I have been a videographer for 15 years but have recently been tasked by my employer to run a steadicam for an upcoming conference. We purchased a steadicam scout and will be flying a Canon C300. I watched the provided DVD's and also some youtube tutorials. I feel that I have the system is pretty well balanced, but my first question is, should I be feeling any weight in my vest? The system begins hurting my back after only about 5 minutes of use. What am I doing wrong? Second, I am not receiving a signal to the monitor. I know it is an SD monitor and I am feeding a SD signal out of my cam, but am still not receiving a signal. Any thoughts? I have by passed all wiring and tried everything I can think of. The provided remote control doesn't even work. Third, for this particular conference, I will be attached by cabling for live IMAG. Any suggestions on wrapping cable so that it doesn't affect mobility? Any help from experienced operators is appreciated.
