Arri Mini LF in a remote location


Michael E Patti

Recommended Posts

I just locked in an Arri Mini LF to shoot this week. It seems amazing and I trust Arri and always have. But, I am weary to shoot with it on a remote location this early in the game. 

My gut is telling me to just shoot a Mini. 

Anyone out there have any advice?

Well, here in  Melbourne I think we've had two jobs use the Mini LF so far, no hitches either time. 

There have been no user issues in the Arri forum or elsewhere that I've heard.

I guess make sure your data wrangler is across the Mini LF requirements and has fast enough drives to deal with the extra data. See:

We have the 2nd Mini LF in Australia and we've had it for a couple of weeks now. Zero issues, its an amazing camera. Data is quite big but they come with the new cards and that should be it. Image quality is insane.

I used the MiniLF on most ADVERT/TVC jobs recently and pretty sucessfully. No trouble so far. You shouldn´t be more afraid as with a classic alexa mini.

She likes to have a bit more batteries.

Have fun!
