My ultimate nanoFLASH Set-Up

As you all know I have been trying to settle upon the best way to mount my nanoFLASH on my Sony PMW-EX3 / Protech ST-7 Shoulder mount rig since I got it! To be more precise I really wanted to mount the nanoFLASH on the back of my IDX Endura 10 Batteries. I know that [...]

The official Sony XDCAM EX SDHC Adaptor for the PMW-EX1, PMW-EX1R, PMW-EX3, PMW-350

There is no doubt that Sony’s XDCAM EX Solid State Media is going from strength to strength. In the earlier days of the format you could only purchase Sony SxS Pro Memory Cards in 8GB or 16GB sizes and with the introduction of the PMW-EX3 the Sony PHU-60K 60GB HDD Recorder but now the choice [...]

A cheap alternative to the Sony VCT-14

Since I purchased the Protech ST-7 I have been having a growing need to purchase more Sony VCT-14 Tripod Plates which retail at a staggering £300.00 each. Expensive but beautiful! Since I didn’t want to pay quite that much I opted to order the slightly cheaper Sony VCT-U14 Tripod which retails at £250.00 each.

Mounting a nanoFLASH on V Mount Batteries

I have been looking for a mount that can place the nanoFLASH on my IDX ENDURA-10 Batteries. I think I’ve finally found it!!! Take a look at the Instruction Manual for the IDX A-MWR Universal Wireless Receiver Mounting Bracket.

Protech ST-7 Shoulder Mount for the Sony PMW-EX3

I have been in search of a good shoulder mount for my Sony PMW-EX3 ever since I got the camera way back in September 2008. Anybody who has used the Sony PMW-EX3 knows just how front heavy it is adding to the awkwardness of the ergonomics on this semi-shoulder-mounted camera thus making it hard work [...]

Putting a Nikon Super Telephoto Lens on a Sony PMW-EX3

Even after a year after the release of the Sony PMW-EX3, I am still inundated with emails asking if I use my array of Nikon Lenses with my PMW-EX3. So I am republishing an article I wrote for my old blog ‘Paul Inglis Media Web Journal’ which was aptly entitled ‘Putting a Nikon Super Telephoto [...]

You've Got the Moves

This post is one that I originally wrote for my older blog ‘Paul Inglis Media Web Journal’ and was published on 31st January 2009 at 16:07. Again I am republishing this particular article as many have asked about what Jib I use with my Sony PMW-EX3 when working alone. So without further ado, ‘You’re Got [...]

My Sony PMW-EX3 and nanoFLASH Rig Update!!!

Well as time permits I have been trying to improve my Sony PMW-EX3 and nanoFLASH Shoulder Mounted Rig. If you missed my last post entitled ‘Sony PMW-EX3 and nanoFLASH Rig’ then please read it as it as it is far more in-depth than this post. Here I am just posting three new images of my [...]

Nikon G to Sony PMW-EX3 Adaptor

I originally wrote this post back in June 2009 and published it on my Harbour Creek Media Blog. I have republished it here as many filmmakers are asking me about this adaptor. Mike Tapa at MTF Services released the original Nikon to Sony PMW-EX3 Adaptor in September last year. He spent a long time researching [...]

Sony PMW-EX3 and nanoFLASH Rig

I have had a few requests for images of my Sony PMW-EX3 and nanoFLASH Rig Set-Up. This is very much work in progress as I have yet to add a Matte Box to the rig to help balance everything out better. I also want to side mount the monitor apposed to having it on top [...]
