Gemini 1x1 Soft is ideal for lighting talent and rendering skin tones, enabling users to match a broad range of ambient lighting conditions quickly and easily. In addition, Gemini 1x1 Soft provides an extensive choice of control options with intuitive onboard controls as well as remote control through wired or wireless DMX or Bluetooth.

New! Vinten FH-155 Robotic/Manual Fluid Head
Making its Asia-Pacific debut at BIRTV2019 will be the new FH-155 robotic/manual pan-and-tilt head, designed to support heavy payloads in modern broadcast studio settings. With a maximum payload capacity of 70 kilograms (155 pounds), the FH-155 combines sophisticated software and mechanical engineering to enable exceptionally accurate, smooth, and quiet movements. In addition, the FH-155 is the industry s first pan-and-tilt head with an option for a fully integrated StarTracker module, offering an attractive absolute-reference tracking system for floor-roaming pedestal combinations. For studios requiring full flexibility, the FH-155 features a manual operating mode that enables camera operators to make intuitive and smooth pan-and-tilt movements when required by the content or production. The manual mode features a continuously adjustable, servo-controlled drag that is powerful enough to handle even the heaviest payloads. Operators can switch between robotic and manual modes either at the head or from the Vinten HD-VRC control system.
OConnor 2575 Fluid Head
The 2575 fluid head range is known around the globe for many of its signature features, including OConnor s patented sinusoidal counterbalance system for true and accurate balance at any point in the tilt range. The head s stepless, ultra-smooth pan-and-tilt drag gives operators ultimate control and shooting for film and broadcast productions. The latest model to the range the 2575D fluid head holds cameras up to 40.8 kilograms (90 pounds) and features platform controls on the operator s side of the head, as well as a "one-touch release lever that allows one finger or hand to quickly undo the safety catch and open the lever.
