X & Y BALANCING ADJUSTMENT Moves back and forth, and side to side, to quickly allow you to adjust the cameras horizontal balance. By varying the amount of counterweight disks on the base platform you adjust the camera's vertical balance. When balanced properly the camera floats, ready for you to move into action.

GIMBAL SPECIFICATION - Wheelbarrow bearing provides Rotational control over camera so the camera can be easily rotated on its axis. - Grip swavels left and right from the bolt. You can easily move whole steadycam up and down. - Angle bracket enables grip to move up and down. The camera is mounted on one end of the 'Post', and the battery and monitor (and whatever special electronics the operator has added) are mounted to the other end.

FLYCAM BODY POD
Body Pod is a lightweight rigid body support system and comfortable which is used with Flycam 3000 or with Flycam 5000 movie camera stabilizer. It takes the stabilizer's weight out of your hands and arms and displaces the weight onto your waist and shoulders. The Flycam body pod supports your camcorder stabilizing system. Shooting with your movie camera stabilizer attached to the rigid support of the steadycam body-pod still yields results that are far better than unstabilized, hand-held shooting or shoulder supported shooting.
