In this episode, we cover some of the strangest camera rig parts we’ve ever seen. Then, we look at a few updates in the world of tripods, including new contenders from Peak Design, Smallrig, and Manfrotto, and reflect on some recent shoots where we used the Sachtler Flowtech 75 and Smallrig FreeBlazer. In other news, Fuji trickled out more information on the GFX Eterna, and the Nexus G1 is apparently still on the way.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
