Xorigin’s Measles Vaccinations in Bangladesh Shooting Challenge | Bangladesh

Compass 20 tripod system provides solid support to KinseyHD Productions | USA

Compass 20 System Navigates the Wolf Debate | USA
Well let me start out by saying this wasn’t the first Miller Camera support I’ve used to harness smooth worry free operation. I have been fortunate enough to follow my dreams filming unique subject matter and destinations from the Great Moyowosi swamp in Western Tanzania to the Prince of Whales straight in the unforgiving Arctic. I’ve improvised using Miller’s carbon fiber legs with the retractable spikes to climb icebergs, avalanche chutes and raging rivers. Their support systems have yet to let me down in the heat of battle. So when Miller offered me a chance to demo their new Compass 20 system on the controversial wolf issue out West I figured it was what I refer to as a “no-brainer”.
