I use the Red Rock Micro Event rig, and add some components which work well for me: the microphone will vary (in this case,Rode Stereo Videomic Pro), with my general preference being a Rode NTG-2 shotgun if there’s significant ambient noise. LED lighting such as this 6 AA panel design with built-in barn doors allows a  lightweight , fairly focused daylight balanced source. For headphones, I might add either extremely light mini-phones or a full set of Rockfish noise-cancelling HP’s.

At the rear is the recently added Hoodman Custom Finder Baseplate and 3″ loupe. There’s a RRM lens ring on this 85mm f/1.8 Nikkor, connected to a follow focus; a Fader is used to control aperture in bright light, as well as flare reduction with a matte box.
