Alexa MINI

At IBC 2015, Anton Bauer, part of the Vitec Group, will be exhibiting a new CINE battery series for digital cinema cameras. The CINE battery’s compact design complements cine-style cameras such as the ARRI ALEXA Mini and RED Weapon and functions on all existing Anton/Bauer chargers.

The ARRI AMIRA has a lot of cinematographers excited due to the superb image quality, legendary design toughness and of course, single operator ergonomics. Predominantly geared towards single user operation, ARRI had the documentary filmmaker, corporate shooters and ENG camera professional in mind when they designed the AMIRA.

Recently, Austrian filmmaker Adi Geisegger, took the Alexa Mini and shot "The Focus" - a short piece demonstrating boundless possibilities for floor exercise performances as an athlete tries to explain by his moves what's going on his mind before a competition.

We love the last week of February, as it's the one time of the year where the UK broadcast video industry gets together for Broadcast Video Expo. Bigger and better than ever, BVE 2015 was once again held at the London Excel centre in East London, where major and independent brands from all over the UK and Europe, dealer, and tens of thousands of video professionals and enthusiasts from all walks of life got a rare chance to get their hands on the latest video and audio kit.

ARRI has done it again – they've taken the best features of the ALEXA and this time given it a lightweight carbon fibre treatment in a very compact package. The ALEXA MINI is designed for wireless operation for drones and 3-axis hand held gimbal stabilisers. Such stabiliser device have been growing in popularity across a variety of productions from narrative, commercials, music videos to documentaries and corporate work.
