How to get started?

Hi,

after doing some research regarding shots I wanted to make, it seemed that a steadicam looked like the best option.

I bought a budgetfriendly flycam redking.

It’s very frustrating for now since after balancing and having a good droptime, I have swaying issues, it difficult to have and keep it steady.

I ordered the book (steadicam operators handbook), follow youtube channels...

I use it for now only with my sony a7rii dslr.

do I add extra weight to the sled? Droptime 2.5-3 or higher?


tips are welcome!

thanks

Hi Joeri 

Welcome to the steadicam community.

I would firstly read everything in Newbies as this is a well worn path you have started on so all of your questions will be answered here ok .

I would also contact any steadicam op's in your area and get there advice on the market You want to work in .

Good luck
