Cameras

HeliCam Aerial Media Service's primary camera these days when we are not shooting with the Alexa Mini, Red Epics, Dragons, Canon's C500, C300 Mark ii or C100 is Panasonic's GH5. As many of you know this is a very capable camera that shoots 400 Mbs All intra 4K footage and provides a wide variety of formats and frame rates up to 180 frames per second in variable frame rate mode for slow motion in 1080 mode and up to 60 fps in vfr while shooting 4K UHD. We have several different prime lenses for this camera with some having on board iris and focus control via the camera mount operators remote control. This in flight adjustability allows us to do really creative things and makes us more efficient therefore providing you with more quality footage for a given shoot day.

We recently got to fly the Black Magic Ursa Mini on a Music Video shoot.  Love the Global Shutter, the huge body, not so much.  It is a pain to deal with on a Movi.

Now we are adding the new Nokia Ozo VR camera to our list of cameras that we can fly.

HeliCam has also acquired all of the necessary support gear to support flying the new Arri Alexa Mini.

Downlink System

For downlink systems HeliCam has one of the Amimon Connex HD units for our Aerial Movi Gimbal.  We are currently providing a 19" HD monitor for our Clients so they can monitor everything live as it is being filmed.

HeliCam's Van and Lipo Battery Charging Station


Our 15 passenger Ford E350 van has a unique charging station on the front of the van coupled to a Honda EU3000IS inverter that allows us to keep our Lipo batteries charging at high charge rates even when we are traveling from location to location on a tight shoot schedule.
