BIRTV 2011 – EImage carbon fibre tripod and follow focus from Dan Chung on Vimeo.
Many Chinese manufacturers large and small were showing DSLR rigs and follow focus systems at BIRTV this year. Many rigs look strangely similar to their Western counterparts. Larger brands like Wonderlan and Cinematics had large stands packed with gear.
E-Image is one of the biggest tripod manufacturers in China who regularly attend shows like NAB. Their quality is good compared to other Chinese tripod makers and they have recently branched out into selling rigs and follow focus as well. Here is a look at their new follow focus, carbon fibre tripod and a basic shoulder support with battery plate for cameras like the AF100 or EX1.
