Hey, Quick question... Has anyone ever mounted the MoVi M10 to a Steadicam Arm? If so, how did you connect the top of the MoVi (without top bar) to the arm of the steadicam?
I shall refer you to this photo of myself testing out a 3-section Zephyr arm and a custom Movi mount made by a company whose name I cannot remember… does anyone else out there know?
thats a Walter Klassen vest rig and Gore mount. http://www.walterklassen.com/home-p..._solutions/gore-link_handheld_camera_support/
Watch the video, the steadicam op in the first few minutes of the video,he has a ridiculous setup rigged up! Cheers, Blake
That's none other than legendary Steadicam operator Larry McConkey. He's commented on the forums before about making mods to the rig. The guy is an inspiration.
Wow, hows that for being recognized! Thanks for posting that! Have been lucky to be around Garrett a few times, super smart, super nice. Good to see the camaraderie of the two. Makes me lean even more towards buying a Movi. Would imagine not getting the same for the Ronin.
Recently we did first tests with the Porta Head 5 brushless gimbal combined with the steadicam and a custom connection bracket similar to the one Larry McConkey built. The bracket allows to move the camera during the take from ground level to over head height by rolling over the gimbal 180 degrees. The steadicam gives comfortable support to carry the system for longer takes and also eliminates visible footsteps in the picture. Best regards, Andreas www.portahead.de
