I purchased the Varavon CF Rods from the Varavon Special Deals.
I feel the need to criticise them .. in a big way (not).
If I align the 'V' logos on the end stops to be aesthetically pleasing (vertical and parallel) at the front of the rig, the logos at the rear are not aligned.
Seriously, they are smooth as, hell light, and look cool.
Every piece of rig I have fits and slides smoothly.
One rod had a little bit of excess glue at the end stop .. 15 seconds with a piece of 1200 grit sand paper.
I got the Varavon CF Rods about a week ago.
My only criticism, and it's a biggie (not) .. if I make the 'V' logo look aesthetically pleasing (vertical and parallel) at the front of the rig .. they're not aesthetically the same at the back.
That's a joke, btw. Incredible value again from Varavon.
@vicharris, check out the Varavon hihat/riser. It allows you to use ball head to level, and it's great bolted to a piece of wood.
And dear lord when u get them take some end stoppers off of me - ordered 8 got 250 lol
So did anyone try rods from carbon-composite.com? I'm planning to replace my rig's aluminum rods to carbon ones to make it more light.
Mediahalo had also quite good deal but most of the rods are out of stock.
