Re: DV Rigpro
Everyone has provided some great tips. I used the DV Rigpro for a doc shoot in Poland and had great results. For me, the trick was positioning the back plate in such a way that the camera seemed like a natural extension of my body. I also tightened the belt to the point where I didn't have slippage. The spring mechanism should alos be adjusted so that you can easily make minor adjustments. Finally, you want to mount the camera at the proper position, so that if you are using the flip out viewfinder you can check the screen without getting neck strain.
