Glidecam 4000 Pro Overview
Glidecam 4000 Pro
The 4000 Pro is 18" tall and supports any camcorder weighing from 4-10 pounds.
Easy to set up and balance, they allow unrestricted booming and 360 degree panning.
Offset handle grip is attached to a free-floating precision Gimbal, allowing hand movement up and down and side to side, thereby isolating unwanted hand interference from the camera. The up and down movement alleviates the bouncing pogo-type action associated with other systems whose handles can't move up and down.
You can shoot upside-down, sideways, low near the ground, overhead and angled, as in a Dutch shot.
The system's free floating, precision gimbal includes integrally shielded bearings, two of which are housed in the unique Offset Handle grip. These precision bearings create the super-smooth and pivotable connection between your arm and the unit's Central Support Post.
Counterweights on the Base Platform can be quickly attached or adjusted while the system is resting in an upright position on its base.
Camera platform moves back and forth and side to side, allowing quick adjustment of your camera's horizontal balance. Camera's vertical balance is adjusted by varying the amount of counterweight disks on the base platform. When balanced properly the camera floats, ready for you to move into action.
For remote viewing, an optional LCD monitor can be attached to the mounting holes on the base platform.
Can also be used as a Monopod.
Body-Pod
A lightweight rigid support system, which lets you, shoot in cushioned comfort for indefinite periods of time. By taking the weight of the Stabilizer off your hands and arms and placing it onto your waist and shoulders, the Body Pod virtually eliminates stress and fatigue, allowing you the freedom to shoot events that require uninterrupted shooting.
The Body Pod is designed to allow you to quickly slide the handle of the Glidecam 4000 PRO on and off its rigid support, permitting quick back and forth switching between hand-held stabilization shooting and body mounted shooting.
Use the system while on the move, such as when walking up and down stairs around your subject matter. You can also become a sort of mobile tripod, maintaining your position while shooting, yet being able to quickly and easily change shooting location, based upon the shooting requirements.
The Body Pod is especially suited for commercial, industrial and corporate videography, such as weddings, real estate videos, sporting events, etc. The system allows you to leave your tripod behind, rendering you free to move about and shoot from places you would normally be unable to shoot quickly from.
L4-PRO 4-inch LCD Monitor
A compact, lightweight, high quality picture LCD monitor, the L4-PRO is ideal when used as a remote viewing monitor on the base platform of the Glidecam 4000 Pro. Easily powered by the included external 12v DC 500mA battery. Electrical cables and adapters not included.
4" TFT Active Matrix Full Color or B&W Display; Fast Response with No Streaking, Wide Viewing Angle.
