I'm considering a carbon boom, and found what seems to be a good deal, and thought I'd share it with you guys. There's a store on ebay based in hong kong that sells carbon tubes, and i've bought some smaller stuff from them before to build a shoulder rig and a steadicam out of. It seems to be of good quality. -Jayson- my flickr

I know i'll still need to get the ferrules, but otherwise I can get a 4m, 45mm OD boom for $254 shipped. links: 50mm http://compare.ebay.com …edPriceItemTypes&var=sbar 45mm http://compare.ebay.com …edPriceItemTypes&var=sbar Not much point in getting carbon unless you're going further than 5m IMO GFWilliams Automotive Photography

I figured I might as well take 2 steps up for a marginal price difference instead of just one step and go with AL conduit. the 4M was just for an example, anyway.  1025796_432119546895222_740915222_o by Jcareyphoto, on FlickrI was key grip/gaffer, and had to emulate a train station/street light. suction cup on the window, two 4-ft. pieces of my steel boom, and a pair of super clamps on the electrical conduit. the light was held with another super clamp and a homemade stud. here's the result (just from my behind the scenes camera, the actual scene looks way better)  1040508_432119220228588_1872335790_o by Jcareyphoto, on Flickrand if you want to check it out, here's a link to the project: https://www.facebook.com/shadowboundseries -Jayson- my flickr

Even at that thickness you will still get some bend in the boom. I'm well over $2,000 USD in my boom alone, just because the last section I had made was hand laid - it tapers in thickness from end to end to increase rigidity and I only use that section when I'm going the full 20-feet. No CP filter for that one, just an ND and GND.
