Haven't checked this thread in 2-3 days. So glad you got 'em. Sending PP for one reflector.

Most orders are on their way, however I have not had a chance to count up the Complete BulkHead units available which is why I said to hold up after Lumiere's order.

Will take a final count tonight, along with remaining availability if any.

Charlie, I need one reflector for my BKhead recently received without one. I will PP this weekend.

Sorry to read about your computer problems. Does that mean that some of these orders will be delayed or did they all go out before the crash? Thanks.

Re: FS: VIP BulkHeads - NEW (but incomplete)

gp01 - okay.

indenial - they all made the "crash cut"...

Re: FS: VIP BulkHeads - NEW (but incomplete)

Charlie, do you have lens still available. I think I indadvertently discarded my box which had it in there with the bulkhead. Anyway, I need another. Let me know how much to add since I need to PP you for a reflector. thanks.

Got my BH & VIP yesterday! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif Looks so much better with the BH on. Used it at work last night, much better than the photon I had been using. This should hold me over till I finish my OA1AA light.
Thanks again,
Mr. Bulk & Zvi

GP01,

I'm afraid I'm in the same boat as you - there were a matched number of lenses for BH bodies, and in fact when I inadvertently damaged the one in my own VIP/BH I had to cannibalize one from the group. Then when they all got sold out I had to re-cannibalize the one from the original BH of the VIP Prototype VIP(!!!) just to complete the orders.

So now I have two BHs and - one lens! Sorry.

Re: FS: VIP BulkHeads - NEW (but incomplete)

Well, I got my reflectors to finish off my BH's last night... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif In looking at them I think I may have figured out exactly why Mr. Bulk was so tightlipped about his original BH reflector source. They say pictures are worth a thousand words, so here's a pair of quick snapshots for you. In both pics, the original reflector is on the left, and the new SL reflector is on the right:

The only difference that I can spot is that the original one has a brown plastic, and the new one is greyish blue. The dimensions are identical, the reflective surface is identical... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

The blue cast to the second pic is because I used the headless nekkid VIP right below the camera lens to light up the reflectors so you could see the stippling, and didn't adjust the white balance. Worked soo much better than the bounce flash! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Re: FS: VIP BulkHeads - NEW (but incomplete)

Wow, almost clone-like, 'cept mebbe the cloners couldn't quite find the right colored plastic is...

Also the original brown plastic seemed to let just a little more light "bleed through" (mirrored finish notwithstanding) so I think the Streamies are actually just a tad brighter -- but only the light meter would know for sure.

Charlie,

Any extra reflectors available for those of us who want extras "just-in-case"?

Re: FS: VIP BulkHeads - NEW (but incomplete)

Charlie, I bought a bulkhead with no reflector is it still possible to get a reflector fot that Bulhead?
Thanks

Re: FS: VIP BulkHeads - NEW (but incomplete)

XFlash, just provide me the payment method you used so I can verify, not that I don't believe you, but these dang reflectors are so rare and hard to come by that I simply Must be absolutely positive I am distributing them to those who indeed bought Incomplete BulkHeads first. Then after the smoke settles I will see how many are left if any (would hafta keep a few on hand for myself, ya know) and then sell the rest - hey, mebbe I should put'em up on e-bay... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif

Re: FS: VIP BulkHeads - NEW (but incomplete)

BTW if you'll notice in the pic, the "blue" reflector is ever so slightly shorter than the brown one...hmmm, wonder if this makes any difference...BRB.

Nope, not a difference the naked eye can see.

Been there, tried that, they produce exactly the same beam patterns... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif They mainly look different sizes because of the way they're sitting on the blanket there. Do I need to break out the straightedge for a better comparison shot? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
