Remote Camera Setups:

Cincinnati Open

4 Remotes


For the Cincinnati Open, we used 4 remotes, all canon R1's, across two courts -- networked and powered to capture every match, with images delivered live to me in the editing room.

Last minute we decided to throw a 15-35 on an R5 mk. II and put it down in front of the trophy ceremony to capture wides of the confetti. Unfortunately our mount had an issue, so Kathryn rigged it up on her shoe to make it work.
