Lastly, they attach via a ‘Rosette Knob’ that gives a full 360 degree range of
possible positioning.
Initial Setup
Handle Position
Just for reference we call the side of your stabilizer with the bounce damping
adjusters and rosette knobs the ‘back’ and this side should always face you when
filming. This way you can make adjustments on the fly.
Now you’ll start with the modules in ‘Upright’
mode. Even if you’re planning on using your
stabilizer predominantly with the modules
inverted you’ll find it easier to set up and
balance in ‘Upright’ mode first before moving
to ‘Inverted’ mode.
Loosen the Rosette Knobs until the handles can be rotated.
I prefer my handles pointing out at around a 10
degree angle but this is just my preference so
whatever angle you’re comfortable with. Some
people like the handles rotated in slightly as it
narrows the width for a narrower grip and more
compact form. Once both sides are at the same
angle just tighten up the Rosette knobs making sure
that the rosette teeth are meshed together and
locked in place. You don’t need to overtighten
these knobs, just tighten until you meet a firm resistance. You may find if you’re
shooting for instance while ‘crabbing’ to the side that adjusting the handles
independently to different angles may be more ergonomic for you.
