SmallRig in collaboration with Mikevisuals has come up with a Tracking POV Kit. The whole concept behind the kit was to come up with a tracking POV system that was not only affordable but easy to use.
The Tracking POV Kit, co-designed by Mikevisuals and the SmallRig DreamRig Team allows users to make multi-angle adjustments while maintaining stability and keeping the subject centered in shot.

The Tracking POV Kit consists of seven 360° rotatable hinges that allow you to make multi-angle adjustments. There is also an ARRI rosette and quick adjusting ball head on a Magic Arm.
One end of the Magic Arm features a built-in 1/4”-20 screw with retractable locating pins, and the other end has a NATO Clamp so you can make adjustments without needing any tools. This lets you quickly adjust positioning and height with a single locking lever.
The aluminum NATO Rail has a telescoping extension range of 49.6-70.0cm / 19.5″- 27.55″, and the arms can be adjusted so that you can place your camera in whatever position is required. The Tracking POV Kit has a payload capacity of 6kg / 13.2 lb and it folds down fold down to 37.0cm / 14.57″.
There are multiple 1/4″-20 threaded holes and 3/8”-16 ARRI locating holes, as well as an additional 1/4”-20 threaded hole with locating holes that allow you to quickly find and note down the shooting distance of your set-up. This calibration scale provides repeatability and convenience if you need to go back and recreate a scene at a later date.
You can use the NATO Clamp to rig virtually any product onto the system. Once you’ve captured the POV, you can remove the rig from the scene during post-production, to produce POV shots.
