Litepanels®, pioneer of revolutionary LED (light emitting diode) lighting fixtures, announces the MicroPro™ on-camera lighting fixture, doubling the light output of the company’s ground-breaking Litepanels Micro™ on-camera fixture. In addition to the increased output, the MicroPro provides a broader source of light, which gives a more wrapping HD friendlier quality of light.
The MicroPro provides the same advantages as the Litepanels Micro, including AA battery operation and optional AC adapter operation. The MicroPro can be powered for over 5 hours using six Lithium Ion AA cells.
The new MicroPro is a daylight (5600°K) source, which also has an integrated gel holder to provide the ability to attach light modifying materials such as diffusers and color modifiers. Filters not being used at the time can be conveniently stored on the back of the fixture. Like all Litepanels fixtures, the MicroPro is fully dimmable with minimal shift in color balance when dimmed.
The MicroPro includes a ball-head camera adapter (that also provides a threaded receiver providing the ability to mount a MicroPro fixture directly on a light stand or camera arm).
The MicroPro is available in kit form, complete with diffusion and tungsten conversion gels in both ¼ and full correction strengths.

We really enjoy the work of one of our customers, Garry Garza. He has great talent to capture special moments in masterful framed shots, with the right amount of filter, with excellent… oh, you watch it and see for yourself. If you wondered, this video was mostly shot with a Glidecam 2000 Pro. Great work Garry, keep it up!

RØDE Microphones releases the Blimp, an all new suspension windshield for use with professional shotgun microphones.
The new RØDE Blimp is a complete windshield and shock mounting accessory, designed to accommodate the RØDE NTG-1, NTG-2 and NTG-3 shotgun microphones in addition to the NT4 stereo microphone and most third party shotgun microphones up to 325mm (12 ¾”) in length.
“During the design of the RØDE Blimp we continually focused on adding tangible performance benefits for the user.” explained the RØDE Blimp’s Lead Industrial Designer, Matthew Hall. “None of the features unique to the Blimp were incorporated without careful analysis and consideration for their purpose. We took great care to ensure all elements worked cohesively and were integrated into the overall design in a manner to provide the best possible windshield product on the market today.”
The Blimp’s main housing is based on a 10 frequency geodesic dome, with a triangular cross-section that allows the part to be injection-moulded in one piece. This geometry creates a high open-area ratio that greatly improves the acoustic transparency over existing solutions, yet an unparalleled level of robustness and physical protection for the microphone. The end-domes can be easily removed by twisting off, allowing easy access to the microphone. An oversize thread allows easy and intuitive re-attachment of the domes, avoiding clip systems that are difficult to use and vulnerable to breaking.
A high quality ‘Dead Wombat’ synthetic fur cover and brush is supplied for additional wind protection in extreme environments.

After SONY presented the new PMW-EX1 video camera, we are pleased to introduce the Manfrotto 521EX dedicated remote control.
The PMW-EX1 is a solid-state camcorder with no tape mechanism. Tape less acquisition appears to be the future and Sony is heading straight for it. We believe this is the perfect opportunity to expand our remote control offerings.
Manfrotto’s 521EX features the usual range of professional features (zoom, zoom reverse control, zoom speed control) plus an innovative fast zoom function, which can be used without modifying the zoom speed control.

Have you ever lost that lens cap while traveling or on location? Well here is one to remember.
Next time you travel and stay at a hotel collect a few of the disposable shower caps they give you each day and drop them into your production bag. They work great as a temporary lens cover or even a quick rain or dust cover when the camera is not in use.
Don’t be caught without one!
