The Steadicam arm
Before you add the arm
The Steadicam arm supports the weight of the Steadimate-S system,
while helping isolate the camera from the operator’s movements,
and facilitates booming up and down. The lifting strength of the
arm is adjustable to accommodate a wide range in payload, but the
adjustment knobs can only be turned with the arm loaded. The arm
can be worn on either side of the operator by flipping the sockets on
the arm and vest. Here are the general components of an arm:
Refer to the manual included with your arm for additional details, how
to swap sides, and warnings for the use of A-series arms.
