Unleash Your Creativity: A Rough Guide to SmallRig Products

In the world of filmmaking and content creation, being a run-and-gun single shooter is becoming more and more common, and the only way we can do that efficiently is to...
Our Socials
I usually can't be bothered with reviews.If I get good services I just keep coming back if the service is not to my liking I move on. However, on this occasion I feel I need to give the video guys a wrap. Their service is fantastic I have had the need to do more research when purchasing some products, and as we all know, film, video and photographic equipment is not cheap. I just reach out to these guys I get emailed back within 24hours with all the information I need.Furthermore I get advice on the most cost effective way to solve my problem. Keep up the good work Video Guys.
These guys are amazing have so much stock, great prices. And awesome customer service. Helped us get out of a jam. Thank you š
Slight problem with a pre-order product and getting it shipped to my address. Called them and they helped so quickly over the phone. Absolutely will use them for any future purchases. Thanks team! You guys rock!
Amazing shop, as well as people who work there! Eddie was professional, knowledgeable and friendly. He found exactly what I was looking for, and sold me the goods at a competitive rate. Great work videoguys, highly recommended!
My first port of call for audio production. You can count on Videoguys for a great range (especially Rode) and a friendly, knowledgeable and smooth in-store and e-shopping experience. When itās time to update my lighting Iāll be there too.
If ever there was a Chuck Norris of camera equipment supplier dudes, it goes out to these champions - after calling 10 freaking stores and no stock, it was an absolute dream to hear the words " Yep we've got that in stock" Straight up get the boss to shout this team a round!
Very helpful guys there Lots of technology and options. The guy actually talked us into a better (less expensive) option and was genuinely knowledgeable on whatās what Got everything you see online but in a physical store
The service here is so good that I had to call up the manager and thank him for the exceptional quality service provided from staff who were incredibly easy to deal with and really knew their stuff. These guys have set the bench mark for other companies and organizations to aspire to.
Amazing service, I bought my gear from their website and had it shipped across to WA in 2 days! Last November, I bought the same bit of gear from the well known company Digidirect , only to have to wait for 3 months of constant out of stock emails for them to eventually lie and say the item was discontinued. I then decided to buy it from video guys and was very impressed with their service and recieved my item in 2 days rather then waiting 3 months for nothing. I Will be buying from them again !
Recently purchased a 1/4ā jaw clamp camera mount. It is as described and perfect for my requirements such as clamping a gimbal to fence railing for that once in a lifetime video of express steam trains, my hobby
