Flycam HD-5000Stabilizer + arm & vest

Smooth handheld shots, on any terrain.

Designed for smooth, comfortable movement, the Flycam HD-5000 is a complete camera stabilization system that pairs a lightweight stabilizer with an adjustable vest and a shock-absorbing Comfort Arm. It supports DSLR and video cameras weighing up to 5 kg / 11 lb. The precisely designed handheld camera stabilizer uses a micro-balance mechanism for smooth, gliding movements, while its high-grade CNC aluminum construction keeps it durable yet lightweight, built to operate reliably for years to come.

Great for the DIYer!

I am a entry-level filmmaker, so my gear kit is pretty small. I had purchased this for a short film documentary for a local church and had a pretty fun time using it. It is my first Steadicam equipment that I have ever used so there was a bit of a learning curve. I used this in conjunction with a Sony Fs100 camera (about 7lbs with the kit lens). Great product, overall!
