NAB 2015
One of my favorite demonstrations at NAB this year! In this photo, I am demonstrating the sleek new Ready Rig and DJI Ronin combined. Not only are the shots impressivly fluid, but because of the Ready Rig support system, I am able to lift a RED with Prime Lens over my head for over 10 minutes. The rig takes all of the stress out of one's arms and back and transfers it to their waist. Brilliant Design!
