Can you let me know what other filters work in it bc I would love to find more cinematic filters for the basecamp

    As you sit the FX9 on the railing, with your right hand holding a different camera, and pat the Sony with your left hand... I realized, "What does Mark do for insurance on his gear?" Seriously, how do you insure your gear and how much do you pay for insurance? (Also, good to hear that Sony unlocked 24p for the FX9! I was never a fan of Sony's color style, but their recent changes are getting me more interested...) Great tips!

    Hey Mark. I recently started working as an editor/videographer for a small production company. On the weekends I film weddings. I love filming handheld because of the organic look of the footage but there are times I want to have very smooth and stable shots. A gimbal would definitely help and make my life easier so I can focus on getting the shots that count. Weddings are fast paced and very much documentary style so if you miss a shot there is no going back. That's why this gimbal would be a nice addition to my kit. #gimmedatgimbal
