About
The Cineshot was designed in Queenstown, New Zealand by award winning engineers with years of experience designing gyro stabilized gimbals for the film industry, television, electronic news gathering, sporting events, wildlife videography as well as search and surveillance. Mechanical 3D CAD, electrical PCB and software design is done in-house. We have a full machine shop with CNC capability which allows us to quickly design, test and manufacture components. Every system is assembled and tested by our team.
