Stuff Needed

I don't actually have a specific camera in mind, but I do have an idea of field audio recorders and other things.
The audio recorder being the Zoom H1, laid out, an analogy was put together that a Zoom H1 is about the size of a car stereo faceplate. So, very small dimensions for an audio recorder. The second is a tripod mount thingy called the Sima QuicKonnect, which basically is a thing that has a tripod mount locked in a base, but it can be removed. The idea is that you can put the base on another piece of gear, and then you can attach the tripod piece into the base to keep it portable. The idea is to have a QuicKonnect on all of your gear for easy switch around if needed, which is awesome, clearly. As I said though, I don't have a camera in mind though. My friend Scott has a YouTube show where he builds rigs to hold cameras, recorders and other things. I will definitely be keeping up with him. He is good. But there you go, the stuff of use currently.

Post 1

If you read the About Me section, you would know that I made this blog to document my filmmaker journey. Two of my filmmaker friends (from YouTube, yes they are actually my friends) have blogs, so I figured I would make one too. I like the idea of being able to show what you are doing without having to post to Facebook everytime. So that's good. Welcome to the blog! (BTW, my YouTube filmmaker friends names are Scott and Connor.)
