About

An interview from the 2015 Cine Gear LA Expo at Paramount Studios with Steve Weiss of Zacuto USA. Zacuto USA products are designed, manufactured and assembled in the USA. Designers Jens Bogehegn, Steve Weiss & Mandy Rogers have over 53 years of combined film, video & photographic experience. Known around the world for designing gear that is universal between cameras and quick releasable. Zacuto USA takes cameras and transforms them into whatever you need them to be, for any kind of shooting application. In this interview Steve talks with us about their Next Generation Recoil Rigs and the Gratical HD EVF & a look at the new Gratical X.

Zacuto’s universal Next Generation Recoil Rigs are all about BALANCE! You cannot shoot with a rig that is not balanced, you’ll be fighting fatigue on long shoots. Whether you’re shooting TV, film, documentary, wedding or news, a balanced shoulder mounted rig will keep your shots steady and allow you to shoot the whole day.

Recoil rigs place the balance point directly over your shoulder, pushing focus and monitoring further forward, creating a lighter and shorter rig. The Gratical HD Micro-OLED EVF is the perfect addition to any Zacuto Recoil rig.

This new Zacuto EVF is powered by FPGA dual core processor that can support a whole host of professional features including HDMI and SDI with simultaneous cross-conversion, Vectorscope, Waveform (3D), Histogram, LUT import and creation and much more. The processing power and sharpness of the Zacuto Gratical HD electronic viewfinder far surpasses all other EVF units on the market.

The Gratical X will start at an attractive price point of $1650. Upon activation, the unit will have HDMI and SDI inputs, display adjustments, color bars, blue gun. Additional software features like pixel to pixel zoom, peaking, false color, LUTs, zebras, frame store, HDMI and SDI outputs and many more can be purchased a la carte or choose one of our bundles with savings. The Gratical X will need to be activated and software features will need to be purchased at Zacuto.com by the end user.
