This is one of the hottest Control Surfaces for Color Grading available right now (for Davinci Resolve, SpeedGrade, Premiere, etc) mainly because it's super affordable when compared to other options. The new Ripple is designed by Tangent Devices sharing much of the same functionality of their more expensive Element TK Control Surface. Instead of using expensive materials like Aluminum, they opted to go with more Plastic and instead of a dial around one of the balls, they used simple dials above the balls.

The COB120 is a new bright LED light by Aputure that uses one high power LED Chip and offers a Bowens mount to take advantage of the thousands of different light modifiers typically used for photo strobes.

Nice new Avegant Glyph headset that doesn't actually cover your eyes completely. You can still see above and below the screen making it easy to keep spotting your Drone.

Other FPV systems completely cover your eyes. The Glyph also has head tracking sensors which can be used to control the gimbal on the Drone. It's an HDMI input, and the Inspire1 remote has an HDMI out on the remote. If you're using something like the DJI Phantom 4 quadcopter, you'll need the DJI Phantom 3/4 HDMI Output Adapter (found here).

Although this CAME-OPTIMUS Gimbal i'm working with is an early prototype, it's been a solid workhorse. I've been putting it to the test on several Real Estate listings shooting up to 6 hours a day on a single battery.

I'm using the CAME-OPTIMUS Gimbal mainly with the GH4 or Sony A7s and have not had any issues so far. For small mirror-less cameras like the GH4 or Sony A7sII with native lenses, I'm guessing this could turn out to be a very popular item.

Here's a recent video I helped out with from BluSkyFilms showcasing many CAME-TV Optimus gimbal examples along with some footage from the DJI Phantom 4.

A prototype extension adapter that sits between the DJI OSMO and it's handle. This way you can still hold the gimbal comfortably and operate the joystick for Pan and Tilt.

As a special request, I used my 9.Solutions clamps, rods, and gags to build a frame for holding the 18" LED Ring Light over @satostudio's DJI Ronin-M Gimbal. Combined with a wide angle Rokinon 14mm lens on a Sony A7sII, this adds that cliche' music video look. Will post samples when we have the final music video done.

Special request to do a one take shot starting outdoors, fly through doorway, over racks, and then through a glass window. In order to achieve this we made a special handle and attached a gimbal. A wireless video feed was sent back to an OSEE LCM156 Monitor for someone to remotely control the Pan and Tilt of the gimbal as we walked through. The final footage will have speed ramps and a morph cut to make this one shot seamless.
