Rigging my Cinema Camera on Amazon's CHEAPEST Camera Support

- Опубликовано: 22 сен 2021
- Is it a good idea to use a $30,000 video camera on a $250 support rig? Will It hold? Will it be comfortable? Will it even work? Why would you even try?

I found when using the EasyRig over handheld on heavier cameras, it frees my mind a bit, allowing me more mental energy to focus on composition
Picked up the EasyRig Minmax last year. Love using it with an IS lens. When it's needed, it really shines.
I've had one for several years now and it has worked perfectly with what was my 8kg+ camera rig. I did add extra padding into the back to make it more comfortable and that was easy to rig (pun intended). Even if I owned a genuine Easyrig, I would still never let go of the camera.
was on the fence but this review help me decide. I trust Crimson Engine and his reviews are on point
This is really good. I actually have a MiniMax and bought this for a second shooter and it's exactly what you said. It's not as developed but works great with a cinema C300 M2 rig. Def. worth the price for what it does. Fantastic review! T.
Lolololol, this has been on my cart for weeks. I’m so glad that you made a video about it before I purchased 😅🙌🏽🙌🏽
this video looks awesome. one of my favorite lit vids of yours. Nice job!
Great for a blackmagic setup!
I bought this product and can not recommand it. I want to warn you. The ergonomics are really insufficent and the spring mechanism is stiff. Don't waste your money.
We picked this up for our filming and was shocked how well it handled my zcam-s6 rig setup with dzofilm zoom lens, follow focus, hdmi wireless reciver, ssd card as pretty much a huge setup and handled it very well. As you said only down fall it's not for steady walking shots or steady cam work.
@VistaVision I'm using it on the Red Komodo now, which still works perfectly
I’d love to hear a 6 month review!
Great B-roll back saver and cheap!
I've always wondered about these super cheap easy rig knock-offs. It seems like its either super duper cheap or super expensive haha
I'm pretty sure they make a dampening arm for that system too.? I was look at it on ebay for my c200.
You brave, brave man.
Thanks :) The C70 really feels comfortable on it.
Great info… my question, I do a lot of high end real estate here in south Florida, have the rs3 pro / fx3…looking to shoot with the fx6 (because the evnds), I understand this easy rig does not stabilize. But with that said , the support it’s will give during the bigger 10 bedroom mansion shoots, when I dart with my slow ninja walk, will the tension of the string holding the camera affect the bounce(and this with me holding it as I would without the the Easy rig)?
01:57 😂 great video though
when something is nearly 10x cheaper then the next best option, it becomes hard to justify spending that extra money, when it's hard to know if it's really much better then the cheap stuff.
Have to tried it with a gimbal ? What are your thoughts on that ?
I've always wondered about these. I wonder if there would be a way hack/DIY a stabilizer spring system to this rig. Might make walking with it more stable. Thanks for the info!
That would be cool! I am warey of DIYing anything that's going to be carrying a camera, but I'm not the best craftsman.
And are you going to reinvent the wheel next?
You should try Flycam Basic Flowline which costs 374$
Really handy review. I’d wondered about the reality of using one of these, so this was a really helpful breakdown :-)
The shirt where to buy one?
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the point of the Easy Rig, to hold a gimbal, that in turn holds the camera? Otherwise the footage is just as wobbly as handheld.
Where is the link?
I had one of these and it lasted me 3 years, jokingly reffered to as the "Chineasy rig", upgraded to the Proaim Flexirig model which is alot more confortable and better built, but cost just under £1k
You should have called it the 'Cheasy Rig'.
I had one of those Chinese knockoffs before. Camera slipped off clip twice. (Thankfully I had my hands on it). Ended up getting the vario 5. Much better and more comfortable especially with the gimbal vest. Yea I know its expensive but it’s cheaper buying from Europe by at least $1000
How did it slip off?
@@johnnyweissmuller5838 hi Johnny, the hook on the knockoffs don’t have enough of a curve for it to sort of wrap around the handle also the rubber on the hooks are not good.
I've send people use those straps.. Frog things forget the name! But they seem to work better
How does it compare to the Flycam Flowine? Is the Flowline worth the extra money?
Depends on how often you'll use it. Flycam is better made and is more customizable with how it fits.
In an alternative universe, you could be a famous actor. You have the face for it. Also great informational video. Keep going. You are doing great.
Thanks :) I am much happier behind the camera and in control
Solid for a canon c100 mark ii with sigma 18-35?
For sure. That's a nice light rig.
Would you please tell me whats the software youre using at @3:51 ? That looked amazing and I wanna get it right away!
Oh Sure! Its called set a light: www.elixxier.com/en/products/setalight3d.php
@@Crimsonengine why use this over a steadicam or gimbal?
@@Crimsonengine Thank you sir!!!

How about attaching it to a Ronin S? That would add stability.
Many people use a stabilizer with a ring grip. It will make for smoother shots but won't completely get rid of the camera rising when walking. I find that a legit Steadicam system (sled, arm, and vest) is the most versatile stabilizer system but costs a ton more and requires training and practice.
Opened the bag of my safely stored Easyrig - Clone after one year to find out THAT THE GREASE CREEPED OUT OF THE HOUSING WHERE THE LARGE KNOB SITS ON AND IT GUMS UP! Same model as in this video, about 3 years old. The grease has become sticky like tree gum. Isopropyl alcohol and Acetone(!) cannot remove it. I didn't try cleaning solvent or turpentine yet. The backside facing the vest is clean. Looks like the balancing function is gone. Did anyone experience the same problem?
How would this work with a gimbal? I have the RS2.
I don't think so. The bounce is more than a gimbal can take out.
I have a Ergo rig much cheaper and slimmer than the Easy rigs.
So I bought it and the knob at the top fell and I have no idea how to put it back on HELLPPP
sorry! I'm not technical support :)
I thought this was Henry Rolling for a minute
As a retired Steadicam operator I think these devices are (at first laughable and) incredibly dangerous in numerous circumstances and are a major lawsuit (after seriously injuring or killing an operator) just waiting to happen. There are far, far better shoulder-mounted options that do not endanger the operator in so many conditions. If you can't hold a 20 lb camera without this piece of crap you're doing things wrong and you need to get out of the business... or get a tripod.
Anything that traps someone inside it without a way to get out or away from it in an emergency is a liability and just STUPID not simply dangerous. Devices like this encourage an operator to take risks with an injurious or deadly downside. Devices are not about what they can do in a positive situation it's about how safe they are when things go array...
Shooting a 30k camera with no ac? Who is doing that and why
People like me who live in small towns and can't find any crew :)
Haha, AC's are great! And in certain projects we won't crew up without one, but in a lot of smaller commercial projects or personal pet projects - AC's are strictly on the luxury list. My team shoots with c70's, c500mk2's, Alexa Mini's, Action Cams, gimbal setups, cable setups, ect... Owner operators are often their own AC's, it does limit what can happen on set but rarely does it limit the overall project and often, we have to work with what we have.
To answer your other question - because the more we use our cameras/equipment, expensive or not, the better material we can get with them. Cameras are tools like anything else on set, they are designed to be used in ideal conditions, shit situations, and everything inbetween!
Cheers,
