horny955 0 #1 September 17, 2007 Hi All Someone was asking me questions about my FF2 at the weekend and they were deciding whether to get a FF2 or wait and see what the FF3 looked like. Just wondering if anyone out there has seen one yet?

The FF2 is a great lid for anything PC series (and HC I think too?), but no good for some of the more up to date digital cameras, they dont fit in the box. I would guess (and from having talked to steve at 2K a while back) that the FF3 is coming to cater for the latest stuff. but will be interested to see it! I have a Kryten and its great.

I have the PC style box witch will also fit the early models of the HC cameras like the HC20/40. There is another cover for the later HC cameras witch including the HC90/96 and HD3/5/and 7. The helmet was £235.00 including VAT and P&P i think it was worth every penny. I payed £240.00 for my old cookie and for that i got a helmet with a chincup and a flat side to mount my camera to and No camera box.

I looked at getting an FF2 and the only difference is the hinge ,lenz hole and the way it closes. It is the same size as the FF2 only there is more room for the cameras and much easier to you.

It is definately the most comfortable lid I have ever owned and my camera (Sony HC96) fits in it beautifully! I have a Sony HC96 woth a Sony 0.6 lens and a Diamond 0.3. Could not ask for a better helmet anywhere!2K Composites Dealer TonySuits Dealer Larsen & Brusgaard Dealer CSPA C, Coach 1, Rigger A, Instructor A, Tandem Videographer / Photographer, EJR Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Join the conversation You can post now and register later.
