nice footage.
You use the Hague and hv20 in a really smooth way.
Thanks for showing Hague Footage on Hv20.
Looks like the Hague can take the weight of the Raynox WA, what raynox model to you have 6600 or 7000. I figure it's probably the 6600, that's the one I have. The 7000 would weigh a lot more. I'm not sure if the Hague can handle a rodes VM and a raynox 6600WA on a Hv20. I ordered the optional centering plate that gives more options for centering the extra weight.

Thanks! I have the 52mm 6600HD Raynoxx WA. I've tried balancing the MMC with the Rode VideoMic, but havent had any luck....In the meantime I'll be practicing alot with this setup!

Great we have the same setup!
When I get the centering plate, I'll let you know if it helps in handling the Rode's VM.
Here is the link to the MMCP- Hague mini motion-cam balance CORRECTION PLATE. I'm hoping it will correct the problem with the rodes VM.

Just got the hague today and I haven't been able to balance the 6600HD raynox WA with it yet.
I even tried the centering plate with no luck.
It works great without WA but HOW did you balance it with the WA. How many weights, any tips?
Also, having made some clips with the Hague today I can appreciate your footage even more. You got the hang of it!

Sure -- It took a little while to set up, but I also have the large BP-2L24H battery to balance the weight of the WA on the front. I used all of the weights and had to balance with the lcd screen folded out. Also, I have the canon xh-a1 lens hood on the raynox WA lens. Hope this helps and Good luck!!

Chinchek!
I had a Mercury 52mm .45 WA around and was able to balance it with 8 Big Washers using the Centering Plate.
It's good to know what I need to get if I want the 6600 WA to work with the hague.
I'm not sure if I will do much shooting with the Mercury WA since 90 percent of stuff is usually done with just HV20 with UV or Polarizer lens, but it's good to know I could do it using the Hague.
I'm off to try to shoot a walk around the park using the Hague.
I look forward to your next production.
You are way ahead of me in Movie Making , you add music and slow mo effects and lots of other stuff !
I just point and shoot! :)
And hope 5 or 10 percent of it looks ok on screen!
