Used Padcaster Bundle for iPad 2/3/4

The Padcaster transforms your iPad into an all-in-one mobile production studio that is rugged, elegant and versatile so you can create professional quality video content that inspires.

Use with your favorite apps to shoot, edit and upload video on the fly - or stream live right from the iPad.

Featured in Apple's "Your Verse" international advertising campaign for the original iPad Air, as well as the iPad Air 2 "Change" campaign, and Visa's "Visa Checkout" campaign, The Padcaster is a patented, rugged multifunctional iPad case that transforms the iPad into an all-in-one mobile production studio. The Padcaster enables consumers to shoot, edit and upload video on the fly - or stream live right from the iPad. More than an innovative way to mount an iPad to a tripod, The Padcaster transforms the iPad into an all-in-one production tool.

The Padcaster is designed to dramatically improve the quality of video made on an iPad 2, 3 or 4. A complete solution, The Padcaster includes a wide angle lens, unidirectional microphone, dual microphone/headphone jack and a .45 wide angle lens.

Padcaster's commercial-grade aluminum frame has 24 standard 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded holes around the edges for attaching external microphones, lights and other accessories. This allows for greater creative control over filming. A sturdy urethane insert allows the iPad to fit securely into the frame. The Padcaster can also be attached to any standard tripod, monopod or shoulder mount using the steel-reinforced tripod thread and locking-pin hole. By removing the insert, you can use the frame as a DSLR or GoPro cage for added versatility.

The included lens bracket has a built-in 72mm thread and comes with a 72-58mm step-down ring that allows you to attach wide or telephoto lenses with rear threads of 72mm or 58mm. A cold shoe adapter for accessories like LED lights and microphones is also included, as well as a special camera mount screw for using the frame as a DSLR of GoPro cage.

The Padcaster also comes with a unidirectional microphone and windscreen to ensure your subject can be heard above the crowd; a dual microphone/headphone jack to monitor your recordings live; and a .45 wide angle lens to get a broader view.

Padcaster Wide Lens
Padcaster's .45x wide angle lens dramatically increases the iPad's field of view. The 58mm rear thread means it attaches directly to the Padcaster lens bracket, and you can use additional 62 filters in front of the lens as well. Unscrew the front portion of the lens and it becomes a macro lens for close-up focus and a simple way to achieve a shallow depth of field.

Padcaster Shotgun Mic
Padcaster's YT-1300 is a broadcast-quality condenser shotgun microphone. Adjust for both loud and soft sound sources with the three position level control with stops at -10dB, 0dB and +10dB of gain, and eliminate 'rumble' using the two step high pass filter with 80hz and flat positions. The YT-1300's integrated sturdy 'shock mount' with hot-shoe adapter and included windscreen are ideal for both indoor and outdoor conditions, either locked down on a tripod or hand-held on-the-fly. Requires a 9Volt battery (Not Included)

Dual Mic/ Headphone Jack
Padcaster's dual microphone/headphone cable is a simple, professional way to connect your microphone to the iPad. One end is a MALE TRRS (Tip, Ring, Ring, Sleeve) and connects to the iPad's headphone/mic port. The other end splits into a 3.5mm (mini) stereo headphone jack and a 3.5mm (mini) microphone input so you can record and monitor your sound at the same time.
