VFX Balls. These reference spheres are vital for VFX and post-production workflows. Chrome balls record a scene’s lighting environment, enabling compositors to align CG elements with real-world illumination. Grey balls serve as a guide for colour grading and light matching, guaranteeing seamless VFX integration. Wonderfilm Pictures is London’s foremost rental source for VFX Balls, offering 50% Grey and 50% Chrome in 7”, 9” and 11” sizes for hire.
DJI Ronin 2 Gimbal System. The DJI Ronin 2 is a professional three-axis stabiliser favoured by cinematographers. With a maximum payload of 13.6 kg, it supports cinema cameras and lenses. The setup includes XM2’s Exoskeleton to provide extra strength when using heavier camera packages. Featuring omnidirectional movement and a sturdy build suited to demanding shoots, the Ronin 2 delivers smooth footage in Steadicam, vehicle, and handheld modes, giving productions adaptable access to dependable professional stabilisation.
Teradek Bolt 6 LT 1500 TX/RX (V-Mount). The Bolt 6 LT 1500 is a zero-delay wireless video transmission system engineered for reliability on fast-paced sets. It offers robust range and a stable signal even in crowded RF environments, allowing directors, DPs, and clients to watch a live, low-latency feed from camera without being physically connected. The V-Mount transmitter and receiver pair integrate directly into existing power setups, making it a quick and trustworthy addition to gimbal, Steadicam, and multi-camera configurations.
Teradek CTRL.5 RT and MOTR.S FIZ Kit. The CTRL.5 is a compact, precise wireless lens controller built on Teradek’s RT platform, giving focus pullers responsive command over focus, iris, and zoom from a safe distance. When used with MOTR.S motors, it delivers full remote control of all three lens functions. Its rugged, ergonomic design and fast rigging make it ideal for gimbals, drones, remote heads, and conventional camera setups. The system also works seamlessly with the Teradek Bolt 6 LT, forming a complete wireless video and lens control solution.
HDRI Capture Kit — Fanotec Nodal Ninja 5 RD16 with Canon R6 Mk II DSLR. Based on the Fanotec Nodal Ninja 5 RD16 panoramic rotator paired with a Canon R6 Mk II body, this kit is built for quick, precise HDRI lighting capture on location and on set. The RD16 automates accurate, repeatable rotation across multiple exposures, letting VFX and lighting teams create high-fidelity, full-dynamic-range environment maps for lighting reference and CG integration.
“When I work on big shows, I listen closely to what productions need. VFX reference balls and high-end stabilisation gear are being requested on more and more shoots — from commercials to features. By adding these to our hire catalogue, we’re making it easier for our clients to get everything they need in one place, with the reliability and service they expect from us.”
— Lewis Andrews, Wonderfilm Pictures.
