OConnor OCcessories<br />

OConnor, occupying occupational occasions for heads and<br />

tripods, continues to astonish us with innovative new high-end<br />

accessories. With Ali Ahmadi as OConnor Brand Manager,<br />

Jim Elias heading the design team in Europe, Eric Johnston as<br />

Product Specialist in New York, and Michael Zeisse handling<br />

sales in Europe, Middle East and Africa (as well as the handgrips<br />

in the picture below)—the product line shown at IBC and Cinec<br />

continues to grow and impress.<br />

The first OConnor camera accessory was the modular followfocus<br />

system. Its unique, modular design makes it easy to go from<br />

15mm to 19mm rods, and the low profile works with even the<br />

widest diameter lenses.<br />

78 Dec 2010<br />

OConnor has thoughtfully designed wonderfully adjustable<br />

supports, risers, rods and bridgeplates for the dizzying array of<br />

new HDSLR and Prosumer cameras.<br />

The next OConnor OCcessories were O-Grips—as in, “OMG,<br />

why didn’t anyone think of this before?” Made with a solid<br />

titanium core, O-Grips twist to tighten. One individual handgrip<br />

module can handle a maximum weight of 44 lbs (20 kg).<br />

They fit onto all three standard rod systems (15mm and 19mm<br />

Studio, and 15mm LWS) with one convenient O-Grips bridge.<br />

O-Grips were quickly followed by the O-Box, on the next page.
