Midas Mount Announces Back-To-School Deals

CULVER CITY, Calif. - Sept. 17, 2013 - PRLog -- Midas Mount today announced a limited time Back-To-School discount on the revolutionary SnapFocus Follow Focus System and HitchHiker Shoulder Support Rig.  Between now and Oct. 31, 2013 all students and educators with valid ID qualify for a 20% discount on the SnapFocus/HitchHiker Rig or SnapFocus Follow Focus System, for savings up to $240.  More details about these discounts can be found at www.MidasMount.com/back-to-school.

“I started the Midas Mount brand and invented the SnapFocus Follow Focus System to empower young filmmakers”, said Brandon David Cole, Midas Mount’s co-founder and co-inventor of the SnapFocus Technology. “The SnapFocus is a simple tool that allows students to experience the craft of filmmaking at a professional level."

"The SnapFocus is an intuitive way for humans to interact with cameras,” said Cole, a feature filmmaker and ex-professional BMX rider who married his passion for filmmaking and knowledge of bicycle mechanics when he devised a way to actuate focus with brake levers with the help of his neighbor Harry Gramig, a retired inventor and machinist.

Using bicycle-style brake levers on the handles of a camera support rig, the SnapFocus gives filmmakers control over the focus of a lens without losing stability of the camera.  It gives filmmakers true grip-level focus control for DSLR, RED or any fixed lens camera.
