Taping basketball games requires a lot
of camera mobility to capture fast action. The HI-POD
is not only mobile, it can get you above the hoop.
Once again you can place the camera along
the sidelines or behind the hoop. Since basketball arenas are indoors
there are space restrictions. Try getting a crane inside an arena or
gymnasium to record a basketball game! The HI-POD has
such a tiny profile that it doesn't block anyone's view.
The HI-POD's mast
diameter is only 2 inches. Setting up the unit virtually anywhere within
the confines of an arena, gym, or court won't block the audience view-
regardless of the sport (football, soccer, basketball, volleyball, boxing,
wrestling, tennis, golf, etc).
Taping Basketball requires a lot of camera mobility
And if you do have to move the HI-POD for some reason,
you can move it. It is not as restrictive as other tripod based recording
systems. This makes it very flexible.
GIVES YOU ADJUSTABLE HEIGHT!
Sometimes you don't
need to be at full extension. For instance, after the game you may want
to interview the coach or key players. Lower the HI-POD so that it is
just above the heads of other camera crews and compose your shot with
ease!
Forget cranes inside
crowded sports arenas or gymnasiums!
