Shooting on some of Dan Bronks’s (DoP) favourite lenses, the Panavision Primo Anamorphics proved to be interesting. The little buggers are so big! Some of them larger than the camera. They are amazing though; opening up to T1.9. The problem is the size and weight requires 19mm bars and lens supports for Steadicam. Which unfortunately means carrying the entire baseplate unless in low-mode.
I have since come up with a solution. I now have special Steadicam dovetail plates to put 19mm bars on. This is useful for these lenses as well as for ringlights and whatnot.
