Is that the Switronix 30 Watt portable light? How do you like it?

As for a follow focus on the switronix bracket, can't do it unless you put a rod system on it. I'm thinking of picking up a zacuto's mini baseplate and attaching it to the rig. It's lke $540, but still between that and the dslr-pro bracket, I'm still at $800, and it functions the same in my opinion as the Zacuto marksman which is over $2k.

As for the light, yes; I picked up the switronix torchled 50 a few weeks ago at b&h.

I might try to have a machine guy near me make something like a mini baseplate too, so I'll see. I'm just looking for a way to mount rods
