Virtually identical in design approach to the Steadicam, the mechanical system of our comfort vest and articulating arm alleviates the physical stress that would otherwise be placed upon the operator. If you've ever used a stabilizer, you know it's a great tool to have for walking shots. But even after a short time they can become very tiring. The fatigue that's induced by carefully holding a stabilizer and camera at arm's length for extended periods will eventually impact your shooting. A vest and arm system removes that problem, enabling you to simply "wear the camera" and go all day long. This remarkable system supports cameras weighing up to 33 pounds, effortlessly!
The purpose of the Support Arm is to support the weight of the camera plus sled while isolating the sled from the motions of the operator. The arm consists of two segments, called bones, connected together with a pivoting hinge, two joint hinges, a vest connector, and a gimbal connector. It acts as an additional arm of the cinematographer/operator.
The padded support vest has three attachment points for its suspension system plus a wide lower 2 inch cushioned "belt" secured by Velcro. The vest has five buckles, whole body pod 2 inch cushioned and a standard arm connector. For added strength and durability arm connectors are made of aluminum.
To eliminate any jerkiness or unwanted shock in your moving shots an advanced Stabilization System has been engineered. At the heart of the system is a specially designed gimbal system. With gyroscopic precision, this is what allows the arm to pivot so freely on the support arm. The gimbal produces a completely fluid motion free of any unwanted friction.
The Camera Base plate has both 1/4" and 3/8" mounting slots (holes) to accommodate all variety of camera bases. You can slide your camera with base plate of steadi cam on both the horizontal and vertical axes, achieved by means of thumbscrews and a movable camera base plate.
You can hold an LCD monitor at one side of the Pro 6000. The idea of holding a screen at another side of post is that the eye does not touch the camera in order to transfer shock to video. The monitor's video is carried by internal wiring (wiring is done from inside the post). There are slots in post for this very purpose) to the monitor so that person operating this system can walk or run without giving any shock to this system. The monitor and battery mount is stronger easier to flip for low mode and has a wider range of positions, both vertically and horizontally. This revolutionary system even comes with a convenient stand for hanging the system when not in use.
