Features | The new Merlin Arm and Vest features a all-metal, Six-Ball-Bearing-Gimbal that increases the payload to 7.5 lbs and improves isolation, centering and operator control of the Steadicam MERLIN ultralight camera stabilizer. Together the Merlin Arm and Vest actually increase your shooting options. The operator can ease the Merlin back against the body and shoot ‘handheld’, with both hands on the camera, and fly seamlessly back off the shoulder and continue moving. With practice operators can fly the Merlin one-handed right off of the mounting post during a shot (docking the arm to the vest with the other hand) and execute those unique Merlin shot opportunities – ultra-low- or ultra-high-angles – and then slip it back onto the arm to continue the shot. |
