  • Steadicam ProVid 2+
    The Steadicam ProVid 2 offers all of the same features for cameras from 10-22 lbs. A Steadicam telescoping carbon fiber center post replaces the standard fixed length. The Steadicam telescoping feature allows for fine-tuning the system's dynamic balance. Dynamic balance modifies the distribution of mass so that the center of mass is about the principal axis of rotation. At this location the resultant inertia forces of the rotating system is zero. Since an unbalanced inertial force increases as the square of the speed, spinning the shaft magnifies the amount of imbalance to a measurable level.

    Steadicam ProVid 2 Plus offers all of the features and benefits of the ProVid 2, PLUS:
  • Accepts cameras from 10-22 pounds
  • Dual-action Iso-Elastic Arm for wider range of shooting possibilities. No tools
  • Dynamic balance is fine tuned using the system’s 15-24" telescoping carbon fiber center post, replacing the standard fixed length

    The Steadicam SK2 is affordable, compact and easy to use. It's the perfect choice for small production companies, cable television stations, industrial productions or commercial productions. The Steadicam SK2 system fits neatly into the trunk of a car. The Steadicam SK2 is the ideal tool for cameras weighing 9-19 pounds.
