Cinematographer robthecameraman sharing his experience shooting in Madagascar for ’Planet Earth II’. [2 of 9]
The freeflysystems MoVI only had a payload of 10lbs back then so RED EPIC DRAGON carbon fiber was the perfect lighweight camera for this set up. The RED’s small form factor means I can add other accessories like a RTMotion follow focus and Teradek wireless video transmitter.
I used a set of Nikonlenses ranging from 16mm to 85mm, they were all the same size and weight which enabled me to change a lens without off balancing the MoVI.
