Gas, Grass, or Glass... No One Rides For Free!
It was a beautiful, sunny day in Hollywoodland, California; F11 Rental's proprietor was cruising back to Las Vegas, when he spotted a stranger on the side of the road. This stranger had his bindle and bowler hat, and was sepia in tone. With his free hand, the stranger motioned eastward with his thumb, hoping for a ride through the hot and desolate Mojave Desert. Perhaps feeling bad for the stranger, our proprietor pulled to the side of the road, while all other vehicles zoomed past the beleaguered man.
The proprietor rolled his window down, "Where you heading?" "How far you going?" the stranger inquired. The proprietor chuckled, "Well, I'm headed to Vegas, but, the ride isn't free." The stranger looked a bit perplexed. "Gas, grass, or glass; no one rides for free." the proprietor said confidently. The stranger thought a moment, then, with a twinkle in his eye, reached into his bindle and pulled out six Schneider-KREUZNACH Cine-Xenar III prime lenses, "Will these get me to Vegas?" The proprietor grinned, "Saddle up, partner."
So, now we have an 18mm, 25mm, 35mm, 50mm, 75mm, and 95mm Schneider-KREUZNACH Cine-Xenar III lens- and they should be available for your rental enjoyment soon.

New Cases!
We love our Cineo HS2 remote phosphor lights so much, we went out and got some custom cases designed and built just for them! We employed the help of Jason Cases, and they hooked us up with some rugged, durable, customized road cases just for them. The head, ballast, and all the accessories fit perfectly inside. A big thank you to Jason Cases, and we look forward to renting them out, and getting some hours clocked on them.

F11 Rentals Plays Well With Others #sonya7sii #lasvegasvideoproduction
While F11 Rentals prides itself on being able to provide complete video production rental gear packages to our clients, we know that many times it's just a few pieces of gear that's needed. It could be that piece of gear that isn't easy to travel with, something that's maybe more unique so fewer people own it, or even that piece of gear that was forgotten. Either way, we are happy to fulfill any request, big or small. One such rental happened last week, where, due to travel restrictions, F11 Rentals was able to outfit a crew with tripods, lighting, audio, and a few miscellaneous pieces of gear. Our gear plays well with others, and is always on it's best behavior, so we knew our client would be pleased with the experience. If you have Las Vegas video production rental gear needs, just give us a shout, and we're happy to help.
An Interesting Take of RED Helium 8K #redcamera #8k #redcinema
In an effort to avoid doing any real work, I was perusing Al Gore's "internet", and came across an interesting article from our friends over at "No Film School". Mark Toia, advertising photographer turned advertising cinematographer/director, gives us an interesting and informative look into his experiences and opinions of shooting 8K on the new RED Helium. I know FiveSix Productions already brought the Helium up, but this is pretty cool... I'll let the video speak for itself.
Like Mr. Toia said, most people can't tell the difference between 6K and 8K eithout some guidance and/or the proper screen/projector; and content trumps production quality at the end of the day, but the quality and improvement of 8K is very cool. Here's his Vimeo page where you can let your eyes view some of his amazing work. F11 Rentals doesn't have a Helium yet (can't remember where I left my pot of gold), but we do have a fantastic RED Epic Dragon that will do some pretty sweet 6K... if that would work better than your iPhone.... Bill Aylward, looking at you buddy.

Little Slider, Big Results #edelkrone #sliderPLUS #travel size
One of our favorite pieces of gear is our slider, it provides a huge boost in production value without having to use a cumbersome dolly. Sometimes a regular slider can be too much as well, especially when traveling or space is limited, enter the Edelkrone SliderPLUS. The Edlekrone SliderPLUS uses inovative technology to double the available slide space by utilizing retractable rails and a built in dolly. The SliderPLUS is capable of executing smooth moves even with a fully built Canon C300 with 70-200mm lens. The sliders are durable and well built and come in a variety of sizes. So, if time, space, and budget play a role in your production in Las Vegas, or wherever, give us a call and we'll get you set up with a great tool that will add so much to the value of your final product.
