Owner-operator camera package
I shoot Panasonic for its color science and dual native ISO — 14+ stops of dynamic range at both 800 and 5000. Every camera, lens, light and grip item below is owned, maintained and arrives with me in a custom-built Mercedes Metris production van.
The core of the package is two Panasonic Varicam LT cameras, the Angenieux EZ-1 and EZ-2 zoom set (30–90mm and 15–40mm, T2.0) and a DJI Ronin 4D 6K for stabilised movement.
