Cameras

With cameras changing so fast it is hard to know which one is best for you.  The classic 2/3"  broadcast camera and the full frame 4K or DSLR style cameras are all excellent in their own way and I believe that they all have their place.   Choosing the right camera for the job and budget is paramount.  I have experience shooting on a wide range cameras (Sony/Canon/Arri) and can provide a range of cameras including the following at competitive rates:

Sony FX9 - A new industry Full Frame standard with exceptional 6K sensor and colour sampling.

Sony FX6 - The new sought after Sony mid range camera. It packs a mean punch for the price and comes as a great second camera to its big brother, the FX9 or great on its own with amazing slow motion capabilities. It takes the sensor from the A7siii and puts it into a cinematic camera.

Sony A7Siii - The perfect mirrorless DLSR for a 2nd camera on a slider/gimbal to get the use of its exceptional auto focus feature.

For their small size, drones provide enormous production value.  I am fully insured and CAA PfCO qualified. The DJI Inspire 1 can be flown with a 1 or 2 man team and the DJI Mavic pro is a more lightweight option for travel. Both shoot HD/4K video.
