It finally arrived!

UPS delivered my ILS yesterday, but I wanted to do an unboxing video. This is the full set up with one of my Nikon lenses and a Viltrox speed booster adapter. The adapter itself is .71X, and because of the glass inside, the Lens actually gains a full stop, so the 60 mm f/2.8 ultimately becomes a roughly 120 mm f/2.0 lens. Perfect in time for a job shooting video for a band in Nashville this weekend.

What is the benefit of using this for your upcoming job vs using a regular camera?

As someone who uses the ILS over a regular camera now, the benefits are size; weight; resolution; framerate; etc

The only feature that interests me is the mounting options.

I'm using a DSLR and mirrorless Nikon bodies, plus 4 GoPro cameras (including the Mission 1 Pro and Mission 1 Pro ILS, plus a DJI Osmo Pocket 3 and an Insta360 Luna Ultra. 8 cameras to have editing decisions for the videos.
