Premium Members Charles Papert Posted September 29, 2007 Premium Members Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 Somehow I've managed to make it this far in life without having previously read this wonderful quote from Ansel Adams: "The single most important component of a camera is the twelve inches behind it." If we were to adapt this to our world, i.e. "The single most important component of a Steadicam is the...", how would this phrase best be completed? Have at it.

Michael Jones Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 (edited) Chas, much like your avatar suggests, "The single most important component of a Steadicam is the legs below it."
