SmartSystem Matrix Sled Overview

Add professional-level stability and smoothness to your videos with this Matrix Sled Pro from SmartSystem. The Matrix Pro sled is designed to stabilize midsize ENG cameras and features a telescoping carbon fiber center post, a fluid gimbal stabilizer sled, a Smarthead non-floating adjustable head, a monitor LCD holder, a dual Gold mount battery plate, an additional Gold mount plate on the bottom for additional power and counterweight, and 10 counterweights.

The Smarthead top plate can adjust for balance and can quickly and cleanly mount and unmount the camera rig. The arm on the center post can mount onto an optional stabilizer arm such as the ARM X1 or X-LITE, which transfers the weight from your arm to your hips for comfort during long shooting days. The carbon fiber center post is height adjustable for working in a variety of production environments. The sled also features a docking bracket to dock the sled when it's not in use.

There is a dual Gold mount battery plate on the bottom sled that runs power up through the center column to the head, which features three outputs with different pinouts and voltages for output to a variety of cameras and accessories. Connectors include 14.8 VDC 2- and 4-pin LEMO type outputs, as well as tally and BNC video input/output options to pass from the camera to your monitor.

An additional third Gold mount plate is included on the bottom of the sled for added power as well as counterweight. The Pro model also features counterweights that allow you to add up to 10 included SmartSystem counterweights weighing approximately 8 oz each, so you can balance a heavier rig. The sled can be broken down and stored in the included hard-shell carry case.

What is the weight capacity on this sled?

What is the weight capacity on this sled?
Asked by: Gaurav
Every sled was designed to maximize the payload of ArmX1. The ultimate payload of ArmX1 is 34kg (75lbs). The total weight that matrix gimbal can handle is 34 kg (considering camera, lens, accessories and the weight of the sled itself). Smartsystem TEAM

What's the difference from the Extreme and the Pro version?
Asked by: Bubbles
The monitor LCD holder is on separate rods on the Matrix Sled Extreme making it more stable. You also get some more adjustment options as to where you want to place the monitor.
