1000 should work fine with the Canon 5D Mark III.

Hey Jody! Well the rig should work on all DSLRs (I have it and it seems to be very adjustable). However, the focusing component on it-the part that makes it a good deal- definitely doesn't work on all lenses. Any lens with a moving focus ring (most kit lenses), any lens with a focus ring on its end (Canon 50mm 1.8 is what I used) and most likely any lens with a really stiff focus action will end up being a major, major hassle ( like yelling at your lens bad). If you can do without the focusing component, I'd recommend a different rig.

I am using it with my 5D Mark II. It works fine for me. Not sure about older models.

It works with my 70D, so I'm sure it will work with a 5D. As a flash in M mode, this is just as good if not better than canon for the money. The ETTL on this flash sucks though which is what I bought it for. when I do shows and event photography id rather let the camera and flash work together rather than have different exposures for groups scenes.
