Hold your DSLR with Easyrig Mini Camera Support

Johan, the inventor with the easyrig created a new version of his handheld camera stabilization backpack, the easyrig mini which is particularly targeted at people today like myself when I am covering a convention like NAB. I was applying the easyrig mini myself although producing the video above by the way.

The Easyrig Mini Camera Support supports as much as 9 lbs of camera weight, relieves the strain of that weight from your arms, and leaves you only together with the job of maneuvering the camera in desired directions. (For cameras weighing greater than 9 lbs, please see the Mini Strong.)

For attaching to a camera, the Easyrig functions a rubber-grip, spring-backed hook that clamps onto a camera handle. The hook tightens securely in place by a knob on its side. If your camera does not have a handle, you are able to attach an optional common-sized 1/4"-20 or hot-shoe handle to it, no matter whether you happen to be working using a DSLR or camcorder. A protective transport bag also comes integrated and fits not simply the Easyrig but in addition your camera and numerous of its accessories.

Tied into a strong knot on the underside with the hook is usually a high-quality Marlow rope which can deal with as much as 440 lbs of weight pressure. Marlow ropes are identified across several industries, which includes yacht racing, windsurfing, and climbing. The rope is bound for the decrease portion of a crane-resembling assistance bar, and its resistance power is controlled by a knob on the Easyrig's back cover. 4 further knobs let you adjust the height from the help bar. In addition to a hip strap securely wraps the Easyrig around your waist.

I need to also point out that the a single downside I could think of is that the spring loaded cable does not run as smoothly as some delicate tilt movements would call for. A downside I am prepared to take in return for an unexpectedly smooth and uncomplicated camera operation. Quite practical when you happen to be operating about shooting for four days, 9 hours a day.

The easyrig has become an critical part of my kit to cover an occasion like NAB and I wouldn't go without having it anymore. It holds my HDSLR rig for me which suggests I can simultaneously use zoom and focus and on top rated of that it saves my back. I traded in my larger easyrig that I used final year for this one and utilized it for all of the NAB 2012 coverage videos, except Dante's Prime Circle function.
