We’ve all been there: you’ve been out on location, or even in a studio, but working on a very chaotic project, and all of a sudden, you’re out of power. Of course, there are many solutions to make sure that your camera, lights, and gear don’t lose power. Your best tool is going to be your planning time, but we all know that doesn’t always happen.
The HPS99 Handheld Power Stick from Smallrig, which was announced back in May, has finally hit stores and promises to be a helpful tool to give filmmakers the power of power in the palms of their hands. Let’s look at how you can make every watt count on your shoots with this compact, go-to power hub option.
