Henning Sandstrom stopped by FreeFly HQ on his way to Maui to teach me how to film beautiful forest scenes like he does so well!

The weather was really challenging, but we got the chance to do a few flights with the newly completed 3 axis gimbal. This video shows the gimbal with a Sony FS100 and 18-55 lens.

Henning also was flying his CineStar 8 for some of the zoomed in shots with a 160mm lens equivalent (Canon 100mm lens on 7D)

We shot the behind the scenes with a RED EPIC at 300FPS.

Really fun to get to see how Henning works his magic and get to feed him some huge American cheeseburgers

    Poetry! Sonically and Visually.
    Is the 3 axis gimbal a protoype, or was it purchased then modded etc ???
    Does the copter have a model name???
    Just some basic info like that will be really helpful.
    Thanks from Down Under.
