This exclusive high-end production was recorded in 8K with a set of 20 cameras (13 RED Helium's and 7 RED Monstro's).
New! The Kowa Evolution 2X Anamorphic Lens (32mm). This lens is based on the original optical design of the vintage and rare Kowa Anamorphics and the P+S TECHNIK lens rehousing.
The look and bokeh of this lens match the genuine anamorphic look of the original KOWA Anamorphic lenses. This lens is low in contrast and warm in color and can be made to flare.
Perfect wide-angle addition for our set of Kowa Anamorphics!

We offer six lenses in one set, ranging from 21 mm to 125 mm. These lenses are fitted with an ARRI LPL mount.
They have been designed to render organic, emotionally engaging images, gently softening and texturizing the large format with natural skin tones and creamy bokeh. A fast T-stop of T1.8 facilitates shallow depth of field and the smooth focus fall-off gives subjects heightened presence in the frame.

This camera arrived just a few hours ago. Can you guess which camera this is?
It's called a pocket camera but it isn’t hyper-portable, but as a cinema camera it’s about as compact as I think it can be with the capability of shooting RAW and ProRes HQ in 4K DCI 60P.

Woohoo! We just received our new Camalot vests! You can get one of these and also support a good cause! Why and how?
We are aiming towards lowering our carbon footprint to (almost) zero. That's why we will be compensating all our energy consumption by planting trees.
We will do this together with Carbon Karma (www.carbonkarma.nl) who will plant the trees for us in Spain. Farmers in Agroforestry projects restore the landscape by battling desertification while meanwhile increasing their production. This way all our CO2 emissions will be compensated and we will be indirectly supporting the local economy.
Do you want to support us? Come by our office to get one! Available in all sizes! 👍
