Steadicam Zephyr Feedback - Scarlet/Epic

[Ben Roper]

Just wanted to say a big thank you to all who recommended we buy the Steadicam Zephyr in order to fly our Scarlet. It's true - it really is the one to get. There are so many advances over the cheaper Steadicam models, not just the payload capability but also in the vest and sled design.

We also managed to book on for a Tiffen/Steadicam Bronze workshop (2 days) which was fantastic and well worth every penny of the £350. Tutor was Andrei Austin.

All the best!

Yeah the arm is awesome, so easily adjustable

Oh man I am so jealous. Glad to have been of help. That Zephyr is an incredibly nice rig for the price... I hope to own one some day, but so many other things I have to prioritize. Enjoy, Ben! Glad you enjoyed the course too...

Thanks! You'll get there fear not!

Zeph + Red

Zeph + Red

I have now flown pretty much every cam on the Zeph, I am currently working mostly with the F65 on a feature now, but the Red MX flys really well and the Epic is just about the perfect weight range in full build with a Red 17-50.

Thought I'd join in and grace you with this beauty... Chris, my operator of choice!...
