Film School - Filmmaking

Join Steve Weiss, Jens Bogehegn and Dave Schwartz as they unveil Zacuto’s revolutionary new DSLR Gunstock Shooters, set to debut at this year’s NAB show.

"The key here is not to encage with metal, keeping it light at 6.5 lbs. including camera & follow focus make it the only true portable capable of shallow DOF". Steve Weiss, product designer, Zacuto USA

After six months of using DSLR’s, Zacuto is now changing the way DSLR cameras will be used from this point forward. These Gunstock Shooters are universal, quick-releasable and extremely lightweight. They also create the correct form factor for filmmaking by utilizing the Z-finder, Zacuto’s Optical viewfinder, for precision focusing. Steve and Jens explain how these Shooters work like standard video cameras, the five points of contact offered by the Shooters, the usefulness of Zacuto’s new adjustable three-pound Z-Lite weight, and the key differences between each of the four Shooters.
