For years, digital techs, assistants, and photographers have relied on the 12.9” and 13” iPads for tethered capture and client review. But with the new 11" iPad Pro and iPad Air, the game is changing. Smaller, lighter, and just as powerful — these devices are quickly becoming the go-to choice on commercial sets and in the film industry.
There’s just one problem: mounting.
Until now, there hasn’t been a professional-grade mounting solution that gives the 11" iPad the same stability, durability, and set-ready versatility as its larger siblings. Whether you’re a digital tech running tethered capture, a 1AC pulling focus, or a videographer needing a reliable monitor solution, you know how crucial a secure iPad rig can be.
The Professional Shift
Film industry roles like 1ADs, lighting techs, and DITs are adopting iPads as essential workflow tools. From managing call sheets and lighting plans to color grading previews and camera control, the 11" iPad Pro is no longer “just a tablet” — it’s a production device. And that means it needs production-grade mounting.
Enter the xLamina Pro 11"
Launching this September, the xLamina Pro 11" brings the same CNC-machined reliability of the flagship xLamina to the smaller iPad form factor. Designed for digital techs, photographers, and film crew alike, it’s the first plate that combines:
-
Expanded mounting holes for accessories.
-
NATO rail integration for handles and rigs.
-
Magnetic carbon fibre hood for glare-free viewing outdoors.
-
7075 aluminium alloy construction for maximum durability.
In other words: a professional-grade answer to the professional-grade iPad.
Coming September 2025. Stay tuned for launch — and discover how the xLamina Pro 11" can fit into your workflow.
