The Matrix Sled Fusion from SmartSystem is a professional stabilizer sled designed to balance light-to-heavy cinema camera setups with speed and control. The counterweight kit can attach below the top or bottom stages, allowing a wide range of camera sizes to achieve proper balancing mass, while the SmartHEAD MK2 top stage provides micrometric fore-aft and side-to-side adjustment with automatic backlash compensation. The system weighs 9.3 lb without additional counterweights, maintaining a compact and manageable form factor.
At its core is the Matrix carbon fiber telescopic post, featuring a 40mm diameter, tool-free length adjustment, and internal routing for power and 3G-SDI video. The professional Matrix Gimbal uses dual ball bearings on all axes and incorporates a tuned intrinsic drag to assist safe, precise balancing. A dedicated monitor mount on separate 15mm carbon fiber rods improves placement flexibility without interfering with post movement.
Power is handled by the Intelligent Dual Battery Pack Plate, supporting selectable 12 or 24V operation via dual V-mount battery slots with individual power switches and integrated D-Tap output. The Fusion includes ten 8.8 oz counterweights, a docking bracket for balancing and storage, and a hard transport case, delivering a complete sled solution for professional stabilizer operators.
