What's your recommended HDSLR rig setup? What accessories do you find most groovy?

    Everybody on the team has a slightly different taste for what they like to use but the Canon 5D is the most checked out piece of gear we have. We record audio on an h4n Zoom recorder with either a boom or Senheiser wireless packs, using Countryman lav mics. Though sometimes we will rent Zeiss lenses for high-end shoots, our bread and butter lens is the Canon EF 24-105 f/4 L lens with a complement of primes. And for stabilization, nothing beats the mobility of a Manfrotto 561BHDV-1 monopod. There are a lot of other pieces that we use from time to time, but those are the bare essentials.
