Camera Support Systems

Camera support gear on a Peruvian production must handle a wide range of conditions. One day it works a controlled Tondero Studios soundstage in Lima. The next, it faces a 3,400-metre Cusco plaza at sunrise, where each kilogram of grip kit is hand-carried up cobblestones. Then comes a Tambopata canopy walkway, where high-humidity dew fogs every metal surface by 6am.

Our inventory pulls through Audiovisual Project Perú, Filmtek Perú, Cinesphere Rentals, and the grip-focused stock at El Niño and Stock Rental Peru. It covers O'Connor 2575 and Sachtler Video 30 fluid heads for ARRI Alexa Mini LF and Sony Venice 2 builds. The lighter Sony FX9 and FX6 setups run on the Sachtler FSB series. We also carry Ronford Baker baby and standard legs, plus full carbon-fibre travel kits for Manú and Sacred Valley shoots where each gram counts. Dolly stock runs Chapman Hybrid IV and Fisher 11 for Lima scripted shoots, with Dana dolly and Inovativ Voyager travel options for documentary teams crossing the Andes.

Stabilisation runs across the full toolkit. Steadicam M-2 and Volt rigs are run by SOC-affiliated Peruvian Steadicam operators trained in Lima. For electronic stabilisation on car and remote-head work, we field DJI Ronin 2 and MōVI Pro. Easyrig 3 and Flowcine Serene arms cover the long handheld days that documentary and feature schedules in the highlands demand.

Scorpio and MōVI Pro remote heads stand ready for crane and Russian arm work where you can't run the head by hand. That covers drone-adjacent inserts across the Sacred Valley, car process shots through Lima's Costa Verde, and canyon work on Colca and Cotahuasi. Each kit ships prepped and tested from the capital site, with backup heads, spare plates, and Mitchell-to-Euro adaptor sets alongside. Dolly grips and stabiliser operators can be booked with the gear, and tech support runs across the schedule. The inventory scales from a single tripod-and-head for documentary to multi-cart studio builds at Tondero Studios.
