Easyrig Minimax Overview

Ideal for documentaries, news, events, and more, the Easyrig Minimax is designed for productions requiring extensive handheld camerawork with cameras weighing 4.4 to 15.4 lb. Rather than uncomfortably handholding your camera and supporting the weight with your arms, the Minimax redistributes the weight of your camera setup through the body harness. Taking the weight off your arms enables you to hold the camera steady for longer periods of time while reducing fatigue.
Increased Stability
  • The Minimax not only redistributes your rig weight but also increases the stability of your shots.
  • The support cable, while transferring the weight to the harness, also adds a point of contact, reducing vibrations.
  • A redesigned spring system results in smoother cable movement with reduced friction.
  • A conical wheel unrolls the rope with increasing force as it is unraveled. 
Pivoting Arm with Camera Hook
  • The pivoting upper arm is borrowed from the Easyrig 3 Cinema model.
  • The pivot enables you to swing the camera to the side or even have it sit on your shoulder.
  • Mount your camera using the included spring-loaded camera hook.
Adjustable Weight Range
  • Turn the knob at the back of the Minimax to adjust the rig to your camera weight.
  • An overload protection system will trip if the maximum weight capacity is exceeded. 
Carrying Case
  • Includes a duffle-style case for carrying the Minimax from one location to the next.

Can I use this with a DSLR?

Can I use this with a DSLR?
Asked by: Julia
The Easyrig Minimax has a load capacity between 4.4 to 15.4 pounds. This is perfect for a DSLR Rig which is in that range. A rig will be necessary as you will need a top handle over the DSLR to use with the Minimax. For further assistance feel free to email us directly at [email protected].

question

would it be possible to get a ronin s inverted mounted on an easyrig mini with a c200?
Asked by: Leonardo
The question of a C200 on a Ronin S is a side track, but it is absolutely possible. I flew a C200 on the original Ronin S (not with a ready rig, handheld) for two years. There are limitations in lens barrel length (you need to use lenses shorter than most 24mm primes), and it requires a good setup and a little counterweight. But I shot 8 hour events on it, easy.

Will this work with the Feiyu Tech AK4500 gimbal with dual handbar and black magic pocket 4k?
Asked by: Angela
Max weight is around 14lbs for this. Keep in mind, an easy rig without a flowcine arm won’t stabilize your walking/the up and down motion of your movements and will likely exaggerate your movements.

what's the difference between easyrig minimax and Easyrig Minimax with Quick Release?
Asked by: Hayk
The Easyrig Minimax comes with a clamp that attaches to your camera's top handle. The Easyrig Minimax with Quick Release uses a 1/4"-20 to ball stud to attach to a 1/4"-20 thread. The quick release secures onto the ball stud.
