Wonderfilm Pictures expanded its London rental inventory on July 14, 2026 with new VFX, stabilisation and wireless video equipment aimed at film and TV productions. The additions are designed to give crews more access to reference, capture and lens-control tools in one hire package.

Why it matters: - Wonderfilm Pictures is adding gear that productions increasingly need for VFX, camera movement and wireless monitoring. - The expansion is aimed at commercials, features and high-end television shoots that need faster access to specialist kit. - The new inventory gives crews more options for hiring reference, stabilisation and lens-control tools from one London supplier.

What happened: - Wonderfilm Pictures announced an expansion of its rental fleet in London on July 14, 2026. - The company added VFX Reference Balls in Chrome and Grey, the DJI Ronin 2 gimbal system, the Teradek Bolt 6 LT 1500 TX/RX (V-Mount), the Teradek CTRL.5 RT and MOTR.S FIZ Kit, and an HDRI Capture Kit built around the Fanotec Nodal Ninja 5 RD16 and Canon R6 Mk II DSLR. - The company described the move as part of a broader effort to serve the UK film and television production market.

The details: - VFX reference balls help capture lighting and colour reference for compositing and grading. - Wonderfilm Pictures says its stock includes 7-inch, 9-inch and 11-inch balls split 50% Grey and 50% Chrome. - The DJI Ronin 2 is a 3-axis stabiliser rated for payloads up to 13.6 kg. - The Ronin 2 package includes XM2’s Exoskeleton for heavier camera setups. - The Teradek Bolt 6 LT 1500 is a zero-delay wireless video transmission system designed for low-latency monitoring on set. - The Bolt 6 LT 1500 V-Mount transmitter and receiver pair fits existing power workflows and supports gimbal, Steadicam and multi-camera setups. - The Teradek CTRL.5 RT and MOTR.S FIZ Kit gives focus pullers remote control over focus, iris and zoom. - The CTRL.5 system integrates with the Teradek Bolt 6 LT to create a combined wireless video and lens-control setup. - The HDRI Capture Kit uses the Fanotec Nodal Ninja 5 RD16 and Canon R6 Mk II to create repeatable, high-dynamic-range environment maps for VFX and lighting teams. - Lewis Andrews said productions are requesting VFX reference balls and high-end stabilisation gear more often, and that adding the items makes it easier for clients to get everything in one place. - Wonderfilm Pictures said all new equipment is available for immediate hire. - The company said rental periods are flexible for productions ranging from single-day commercials to long-running features. - Customers can enquire or book through Wonderfilm Pictures or the company’s London hires page.

Between the lines: - The addition of VFX balls, wireless video and lens-control gear suggests demand is shifting toward more integrated on-set workflows. - Bundling capture, stabilisation and monitoring tools can reduce the number of vendors a production needs to coordinate. - Wonderfilm Pictures is positioning itself as a one-stop hire source for productions that want specialist gear without multiple equipment bookings.

What's next: - Wonderfilm Pictures is taking immediate bookings for the new inventory. - The company is likely to market the expanded fleet to UK productions that need rapid access to VFX and camera-support equipment. - Flexible rental terms may make the new kit easier to use on both short commercial shoots and longer film and TV productions.

The bottom line: - Wonderfilm Pictures is broadening its London rental offer with gear aimed at the technical needs of modern productions, especially VFX-heavy shoots and camera teams that need wireless control and stabilisation.
