It is from a German site, so I translated the parts that needed translation, I hope it makes sense.
What do you guys think of this rig?
It costs 1530 Euro which is about 1960 US$.
Is it a good price?
I could also change things, it's fully customizeable, this is just one of their ready-to-go offers.
If I should change anything, what would you suggest I change?
