Yup, I feel it’s the only way to light a fire under their asses.

Good hunting.

I got my full refund today from Kinefinity. All I had to do was call them up and they had my refund by the afternoon. So, if they’re not answering your emails, just call them.

I’m now the proud owner of a Sony F65 🙂

Well, it’s been over a week since they told me it would only take 3 days to refund my money and again they aren’t replying to my emails.

Very frustrating especially when I need to get another camera but I can’t do it without the money they’re withholding from me 🙁

I’m wondering if that Newsshooter review put them at a disadvantage and now lots of people are cancelling orders? Hmmm…

Finally they’ve replied to my email and promised I would see my refund in 3 working days. It’s been 5 working days since then and again they don’t answer their emails.

I’m done with this company and just want my money back but they can’t seem to deliver on that either!

Well they seem to be taking their sweet time in refunding me my deposit.

I’ve sent several emails confirming that I do want to cancel my order after they asked if I’m sure because now that they’ve checked, my MAVO is two weeks away from shipping and am I sure I want to cancel. Funny how it happens that way.

Now they don’t answer any of my emails.

Reliability and the way the audio on the Kineback works won’t work in my situation.

Well, after waiting since March 30 and then reading the Newsshooter review, I’ve decided to cancel my Mavo order. Hopefully they’ll refund my money in a timely manner.

Of course, Kinefinity is on holiday until Oct 8.

Damn I wonder what the trick to getting one is? I’ve had my order in since March 30 and paid over half of the cost when they told me to and said to pay the rest when the camera is 2 weeks away from shipping. Never heard from them again.

Kinefinity gave varying discounts dependant on which package you ordered and if you were one of the first 100 people to preorder a Mavo.

I paid my preorder deposit on March 30 for my Mavo and was one of the first 100 to order and qualify for discount. Still waiting for it to ship…they tell me now “maybe end of August”

Well I ordered the E mount anyway and will modify it to take the Metabones adapters. It’s the best for my situation having 3 other E mount cameras in addition to the incoming Mavo.

Does a Red Raven have a similar bottom layout to the Terra/Mavo? If so, this might work. https://www.smallrig.com/smallrig-red-raven-baseplate-1756.html

Now I’m not sure what to order since I have an even mix of Nikon and PL mount lenses plus all the Metabones adapters and Speedboosters for each to E mount.

Argh!

I’ve just heard from Kinefinity. They say that using Metabones adapters with their E mount adapter may destroy their mount. I’m guessing because it has electronic contacts which the Metabones does not have.

I was hoping to avoid having to buy separate adapters all over again for all my Nikon and PL mount lenses. 🙁

You can probably find something similar or better at http://Smallrig.com

Well that sucks…it’d be nice to know before ordering whether the Metabones PL and Nikon adapters will fit.

No, Carl from ProAV in the UK (Kinefinity’s official supplier there) mentioned this in a comment on the Facebook group. See here.

I was wrong…apparently the manufacturing holdup was a part for the new Kineback-W. They’ve now been re-supplied and building Mavo’s and Terra’s!
