These handles are crazy fun. Since the new GoPro HD Hero2 supports HDMI output, it's possible to create a top handle for a low flying GoPro with an external monitor. A setup that skateboarders love to shoot with.

I just posted the availability of these new P&C Pistol Grip handles late last night and we didn't expect such a response. The P&C website has been updated to 'out of stock' status. Until we get more stock, you could still grab one with a small amount of remaining inventory available at eBay and Amazon (below).

Post author@Ben - There is no hot shoe on this setup. It's threaded at every point. Also the GoPro and Z-EVF is pretty robust https://vimeo.com/22084429

kind of bummed out that I missed out on this.

Post author@J Toha - The grips sold out by the afternoon everywhere... Hopefully in a week or so we'll get a few more in stock.

Emm, has Amazon run out? The link you provided gave way to Pico flex dolly. Tried searching but didn't get any hit there.

Post author@ronjbase - I'm hoping we could see a few more in about a week. Follow me on Twitter for updates.

@Serge... great analogy and comparison. lol Ordered the 2 handles and 11 friction arm since I had planned on getting another arm anyways...saved a few bucks. Seems the pistol grips are sold out everywhere. o_O

Careful with saying things like "an idea that will change the way the market looks at building 15mm rigs"
None of us who love your site want to see you make the same mistake as others recently with their hyperbole (I'm looking at you FCPX, RED, Canon C300 etc.) LOL
Look forward to seeing the new products regardless of whether they bring world peace or cure cancer! 🙂

@Emm- I'm excited, cant wait! thanks.

Post author@Skeleto - Another slightly larger dolly will be announced next week. Possibly two different cages will be announced soon too (different price points), oh and wait till you see what comes next. It's an idea that I think will change the way the market looks at building 15mm based rigs...

When is the P&C Cage and Dolly coming out?!?

It's like putting butter on $80 lobster tails... It works!

Yep, I got 2 earlier today... looking forward to using them.

Post author@Joe Horvath - Is that the same as like putting a Rolex on my wrist? LOL.

This is awesome, but there is something not right about putting a $750 monitor on a $300 camera.
