Is there a good handheld gimbal for this camera?
Also what Tripod would you recommend? Would a Manfrotto 057 https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/754161-REG/Manfrotto_MT057C4_4_Section_Carbon_Fiber_Tripod.html and 502 Flathead suffice?

I've noticed that ARRI lists the safe distance for their ARRI 300W tungsten as 1-2 meters. Does that mean it's dangerous to be close to the ARRI even if it's facing away? How hot is it within a meter of it?
If it's too close to a wall or curtain or makes contact could that ignite a fire?
Also are two arri 300W enough to light a small room?

So, from what I understand the best quality for indoor film is Kodak 200T, at a smaller aperture like F/6 or F/8.But what I don't understand is which ARRI Tungsten lights do I have to buy so that will be bright enough at 3200k and 24 flood light level. Let's say I have 2 of them. One for the foreground and one for backlight. Does that change the calculation?What if there's some outdoor light coming in through the curtains? I know T Film isn't designed for that kind of light so should I try to block out all light coming into the house?I don't understand how to calculate how to get the 200 ISO with the aperture and shutter speed.I know the shutter speed is naturally at 130 Degrees (giving 1/65 sec at 24 fps).Does that mean for 200 ISO. I would need an EV around 8.0, 1/65 and aperture of F/2.8?And for 200 ISO. I would need an EV around 9.0, for 1/64 and an aperture of F/6.3?But what's also confusing about the Bolex is that there are the RX lens and the regular lens. Are RX lens better? Does using them mean I don't have to calculate the 25% that is lost?Please help me understand this

What tripod would you recommend? I wanted to be on the safe side because I have a rex-5 which is about 6 pounds and a vario switar which is around 2 and a half.
