The SHOTOVER G1 is an ultra-lightweight, weather resistant, gyro-stabilized gimbal platform that delivers unprecedented image stability with ultimate functionality. Its lightweight design sets a new standard for cinematography, allowing it to be used on cranes, cables, and tracking vehicles whilst accommodating a full range of cinema quality cameras and lenses. This flexibility allows operators to carry the right payload and achieve shots that only cinema quality zoom lenses can achieve. Further increasing functionality, The SHOTOVER U1 is the multirotor that the G1 can be attached to for aerial filming.

THE SHOTOVER F1 LIVE:
Overview : The F1 LIVE is the ultimate solution for the broadcast industry, taking the best of the original F1 and streamlining it into a custom package for the ENG market. The 6-axis gyro-stabilization of the F1 allows you to capture the perfect shot without getting stuck in gimbal lock. The system comes fully configured and set up from the factory with your camera and lens of choice. It supports all major broadcast cameras, including both 4k and 2k models, and features mulit-user support, enabling different operators to save their preferences in the system. The open platform design of the F1 makes it future proof, so you’re not locked into one payload.

Schneider-Kreuznach Xenon FF-Prime Cine-Tilt lenses, Three and Four-Stop Circular True-Pol Polarization Filters, Schneider Optics Full and Split Diopter Lineup, RHOdium Full Spectrum Neutral Density Filters

Schneider-Kreuznach Xenon FF-Prime Cine-Tilt lenses
Schneider-Kreuznach introduces Xenon FF-Prime Cine-Tilt lenses, which combine similar form-factor and capabilities of the company’s popular Full-Frame Primes with added tilt function up to ±4°. They are the first full-frame Prime lenses to provide dynamic tilting of the horizontal plane of focus, and when the tilt is set at 0° they provide identical images as the standard FF-Primes. The consistent set comprises focal lengths of 25mm, 35mm, 50mm, 75mm and 100mm – all at T2.1.

Three and Four-Stop Circular True-Pol Polarization Filters
The world’s first Three and Four Stop Circular True-Pol polarization filters in 4×4, 4×5.65, 6.6×6.6 and custom sizes. Circular True-Pol filters minimally reduce exposure while providing polarizer efficiency that is magnitudes better than any low-light polarizer previously available. These new filters combine polarization and neutral density.

Schneider Optics Full and Split Diopter Lineup
Schneider adds new +1/8, +1/4 and +3/4 strengths to their existing range of +1/2, +1, +2, and +3, 138mm close-up Full and Split-field diopter lenses. Diopters screw onto the front of the lens, allowing sharp focus when the subject is too close for the lens itself to focus on it.

RHOdium Full Spectrum Neutral Density Filters
Finally, a true advance in ND filters, the FSNDs are made to exceed the critical color standards of the newest 4K, 6K, and 8K resolution cameras. Engineered with an extremely thin neutral density interlayer sandwiched between two sheets of crystal-clear SCHOTT water-white glass and manufactured to finer flatness/parallelism specifications than ever before. The filters are available in 6×6 and 4×5.65 sizes, with a full range of densities: 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, 1.2, 1.5, 1.8, 2.1, 2.4, 2.7 and 3.0.
