Simone Avossa Posted July 17, 2021 Report Share Posted July 17, 2021 Hello, I own a Steadicam Aero 15 (arm & vest) and I was interested in buying a Steadicam Aero sled: https://tiffen.com/products/steadicam-aero-sled-with-7-monitor. As per Tiffen specification, the Aero 15 arm is supposed to support up to 15 lbs total payload (including everything past the arm). Form this link (https://tiffen.com/pages/steadicam-aero) it says that the Aero sled weights 9.75 lbs (with monitor & battery mount, without battery). This means that the room left for camera and battery is 5.25 lbs. This does not match with the fact that the Aero 15 system can support up to 10 lbs camera payload. Is there in the forum any owner of the Aero system who can tell me how much the Aero sled actually weights? Is it actually 9.75 lbs or less? Many thanks, Simone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Cummings Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 Hi Simone! I have an Aero 30 and I'm fairly certain the payload listed is in reference to the camera package total, rather than the sled + camera package. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinThwaites Posted July 21, 2021 Report Share Posted July 21, 2021 Hi Simone Max camera weight for the Aero 15 is 4.5kg or around 9lb. Sled is around 6lb. Robin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
