LIGHTWEIGHT MAGAZINE’S CARRYING HANDLE
The Handle of the Lightweight Magazine (Steadimag)
can be removed in order to reduce weight or to be able
attaching some special STEADICAM® accessories. See
also page 135.
Handling:
Remove the Handle
[a]
of the 400/120 by unscrewing
two M5 hex screws
[b]
.
RIGHT HANDGRIP
For handheld operation, MOVIECAM offers an ergono-
mically designed Handgrip with built-in Run/Stop button
[a]
. This button works like an “alternating switch”: you
can switch on the camera with the handgrip button and
switch it off with another (e.g. that on the Camera Con-
trol Board) and vice versa.
Handling:
The Handgrip is screwed into the camera rosette
[23]
with a screw
[b]
which mobile latch permits easier
handling. Due to the rosette joint, the Handgrip may be
attached firmly at any vertical angle.
Do not forget to connect the Handgrip plug to the Run/
Stop button outlet
