Easyrig Cinema 3 500N Gimbal Rig with 9" Extended Arm
Key Features
  • 500N Load Capacity
  • Supports Handheld Motorized Gimbals
  • Reduces Strain on Arms, Neck & Shoulders
  • Gimbal Rig Vest
The Easyrig Cinema 3 500N Gimbal Rig is a body-worn support system for camera operators working with handheld motorized gimbal rigs weighing 24 to 28.5 lb. The system works by using a suspension line to support the weight of the gimbal rig, taking the load off your shoulder, neck, and arm muscles, and distributing it across your torso. This lets you shoot for longer periods of time without worrying about arm fatigue. The system consists of the Gimbal Rig Vest, 500N shock absorber, and a 9" extended support arm. As the name suggests, the Gimbal Rig Vest is optimized for use with motorized gimbal stabilizers, providing increased lower back support that allows you to carry weights further away from your body. Also included is a carrying bag for convenient storage and transport of the Easyrig system.

Great Product As Advertised

By David
Rated 5 out of 5

I have been the this business for over 30 years. Back in the day cameras were big and heavy. I was also a lot younger. As cameras became smaller and lighter it extended my ability to shoot. However I recently moved up to a Sony PXW-FS7 with a prime lens, mattbox, and a lot of other stuff piled on it that brought the weight up to about 24lbs. So needless to say I needed something to help support it. I looked at all kinds of under support braces and saw the Easyrigbeing demonstrated at NAB this year and thought that looks like my solution. I emailed the company in Sweeden because I was not sure which rig would be best for me. I got a response the next day. A day later I had the rig. Within 10 minutes of the UPS delivery I had it on and was testing it out. It basically comes ready to go. As advertised it completely distributes the weight throughout the rig. you can place the camera at any point around you and it will stay. There would be no way I could ever shoot hand held without this rig. It does take a little getting used to, moving around tight spaces things like that. Make no mistake, you do feel the weight, but its well distributed. Great product.

If you've ever worked on a reality show you need an Easyrig. If you've ever gone hand held all day long with a camera that isn't balanced for your shoulder, you need an Easyrig. I've worked a reality show with a Panasonic HDX 900, Hytron battery, video transmitter, on board wireless, and Litepanel, handheld all day long, couldn't do it without an Easyrig. We own 3 of them.

Would this not work well with a lighter set up? ...

Would this not work well with a lighter set up? Say 12-16lbs. I often use the Minimax, but sometimes have heavier setups.
Asked by: tyler
This is designed to work with setups between 24 to 28.5 pounds. It will not work with a lighter setup.

question

Is the vest one size fits all?
Asked by: Thanh V.
For the most part, yes. I'm a relatively smaller dude... 5'9 155lbs. It fits me nicely, but all of the straps are as tight as they can go. If you are smaller it'd likely be difficult to get a snug fit. It looks very expandable from there though. My 6'2 220lbs. friend used it no problem. So if you are bigger/taller you'd be fine. Not sure what the upper ceiling is for weight/height. All straps are adjustable seem to conform to various body types. Hope this helps!
