Glidecam
2000 Pro - Great for camcorders under 6 pounds!
With the Glidecam 2000 Pro your camcorder seems to float, always
balanced, isolated from your hands undesirable motions. Now you are free
to move with your camera-panning, tilting, booming or running without
any camera instability or shake.
The Glidecam 2000 Pro is a lightweight, hand-held, camcorder
stabilizing system which works so well that it allows you to shoot
incredibly smooth and graceful shots even while going to extremes like
running up and down stairs or traveling over rugged terrain. And when it
comes to normal shooting, like walking or moving the camera slowly
around someone, the results are equally magical.
Shot after shot, move after move, the Glidecam 2000 Pro delivers
beautifully smooth and professional results.
Glidecam 4000 Pro
Enter
a realm where you are free to move with your camera - panning, tilting,
booming or running without any camera instability or shake. enter a
place where super-smooth tracking shots and the ability to shoot fluid
traveling shots from moving vehicles are not just possible, they are a
way of like!
The Glidecam 4000 Pro is a lightweight, hand-held camcorder
stabilizing system designed for cameras weighing from 4 to 10
pounds.
The Glidecam 4000 Pro is newly designed and now has a no-tools
telescoping center post, a sleek and lighter base which allows you to
quickly attach and dynamically adjust counterweight disks, a foam
handlegrip, a lighter gimbal with a more compact main bearing assembly
and a new yoke design.
The combined results of the new design elements create a
stabilization system that works so gracefully and professionally, you'll
see why the idea of making a camera glide through the air isn't just a
dream, it's a reality.
Optional Accessories for 2000/4000 Pro Series
Glidecam
L4-Pro - Professional 4" Active Matrix Precision TFT
Ideal for use wherever a compact, lightweight,
high-quality picture LCD monitor is required. The L4-Pro works perfectly
when used as a remote viewing monitor on the base platform of either the
Glidecam V-8, V-16, V-20 or 4000 Pro professional camera stabilizers.
Weighing only 16 ounces and easily powered by an external 12 volts
DC 500mA battery or power supply , the L4-Pro can be used directly on top
of your camera as an oversized viewfinder or be attached virtually
anywhere.
Also available for the L4 is the L-4
Pro Optional Battery Pack.
The
Glidecam Forearm Support Brace
The first camera stabilization system designed to distribute the
weight of the system over the entire forearm of the operator. The weight
of the system is supported evenly by the exclusive and unique,
exoskeletal forearm support brace. This forearm brace not only provides
the operator with cushioned comfort while shooting, but also eliminates
the torque, which would otherwise cause stress on the operator's wrist.
With the forearm support brace, shooting smooth and professional looking
images occurs naturally, for the Glidecam system is now truly an
extension of the human body. The Glidecam Forearm Support Brace works
with both the 2000 Pro and 4000 Pro.
The Glidecam Body-Pod
The
Body-pod is a lightweight, rigid support system which when used with
either the Glidecam 2000 Pro or 4000 Pro hand-held stabilizers allows
all the weight of the system to be supported by your body. The Body-pod
allows you to shoot in cushioned comfort for indefinite periods of time.
It takes the stabilizers weight out of your hands and arms and displaces
the weight onto your waist and shoulders. Stress and fatigue are
virtually eliminated, allowing you the freedom to shoot events that
require uninterrupted shooting. The Glidecam Body-pod is designed to
allow you to quickly slide the handle of either the 2000 Pro or 4000 Pro
on and off its rigid support, so you can quickly switch back and forth
between hand-held stabilizations shooting and body mounted shooting.
Since the support of the body-pod is rigid and for the most part
inflexible, it will not absorb and smooth out camera movements as well
as a stabilizer which is being held in just your hands. However,
shooting with your stabilizer attached to the rigid support of the
body-pod still yields results that are far better than unstabilized
hand-held shooting or shoulder supported shooting. Once you get used to
using the Glidecam Body-pod, you won't want to shoot anything without
it.
