Kurtis Goodson Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 I would like to demo a Steadicam Pilot AB before I buy one. I was an experienced camera operator years ago, but have been out of it for awhile. And due to some major leg injuries, I am concerned about the weight and my physical limitations. I don't plan on trying to make a living at this, but more for my own personal projects . . but who knows. It would know very quickly whether or not I could handle this thing. . . If I could, I would certainly buy it then take some seminars, etc. I live in Sacramento and would love to demo one in either San Francisco or Los Angeles which is probably where I would have to go to find one. . . .I am planning a vacation to L.A. in a couple of months anyway. . . . Anybody have suggestions as to where I could Demo one? Again, when I say demo one, I am not looking to rent one for the full day . . .. Just put it on and try it out . . .Thanks. Kurtis G.

Premium Members Victor Lazaro Posted June 21, 2015 Premium Members Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 Hi Kurtis, The best place to demo one would be at the Tiffen Steadicam in Brubank. Tiffen Steadicam2815 Winona AvenueBurbank, CA 91504Tel: 818 843 4600 I would also strongly recommend to attend to a workshop (at least a 2 day class, or private with a professional operator) as it will teach you the proper use of a Steadicam and how to operate one without hurting yourself. http://www.tiffen.com/steadicamworkshops/schedule.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
