Michael E Patti Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 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?

Premium Member Dom Jaeger Posted December 2, 2019 Premium Member Share Posted December 2, 2019 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.

Cale Boys Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philip Reinhold Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 (edited) 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!
