Afer 10 years of steadicam assisting, I think I have a pretty good idea... I primarily only worked with film though, so I dont know what some of the video operators are looking for. The main questions have to do with the weight etc. After speaking to Jimmy Muro, he commented that if its too light, it can be a bit difficult since the rig gets longer to balance out the heavier cameras. We are trying to figure out what someone would consider the ideal weight for a montitor, so both the video and "Film" guys are happy. We have already taken care of the basics, like passive cooling, and a sealed design. This will prevent any water or dust from entering the monitor. The top is completely sealed, with o-rings, so operation in light rain, should not pose any problems. A post mounted digital level will be next. This could be integrated either two ways. It could either be an LED array across the bottom of the monitor, or an onscreen bar that would move. I think we could provide a higher resolution for the level by using an led array, similar to what was one the Preston hand unit 2. Also what adjustments would people like to the digital level? Would you want it to always be absolute, or would you like to be able to offset it? I could also integrate a sensitivity adjustment, so you could adjust how quickly the level responds. Let me know what you think.. At the moment we are targeting for around 4lbs for the monitor, which should put is about a pound below the TB-6. We will have samples available in a couple weeks for operators to borrow and test, and offer their feedback.
