Falcam/Ulanzi are showing a wide range of new camera mounts, including a very lightweight tripod, cages and quick-release mounts.

The F22 Quick Release System, combines lightweight cages with a range of new slide-and-lock mounts for holding lights, microphones and other accessories, including car suction mounts, top and side handles and tripod mounts. The quick-release system was inspired by the mortise and tenon joints used in woodworking, and are simple to use. All the units have a sandblasted, non-slip finish.

Ulanzi also has a new quick-release mount system for action cameras. The Go Quick II allows users to move the cameras quickly between tripod and helmet, using magnetic connections.

Also new is the Lino cage, “a smartphone cinema rig” that is versatile, with lots of mounting options for lights, etc. It can be used in landscape or portrait orientation with the handlebars in different positions. It is apparently proving popular with video journalists.

Ulanzi has also launched a travel tripod, the Zero-Y carbon fibre model, which weighs 1.1kg, but is capable of supporting DSLRs and compact cameras.

Bandwidth availability for wireless cameras is under increasing pressure, as authorities assign frequencies to more lucrative uses, and broadcasters seek to increase numbers of cameras at events, such as this week’s US Open tennis in Queens, New York, which finished today.

As the thousands of attendees, delegates and individual businesses will testify, IBC2022 is really hitting its stride after two year’s hiatus. 

Studio Berlin has upgraded its OB and studio facilities with EVS’ flexible LiveCeption live production, replay and highlights system. The deployed setup will be used for major sports events, including the Bundesliga and international football, as well as for large studio entertainment shows.

Broadcast Solutions runs IBC’s largest outdoor stand and that’s a good thing because it has arrived packed to the rafters with examples of its systems integration and production tech portfolio.

Corner Cam is a new integrated corner flag and camera for deployment in football matches. Launched at IBC, this collaboration between ARET and sports equipment manufacturers Liski, will integrate Dream Chip’s miniaturised camera AtomOne mini Air into UEFA/FIFA-certified poles.

Captioning, subtitling and localisation specialist Ai-Media is making its debut as an IBC exhibitor this year as the company steps up efforts to target non-English language broadcasters in Europe.

IBC is run by the industry, for the industry. Six leading international bodies own IBC, representing both exhibitors and visitors. Their insights ensure that the annual convention is always relevant, comprehensive and timely. It is with their support that IBC remains the leading international forum for everyone involved in content creation, management and delivery.
