Padcaster iPad Production Kit

By Warren S.

It is a good system, quality is good and is easy to set up. Carry/ Storage Bags are easy to use. The basic pack is well laid out with room for extra equipment. If iPad video production is your medium this system is for you.

From aspiring filmmakers to seasoned content creators, the All-In-One Video Production Starter Kit for Apple iPad Pro 9.7-12.9" is the ultimate tool for transforming your iPad into a mobile video production studio. This comprehensive kit is ideal for a wide range of users, including educational institutions, broadcast journalists, vloggers, and businesses of all sizes, providing a professional-grade solution that's as mobile as you are.

The centerpiece of this kit is the NEW Padcaster Case, meticulously crafted from anodized aluminum and engineered to be fully adjustable. This robust case securely accommodates any iPad model within the 9.7" to 12.9" range, including legacy models, ensuring a perfect fit for your device. Its compatibility extends to many popular non-Apple tablets as well, making it the most versatile and secure tablet support system available.

Enhance your video's audio quality with the Padcaster Mini Microphone, a compact yet rugged device made from lightweight aluminum. Designed for plug-and-play convenience without the need for batteries, it includes a heavy-duty outdoor windscreen to ensure clarity even in challenging weather conditions. The included Padcaster Dual Microphone/Headphone Splitter allows for simultaneous connection of microphones and headphones to your iPad, enabling real-time sound monitoring and recording.

Optically, the Padcaster Wide Angle Lens significantly broadens your iPad's field of view, capturing more of the scene in every shot. This lens also doubles as a Macro Lens, simply by unscrewing the front element, allowing for detailed close-up shots and a shallow depth of field effect.

Stability is provided by the Padcaster Fluid-Head Tripod/Monopod, a durable and versatile support system designed with fluid pan and tilt movements for smooth cinematic shots. Its telescoping legs and independently adjustable sections enable use on uneven terrain or tabletops, extending from 22 inches to a towering 71 inches. For on-the-move shooting, transform it into a monopod for ultimate portability.

Protection and portability are paramount with the Padcaster Camera Backpack. Constructed from waterproof nylon and fully padded, it features five Self-Securing Closure dividers and three compartments to keep your video production accessories secure and organized. The backpack's design includes adjustable straps for comfort and a removable zipper pouch for additional storage, making it the ideal carry-all for your mobile video production gear.

The All-In-One Video Production Starter Kit for Apple iPad Pro is not just a collection of accessories; it's a complete system designed to elevate your video content to professional levels while maintaining the ease and mobility of tablet-based production. Whether you're capturing a documentary, streaming live events, or creating engaging vlogs, this kit provides the quality, versatility, and convenience needed to tell your story with impact.
