This is the Glidecam V-16 system with vest, eclipse monitor, sled, c-stand, and bracket.
I literally just purchased this used, and realized that my camera is way too light for this setup and I bought the wrong vest and arm.
Notes about the rig: It was custom made with three powertool batteries mounted at the bottom to charge the monitor, instead of using the weights (thats what the yellow things are at the bottom). From what the previous owner stated, it helps make it much lighter and . Everything works and this is a serious beast! If I had a larger and heavier camera, this would be perfect but I'm using a DSLR.
Note about the monitor: The monitor shorted out, the previous owner told me. However you can get this repaired at probably any local shop that handles Glidecam. It could even be the fuse. The monitor itself has the following information about it:
SPECIFICATIONS
* DISPLAY: 5.5 inch High Performance CRT, Daylight viewable, High Intensity, P43 (phosphor #43) Green Screen Monitor
* INPUT SIGNAL: One Composite Video input (NTSC or PAL via switch)
* FRONT PANEL CONTROLS: Power On/Off, Brightness, Contrast
* REAR PANEL: One 4 pin XLR male Power In. Two 4 pin XLR female Power Out passthroughs. One BNC video input.
NTSC/PAL switch. 4:3 ratio switch. Video Termination Switch.
* EXTERNAL SUPPLY VOLTAGE: 9-30 Volts DC at 700 mA to 1.5 A max. approx.
* TYPICAL CRT LIFE: 20,000 hours.
* OPERATING TEMPERATURES: 1 degree Celsius to 55 degrees Celsius.

* SIZE: 6"W x 6" H x 6"D.
* WEIGHT: 5.4 pounds approximate.

Made in USA.

Its a real solid system that just needs some fine tuning to balance properly. There is no manual but I'm sure you can either contact Glidecam and they can email you one or you can find it on the forums. If you don't want the monitor, you can always swap it for an LCD, using the same mounts..
$2100
