Had a quick question for those planning on buying or renting the FS700 when released - what lenses do you plan on using? I won't disguise this as something it's not - I work for Cinevate and I'm trying to help out our R&D guys to see if there will be any demand for a lens adapter rig for the...

Hey gang Just wanted to share our FS100 Rig and new video. Our FS100 Lens Adapter Rig allows for swapping out lens mounts to accommodate for 8 different lens types. The passive adapters (they don’t have the chip set necessary for communication with lenses so you’ll want to use manual...

Hey I was thinking maybe you were using a thumb screw to tighten the block to the light stand, if that were the case our 'KIP' handle or long arm screw might give you better leverage to tighten it down. Having said that, any screw or fastener should work with enough turning. You'll notice I've...

Maybe you saw our last promotion which featured some great savings on our Camera Sliders. The reason for that sale was to help clear some inventory as we began our move to the new Cinevate HQ. With the success of the Slider Sale we've decided to broaden the scope of our offering...

Well, I don't have the 501, but we do have a 503 head which is similarly rated. I mounted using the 503 on the 028B stand, and then the slider on top. I then used what I'd call our weakest head just as a starting point (I used the Manfrotto rc-2 ball head which, although 'weak', I actually...

Yep! I actually just posted a few behind-the-scenes pics from that shoot in a thread in this forum but I forget which one, lol. Here's a nice rooftop pic.

Oh, just remembered this image, lol. If you're unsure, this might help. Keep in mind, the sliders in the image are just with the regular or standard legs - though they're all compatible with the All Terrain leg system You can see the image in the Ask Cinevate blog post 'Atlas 10 and FLT' here
