Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Whats the official weight limit?

A: An official weight limit is not listed, but that is because this is a product that replaces the original camera hook that comes with your EasyRig. The weight limit will be the same as it was before when using this product, it will just depend on the model of EasyRig you are using.

Q: 2. 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: 3. Would my Panasonic UX 180 be too light?

A: Yes, the Panasonic UX180 is significantly too light for the 59 to 70 lb Load Capacity of the Easyrig 1200N Standard Cinema Flex Vest with Standard Top Bar & Quick Release.

Q: 4. going to order one of these, was wondering which size arm to get- is it more based on the body of the cameraman/ type of camera rig/ or type of movement?

A: Arm selection is mostly based on type of camera. No extension=ENG handlheld camera over your shoulder. 5 Extension=for handheld cameras like RED or caged DSLR. 9 extension is for very large cameras. You also have to select the weight so that the string matches the load as well. Having used the Easyrig I can say it is a useful tool. In certain situations, it is the only one to use.

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. May I know does it work the the Flycam basic flowline too?

A: Yes. The quick release aluminum clamp makes it easy to attach to many vest units.

Q: 7. 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: 8. Hi, I'm a Movi-Pro operator and looking for a rig to use it with, and separately for just the camera sometimes too. My question is, which is better, 5" arm extension or 9" arm extension? I've used an EasyRig 2, I believe, with no arm extention and it was a waste of time and energy having to hold it far out front.

A: 5 inches and 9 inches are not that far apart and depending on your setup, physical size and arm reach there is some overlap where either option may work for you. So to help you decide I'd look at the options like this: If you felt that the Easyrig with the standard arm was "too close" but "usable" then the 5" model will probably work for you If you felt that the standard arm was "way too close" and "completely unusable" then the 9" model is probably best.

Q: 9. For Gimbal work, MoviPro, is a 5" extended arm or the 9" extended arm better? Currently shooting with a Canon C500 and want to be able to use both the Movi and without the Movi. Earlier this year I rented a friend's EasyRig 2.5 and had to push the Movi far out in front of my body, which made the EasyRig basically useless, the weight was in front of the arm.

A: For gimbal work, 9" arm extensions or 5" arm extensions with Flowcine Serene stabilizer would be optimal for distance from body. If you need to do double duty, then the 5" arm may be able to work for your needs without being at the extreme ends of the standard arm or 9".

Q: 10. What is the recommended camera rig weight limit for this product?

A: The Falcam F22 Quick Release Top Handle can support at least 10-pound camera builds.
