Tilta has announced two new pieces of gear that might make filming projects on smaller cameras, like DSLRs and mirrorless shooters, a little easier
The newest additions to the company's Tiltaing line are the Mini Matte Box and the Mini Follow Focus, both of which feature compact, lightweight, modular designs to keep smaller camera kits as portable as possible, but also give mirrorless shooters the tools you'd typically to see on higher-end gear.
Best of all, though, is both cost less than $100.
