hi everyone,
i have, recently, been designated as the new steadicam guy with my production team. The steadicam we have is over 10 years old. it is the Tiffen Steadicam SK2. We use a JVC550 on it with a 140 Anton-Bauer Battery. As you can imagine, it is no light load, especially for a 5"5 150lb guy. I calibrated it perfectly according to the instructions, but the vest wants to lean on me. How can I fix this? I believe my problem is that the chest is loose on the shoulders. The chest is one big unit as you can see in this pic ( http://files.indierents.com/photos/f/93975...k-II%20copy.jpg ). Does anyone have any thoughts?
thanks.
