OConnor: New DCM and DCL Dollies and New Camera Assistant Bag
OConnor will be showcasing two new dollies and a new camera assistant bag for the first time at the Cine Gear Expo.. These robust, lightweight, and compact wheeled dollies bring even greater versatility and convenience to on-location shoots.

Litepanels: Gemini 2x1 Soft Panel
Litepanels will showcase Gemini, the industry's most accurate and versatile 2x1 soft panel. Gemini eliminates the need for color correction by offering full-spectrum white light that’s perfect for lighting talent and rendering exceptional color. Lighting professionals can “go bold” by lighting with any color in the 360-degree color wheel and popular gels within Gemini’s color modes. Plus, Gemini’s latest firmware upgrade allows for a variety of cinematic effects, such as emergency lights, fire, TV, and hue bursts, all of which are fully customizable and easily saved to presets.
Gemini’s versatile, ballast-free, lightweight design allows the light to be rigged more easily, requiring less cabling because the power supply is built-in. The production-friendly soft panel can also deliver full-intensity, mobile-powered operation under battery only; an ideal complement is the Anton/Bauer CINE VCLX battery. Users can operate every function of Gemini with its intuitive on-board controls and user interface with multiple control options.
