The top of the range HandyMan Products for professionals. Precise and light weight, ready for use in a few minutes. 

 

 

 

Trim-post: 

The camera plate at the top of the trim-post can be moved in two directions by use of a fine tuning screw mechanism.  The gimbal is equipped with four extremely smooth ball-bearings and allows rotation in all axis. Made in Germany it is Laser tested with a precision tolerance of +/- 5/1000 mm.  The battery holder and the monochrome green monitor counterbalance the weight of the camera. Contrast and brightness can be varied separately. The monitor and adapter for 2 NP1 batteries are standard.  All wires to and from the camera are protected and carried through the middle of the trim-post.


Flexible arm: 

The HandyMan CN spring arm is a masterpiece of precision. Two independently working spring arms absorb any shocks coming from the operator’s movements. Over 40 ball-bearings make sure there is no noise during operation, movements of the cameraman are absorbed.  Regulation of the arm’s tension is easy and you do not need any tools, this enables you to vary tension for use with cameras from 7 to 14 kg weight.
For heavier cameras (14 to 25 kg) stronger springs can be inserted into the arm. The highly resistant materials used, and in particular those used in the spring-arm, guarantee long lasting satisfaction.

Harness: 

The harness system consists of three parts:  The special waist belt is made out of two shaped synthetic parts. It sits on your hips and therefore relieves your spine from awkward straining.  The chest vest stabilizes the complete system avoiding the system slipping side-ways on your body. It also helps to distribute the weight of the system to your shoulders. 
The vest is very comfortable allowing use over longer periods of time.
