Premium Members Peter Schmehl Posted October 10, 2008 Premium Members Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 Hey guys, I dont know what the Chinese are aiming at, but certainly not a good steadicam. I`ve tried it on myself at this years NAB. It wasnt only funny, cuz they put the whole thing on me, I didnt have to move a finger, but the whole stand there smelled like tar, it was horrible. The System itself is a very poor copy and doesnt compare to any other alternative system that is out there. The Arm is the worst I have ever seen, the Sled doesnt behave right at all, looks alright, but thats about it. And dont get me started with the vest... if I would have put that on for more than 10 mins I would get serious backproblems, horrible. For every newbie here on the forum, dont you dare trying to get a hold of that chinese piece of metal. Great food, cars are getting a bit better, but still suck.... Steadicam? NO WAY!!! Take care guys Peter PS: Sorry, had to get that off my chest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
