Gear Room Geek Post:
Sony FX6 full frame 4K camera with Fujinon Premista 28-100 full frame variable zoom lens.
All held nicely in place with Wooden Camera 15mm support package featuring the vlock battery plate, mounting down onto 19mm dovetail plate system and rocking the Bright Tangerine matte box out front.
Balances beautifully on the dove tail plates.
This time we set up on Sachtler 150mm head.
Perfect rig to take advantage of the FX6 4K 120fps option.

Great to see the Gear Room kits in action at the Crowded House Auckland concerts last Friday and Sunday.
Nice combination of Sony Venice, Sony FX9’s, Fujinon Premista lenses and Fujinon Cabrio lenses. And lets not forget, a nice big ole Century Optics 150-600 (with 2x) courtesy of Metro Film.
All expertly operated by Olly Harris (DoP), Jono Drew, Yves Simard, Alex Campbell, Philippa Hayward, Joe Rixon, Clayton Carpinter.
Nice work team.
