The Le brothers continue to hit it out of the park! Hien and Quyen Le of Letus35 are always working on their products, listening to customer feedback, and adapting their product to better fit their clients needs.

Over the past year, I have been looking to put together my own lighting kit that I can take with me to light both for interviews and for the stock footage that I shoot.

In preparation for an upcoming shoot, I met with Shawn Nelson of Nelson Entertainment to test out and get familiar with the RED camera. For those of you who haven’t heard, the RED camera is the next revolution in digital cinema. Designed from the ground up it is a completely modular 4k digital cinema

WOW, for $650 this unit is a steal of a deal. This follow focus (FF) is easily on the same level as a Chrosziel FF both in terms of craftsmanship and in results – the price could easily be higher and it would still be worth the extra money. The only major difference from the Chrosziel FF is the size

I initially was introduced to the Letus35a when I was filming Pandora (A short SiFi film). When my partner, Norm, and I began our preproduction work for the film, we took a look at various 35mm adapters on the market for miniDV cameras. At the time I was shooting on the DVX100a.
