Filmmaker, Tom Antos, recently used a Sony A7sii balanced on the CAME-Single gimbal to film this entire music video! The video follows singer, Anna Cyzon as she walks around the streets of New York. The CAME-Single is perfect for a project that requires a lot of tracking shots, especially if it takes place in crowded areas.

The CAME-Single is small enough to be carried around, but is also strong enough to handle a max payload of 2.6lbs. Tom Antos, also posted a quick making of the music video, which he uploaded the same time as the music video was released. It goes through the creative process and even shows why he decided to shoot the entire music video with the CAME-Single. Watch the making  below!

James Norden, posted this quick test of him using the CAME-Mini 2 gimbal! The video consist of James taking the Mini 2 gimbal out on the street and following someone.
He was able to balance his Sony A7RII with the Voigtländer 21mm f/1.8 lens. James Norden does state that his setup did exceed the max weight the Mini 2 can handle. The CAME-Mini 2 is a tool-less gimbal that provides the shooter with incredibly smooth footage. It's really easy to balance your camera on the gimbal and it only takes four rechargeable 18650 batteries.

"Overall I'm very impressed with the CAME Mini 2 - with the right lighter lens it will produce excellent results." - James Norden

Recently, Tom Antos, posted this detailed review of the CAME-Single 3-axis gimbal. He does state that he was using a Sony A7s with a big lens that might of exceeded the max payload the CAME-Single can handle, but it still worked well and gave him steady footage. In this video he demos the Single with a Sony NEX-5R.

Tom Antos, goes through great detail on what the CAME-Single comes with and how you would normally setup/balance it. The cool thing about the video is that he actually cuts in some "behind the scenes" footage of a recent shoot he worked on using the CAME-Single. The CAME-Single works great as a portable gimbal that you can easily bring around with you.

In this quick review, MrCheesyCam, goes over the CAME-TV 100m Wireless HD Video Transmitter Kit. Not only does he go over the specs, he even attaches it to his Panasonic GH4 camera and tests the range of the 100m Wireless HD Transmitter Kit.

The 100m HD Transmitter Kit make it extremely easier for the shooter and the director to collaborate together. The shooter can be filming as the director watches from a distance on an external monitor. The transmitter takes a common Canon LP-E6 battery and the receiver uses a Sony NP-F570/F750 battery. Syncing the transmitter and receiver requires you to simply cycle through the numbers by clicking the "Mode" button then hitting "Ok" to confirm.

Tempo Media UK, went out with his Panasonic GH4 and CAME-7800 and shot this video that showcases BMX rider, Jay Cowley.

The video shows how the CAME-7800 gimbal can be a good piece of equipment to have for shooting action sports like BMX, skateboarding, rollerblading, etc. The CAME-7800 is a great gimbal for DSLR cameras like the Canon 5Dmkiii or mkii but can also work with smaller cameras like a Panasonic GH4 or Sony A7s.

Ken Lauguico, posted this video that highlights a wedding he shot using the CAME-7500 and CAME-Single 3-axis gimbals. He used two different DSLR cameras, the Canon 6D and the Canon 5Dmkii.
The video has a ton of great tracking shots that follow the bride and the groom as they both get ready for the ceremony. The CAME-Single is  a great one handed gimbal that provides extremely steady footage because of the brushless motors with the new encoder technology. The CAME-Single is great for cameras like the Sony A7sii, Panasonic GH4 or the BMPCC.

CAME-TV Single 3-axis GimbalAlthough, the CAME-7500 is no longer available, the CAME-7800 is an upgraded version of the 7500 gimbal and is tool-less.  For more information on the CAME-Single or the CAME-7800 click below! Make sure to also sign up for the newsletter to receive updates and information on any new products we release.

Johnnie Behiri from Cinema5D.com recently posted his first impressions and footage of the Sony A7s II. Johnnie Behiri is a BBC freelance cameraman/editor who also films documentaries, commercials, music videos and many other projects.

In the video above, Johnnie, states that he was trying to squeeze “normal footage”, “lowlight” and “slow-motion” parts into one video." In the moving shots Johnnie used our CAME-TV Single Handheld 3-axis gimbal, with the Sony A7sII and Sony 16-35mm lens, which he said was his preferred gimbal.

"CAME-TV CAME-Single is currently my preferred gimbal. Very easy to use and adjust."

We were honored to find out that he was using our CAME-Single gimbal while testing out the new Sony A7sII with great results.

DSC04384-640x360

In the article, Johnnie explains the main advantages of the Sony a7SII from the original a7s:

    • "Internal UHD 4K recording
    • S-log 3 (in addition to S-log 2)
    • Gamma Display Assistant (allows you to monitor your flat S-log 2 or 3 image in a more vivid Rec 709 way)
    • Internal IBIS stabilisation system (5-Axis SteadyShot)
    • A possibility to charge the camera via the USB port
    • A possibility to assign “REC” to other buttons than the awkwardly placed rec button
    • 100fps (PAL), 120fps (NTSC) in HD quality"

He also explains his most noticeable differences from comparing the Sony a7S II to the a7R II:

  • "The addition of S-log 3
  • Up to 120fps in full HD (compared to 60fps)
  • Gamma Display Assist
  • Sony’s a7S II is cleaner in low-light situations compared to the a7R II
  • Because of its higher pixel count, the Sony a7R II can shoot in APS-C S35 crop-mode in 4K. The a7S II can not do that. Further more, any APS-C lens that will be attached to this camera will have strong vignetting at the edges in 4K-mode (APS-C mode is limited to HD resolutions)."

Milton: Motion & Design, used the CAME-Single gimbal + his Sony A7s with a Sony 20mm lens to shoot a recent real estate video!

Vimeo user, Remo Chapeaublanc, uploaded this quick video of him testing out the CAME-Single Gimbal for the first time with his Sony A7RII and 16mm F/2.8 lens.
The size of the CAME-Single is perfect for mirror-less cameras like the GH4, A7s and A7RII. The quick release plate on the CAME-Single is completely tool-less making balancing your camera on the gimbal a breeze. Due to the encoder technology on the CAME-Single, stabilization is more precise and information about the frame and camera angles are more accurate.
