I recently had the opportunity to try the Feiyu a2000 gimbal. I've worked with a few camera-stabilizing systems before, and have only recently begun to feel more comfortable with them, so I was happy to try another system. Now, truth be told, I have always felt that for free-form work—I shoot handheld—and for anything else, that is what tripods, dollies, and jibs are for. Also, I'm over 50 now, so rig weight has become more of an

A few weeks before the April NAB show in Las Vegas, the video team here at B&H (myself included) was invited by the Vitec Group to an exclusive sneak peek of new tripod legs from Sachtler. I must admit, I was rather skeptical about the prospect of new tripod legs piquing my interest. However, once the Sachtler Flowtech 75 Tripod was presented in prototype form, my skepticism was unfounded.

The longer distance is achieved by new FOC ESC

Today, at IFA, Sony revealed the RX0, a tiny (just 59 x 40 x 30mm) camera that Sony hopes will be start a new type of camera segment, something it is calling multi-view recording. The RX0 is small enough to mount almost anywhere, making it possible to capture a scene or event from multiple viewpoints. Think: mounting cameras on every musician's instrument at a live show, film people singing karaoke in private automobiles without shooting through a
