Thanks! Often I'm just as interested in the BTS views than the image itself.
If you mean the rig itself, it's usually the same for every one of my shoots. The K-1 is on a Manfrotto 3-way-pan-tilt head with the RC4 quick release (great quick release) which again is on a Cullmann Magenesit 525 tripod. This tripod is worth a praise: Light, stable and affordable. The Manfrotto 055 was to wobbly and heavy, but I still use it as a stand for my laptop which I tether into. I also connect the K-1 to external power.
The 3-way-head is great but sometimes I bump into those handles, so for the next shoot I'll try the Benro 3-way geared head which has very short handles.
