Q: 1. Are you able to adjust the extended arm? I'm 5'7 and with the Minimax, I find myself to short for taller talent. But how comfortable is the extended arm in most cases?

A: The extended arm has a 4 inch / 20mm adjustment. The manual on the product page contains detaled instructions on all adjustmens. Click on the overview and read the manual on right side of the page.

Q: 2. Is the vest one size fits all?

A: For the most part, yes. I'm a relatively smaller dude... 5'9 155lbs. It fits me nicely, but all of the straps are as tight as they can go. If you are smaller it'd likely be difficult to get a snug fit. It looks very expandable from there though. My 6'2 220lbs. friend used it no problem. So if you are bigger/taller you'd be fine. Not sure what the upper ceiling is for weight/height. All straps are adjustable seem to conform to various body types. Hope this helps!

Q: 3. Since the vest comes in different sizes (small, medium, large) how do I select the size of the vest?

Q: 4. I'm wanting to get an easy rig along with serene and ronin 3 axis gimbal. This seems to be the ideal vest. The work I will be doing with it will range from television/feature film work where an Alexa or similar would be on board but also there would be some doc work where perhaps I am using something like a C300 or Sony FS7. My question is whether the 9 extended arm is suited for all these cameras? Also if you wanted to use the easy rig without the ronin, can this same vest be used in a more classic easy rig hand held camera configuration? Just trying to balance one system for these two worlds

A: I can't speak to all the cameras but I shoot RED and Sony often with this. Its actually more useful as a hand held than with the ronin for me personally. While its very useful with the Ronin, a great deal of shots are limited by its range. I find myself shooting closer to the ground than the easy rig allows comfortably.

Q: 5. Hi. I am considering this with the Flowcine Gravity One. Do I need to order the Cinema 3 or the Gimbal Rig to work with that? I assume the Cinema 3? Camera is a Varicam35. Thanks for a quick reply.

A: Sounds like the Cinema 3 will do the trick. I cant remember the weight range of Cinema 3 but be sure that your total built camera is in the weight range or you will not be happy with the performance of the EasyRig. I went with the Vario because I expect to run different size and weight cameras on my Gimbal rig. Good luck!

Q: 6. Can anyone recommend a hard case option for flying with the Vario 5?

A: For the Easyrig Vario 5 with Gimbal Rig Vest and 5- Extended Arm, the Pelican 1650 Case with Foam (Black) (BH #PE1650FB), would support the dimensions of the Easyrig, when disassembled. https://bhpho.to/3cM3vJT

Q: 7. Would my Panasonic UX 180 be too light?

Q: 8. is the carry bag the STANDARD, PLUS, KING, QUEEN, ect. size?

A: The Easyrig Vario 5 with Gimbal Rig Vest and 5" Extended arm comes in the Plus Bag.

Q: 9. What is the difference between the Gimbal Rig and Cinema 3 vests? The images and descriptions are too vague.

A: The Gimbal Rig has a modified vest has been designed with a wider front, fitting around the waist and over the hips This allows the camera operator to carry weight further away from the body.Cinema 3 is the heavy duty model for 35 mm movie cameras with weights between 15 25 kg (33 55 lbs).For further information, please visit easyrig.se.

Q: 10. Would this not work well with a lighter set up? Say 12-16lbs. I often use the Minimax, but sometimes have heavier setups.

A: This is designed to work with setups between 24 to 28.5 pounds. It will not work with a lighter setup.
