I have observed massive numbers of DSLR steadicams, but like such a large ring, I have never noticed before. I discovered some information online about this Manfrotto 595B Fig Rig Camera Stabilizer. It weighs a mere 3.7 pounds and has an award-winning design. That's truly appealing and incredible!!!
I stumble across the Fig Rig when researching handheld rigs. I was extremely skeptical on how properly the Fig Rig would operate, thinking about it's a giant steering wheel. When I went to the photo retailer to buy (on spec) the Fig Rig, I laughed out loud and exclaimed "what a piece of crap, this won't function." To my glee, it's friggin' phenomenal. It truly is lightweight and easy to use. Most importantly it's effective. It is possible to really run with this factor and create a usable image comparable to as well as much better than lightweight Steadycams and FlowCams.
I ultimately decided to go with the figrig more than any kind of stabalizing arm due to its capacity to shoot sideways or upside down. Extremely easy to manage, and it did not demand any construction. It's delivered able to go.
The Manfrotto Fig Rig camera-stabilizing technique was the brainchild of film director Mike Figgis, who employed the idea on many of his award-winning films. Non-traditional in design, very simple and productive, the Fig Rig could be the only modular system in the world to smoothly assistance the DV camera when acting as a frame to mount the required accessories which includes zoom controllers, mics, mixers, lights, monitors, arms and extra.
With all the use in the optional 595CLA you could convert the Fig Rig frame into a totally loaded roving cine rig precisely positioning your mic or monitor anywhere about your camera. Add on a Manfrotto 521 series remote handle and now you may have total fingertip control of zoom and focus. Customize the Fig Rig for your liking. Manfrotto supplies the canvas to permit you to make your masterpiece.
Along with becoming a steady support, the Fig Rig is often a frame on which to develop your video technique. Your camera has only 1 hot-shoe for accessories, limiting you to one light or one monitor. Using the Fig Rig, you could mount many essential accessories for today's cameras. Features: Hand Pads - To get a comfy and secure grip even in the most extreme environments. Cable Clip - Supplied with 4 cable clips to keep all of your wires wrapped cleanly around the rig and out of the shot.
Basically a circular frame with crossbar mount for many mini DV cameras, the Fig Rig becomes yet another physique component to produce smooth, steady traveling shots. As the operator walks, their muscles and tendons absorb all of the shocks, transferring only fluid movements towards the camera. With no straps or harnesses attached to the Fig Rig, rapid and wide movements is often created within the similar shot from ground-level to overhead, all in one smooth movement. The camera, accessories and operator turn into 1, enabling for swift and unobtrusive filming, allowing for flexibility and expanded creativity.
