Thanks,
I'll be posting another pic at the end of december when I got a few more goodies on her.
Don't know why but I didn't put my 17mm tilt/shift in the picture. Oh well, in a month I'll have everything and take another pic.

Its a little easier for me, this is my job 
However, sometimes I wish I had more time to go shoot just for the love of photography.

Arca-Swiss RM3Di and Factum
Arca came in. Pics of the the RM3Di and Factum with 32HR and 35XL. Still awaiting the 60XL and Rotamount.
The RM3Di has a few improvements. Also pictured here with the handgrip extension.
Thanks again for all your help and of course Doug and my dealer Walter (B3K)

Thanks for the pics of the RM3di and the Factum!
It looks like something is "missing" though. There seems to be no way to mount an eModule on the Factum. There does not seem to be any dovetail to mount one, like on the RM3di. Does Arca-Swiss supply some kind of adapter? Or, you must forego using an eModule on the Factum?

There is an adapter. If you notice, the Factum does have the RJ11 adapter for the electronic connection. This adapter, grip, and Cloud are supposed to be coming in in the next couple of weeks, but as always take that with a grain of salt. I will post once I have had my hands on them.
The Factum does need a proper grip though, so I am looking forward to what they bring out.
The Rm3di above has the optional grip extension and makes handholding it far more easier/comfortable.

Are you 100% sure about this? That Arca-Swiss will provide you with an adapter that creates a dovetail slot on it like for the RM3di? Or is it a unique version of the eModule that will only fit the factum and not the RM3di?
And if there will be an adapter, why did they do this then, when they could have just included a dovetail on the FAC body without needing an extra adapter piece?

Jagsiva, what did you do to get your Factum so quickly?
I see you ordered it just two weeks ago. I placed my order with Capture Integration on September 16, and am still waiting for mine. Did you order through Capture Integration?

David, I got mine from my local dealer in Toronto, B3K Digital. Given the small volume runs on each item, I think orders are typically batched so I could have just gotten lucky. Just check with CI, I'm sure they just as efficient.

No offense intended to Arca or Cambo artisans, nor to Leica shooters
Dan, I sure admire your TC portrait.
Thank you David. REALLY thank you.

Bought a Leica S2. "will not lust for photographic equipment for at least a while"
or so I thought until I saw this.
hate you mate
fantastic looking cameras, really drooling here

Thank you! Each one is a jewel.
But be sure to keep that S2, it's wonderful. Alpa is considering support for an S2 mount with aperture control for their new FPS camera body. The more encouragement they get the better! It'd be super to have the extra stops those S lenses offer... "S" is for superb.
Nice !.
Cambo WRS, SK47XL, DM22 (DM33 on the way
Same setup (or maybe with the SK35XL) on the edge of Tatahatso Point, Grand Canyon
What is the Lens Shade/Arm thing you are using there ?

It's called a Flare Buster. You can get various versions but basically it comes with a foot that fits a std flash mount, movable bar and clip at the end + panel for blocking the sun.
