DV EXPO HR-1 coming soon

Hello, i just wanted to chime in quickly and let everyone know i received the HR1 and WOW!!! The build quality is BIGTIME!! THe QR plate and mechanism is gorgeous and well crafted. The rig itself is Amazing , Solid and light, i have played around with it for only about 6 hours , learned it and got it balanced perfectly! This rig features a belt driven turn handle and rotating swivel plate allowing complete dutch roll axis and 360 spin, (you will need to remove side flags and eye brow for that) It feels more like a motion control rig or a steadi cam than a handheld rig!

I will post more later including video and actual use footage as the main shoot progresses through SEPTEMBER! Here are some quick picts from initial setup up for reference prototype purposes! Constantine, GREAT DESIGN, you obviously have experience with Steadi cam designs and movement, this is like choreography , and its a sexy beast !

Hello I have just released a new version of the Gangster the Gangster One Rig that is the simplest and most cost effective configuration of a shoulder rig. It allowes you to have free control of the horizon axis with out fixed positioning and that means not only that you can dutch with out bending your body but also that you can eliminate roll rerrors while walking or running controlling from you hands. The system include a chest and shoulder
vest so you can rest the rig very confortably with out stress on your shoulder.
You can balance any camera on the quik release plate and stage with no tools in one second.
The Rig has many taps 1/4 for mounting red lcd with red arm and any other accessories.
Its frame is the strongest and most rigid frame on the market today made out of Carbon fiber highest quality 38.1 mm tubes and 6061 t6 aluminum hard anodized CNC made parts. Its very light around 1.2 kgr and can support any video or Film camera up to 30kgr of weight ( not that you want that on your shoulder)
Its the cheapest rig of my products still the strongest on the market.
Delivering 2 weeks after payment . Payment by Paypal through my webstore
