Context: "The camera is very lightweight and it has handles on it for mobility. The head is basically a rebuilt Mitchell gearhead, one of the best in terms of mechanical design. It's not as smooth as, say, a Worrall head, but it can be more accurate. It's a heavy head and the electronics are in a couple of suitcases, so it can be moved around. It's not as lightweight as a Panaflex, of course." Turner Attestation: 3 Macchina da presa Reliability: 3
