  1. Today
  2. Giovanni - I believe the issue is the relative adjustment of the ride in one section of the arm to the ride in the other section. The section closest to the body carries more weight, so the ride (iso) adjustment should always be set to more threads showing than the thread in the section closest to the sled. Try having fewer threads showing in both sections to start. Also, with a light load, there should be fewer threads showing. With a heavier load there should be more threads showing. The lift adjustment for both arms should float each section at roughly the same angle (I prefer slightly up as a starting point). You posture also makes a difference - leaning back will make the arm pop up - not what I'm seeing in the video, but be aware that it makes a difference. Hope this helps.

  6. Hi, Recently my G-50x arm has been "popping" in the first arm segment when I boom up and down. Not really sure why. I attached a video where you can see the second segment booms smoothly but the first (the closer one) will almost pop up or down in the direction I'm booming. Ride and lift adjustments don't seem to affect it. I also checked the turret screw beneath the lift knob (I saw that some people on here suggested that as the problem for others), but that doesn't seem to be the issue either. Does anyone know what it might be? Hopefully something I can fix on my end and not have to send it in. Thanks! IMG_3970.MOV

It's very comfortable and well designed!!! I am moving to Klassen harness, that's the reason for the selling, will be available beginning of April (it's my backup vest on a movie right now). It come with: -backrelief pads -pelicase for transport -EASYRIG Vario5 mount (used for one shooting, very nice!) -babypin mount -original spares and buckles, plus soft foam. The soft storage have some marks, due to transports and a quite tight packaging, but it's only cosmetic. Bought new for 6850€, price for all 5000€ + VAT, open to offers. Based in Paris, buyers pay for transport. IMG_7126.jpeg

  14. Steadicam Axis Electronic-Assisted Stabilizer (Gold Mount) I only used about 5 times. It's in excellent condition. Comes with a bag for the arm. Does not come with a case. This can use any monitor with a 1/4-20 mount. I used my smallhd on it. This is an amazing sled at quite an incredible price-point. Having that gimbal stabilizer saves so much time on set trying to find balance. It's light so it doesn't wear you out for long takes. All ports work. The axis gimbal is working well. I'm the original and only operator - I never stressed the payload. Minor wear on the suit. A few scratches here and there. Comes with Steadicam Axis Electronic-Assisted Stabilizer (Gold Mount) 3-Axis Volt System Steadicam A-30 Arm Steadicam A-30 Vest Small Steadicam Camera Plate (8.25") Docking Bracket with Hangar Gold Mount Battery Plate I modified the gold mount to a vmount adapter for my batteries. Let me know if you have any questions. I'm ed.david@gmail.com and 917-449-0739 Thanks! Ed

  20. Happy to help! HD lines are a must to have now, it's nice if you can have at least 2 HD lines on your sled. Yes the VZ grip is very nice. I really like mine. It's very handy on the volt. With the volt, you are right, you only have to buy it once. But with newer ops, I just try to steer them away from getting too focused on getting the volt ASAP. I think the longer you can go without it and learning the fundamentals, they better you'll be in the long term! Tiffen and GPI both sell covers and I think Robbi covers makes them as well. I bought my sled and monitor covers from Robbi and they are quite nice.
  21. Thanks for the valuable insight, Kevin! I definitely can appreciate that this kit is already pretty comprehensive, and that it is me getting nit-picky with quality of life upgrades, but was definitely wanting to feel out what others upgraded, and their path in doing so! I'll look deeper into that gear you mentioned - some of it is included, and some are things already on my radar to purchase! I'm also planning on upgrading some of the electronics in the HD top and bottom stage to accomodate 2-pin Lemo monitor power, an HD SDI output on the top stage front, and getting all that done at Cramped Attic. The Volt purchase was going to be something I just invest in (buy once, cry once), and then learn with the Pro II gimbal that came with it. One of the things I'm already working on getting is a newer gimbal with the VZ, because I've already noticed that I do not love having to adjust the placement of the Pro II gimbal with tools, instead of the tool less way of the VZ. Would also be nice to have a second gimbal as a backup, and the one I'm working on buying comes with a long handle, which is great for me! Where do you suggest I get the best raincovers from? Mine came with a Fikenca monitor cover and a bottom stage cover, but would like to get a nice one for my arm.
