Hi, I’m Doc.

Michael “Doc” Deitch, SOC is a Las Vegas camera operator, Steadicam operator, Trinity 2 operator, gimbal operator and more.

I started out as a dolly grip. My initials are MD, and my mentor said I was surgical with a dolly, so he called me Doc. Over 20 years later I’m still moving cameras and loving it. Steadicam, Trinity 2, gimbals: whatever the shot needs, I’m happy to frame it. Good crews make good shots, and I’ve been lucky to work with plenty. Thank you, Gonzo, for the name and everything that came with it.

Yeah, I can fly that.

Multiple pieces of equipment to solve any camera movement challenge.

( A )

Steadicam with Volt

Tried and true, with a modern upgrade. Steadicam owner-operator for 20+ years, now flying with Volt to keep the horizon dead level.

ARRI Trinity 2

A new way to move through space, limited only by your imagination. ARRI Trinity 2 owner-operator, for the shot that starts at your ankles, ends over your head and flips a 360 in the process.

Gimbals

Unprecedented flexibility for speed and creativity. Gimbal operator on the DJI Ronin 2 for full cinema builds up to 30 lbs, and the DJI RS 4 Pro for tight spaces and fast days. The Ronin 2 is also available to rent on its own.
