The Glidecam 2000 Pro is a lightweight, hand-held camcorder stabilizing system designed for compact cameras weighing up to 6 pounds.
Imagine a world in balance. Imagine smoothness, freedom and grace. 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. So good in fact are the pictures it produces that is by far the best and most versatile camcorder stabilizer available on the market today.
With the Glidecam 2000 Pro you no longer need a tripod or a dolly. All you need is your Imagination!
The Glidecam 2000 Pro's offset handle grip is attached to a free floating, precision Gimbal, which allows your hand to move up and down, and side to side, thereby isolating your hands unwanted motions from the camera. The up and down movement alleviates the bouncing, pogo type action so often associated with our competitors system, because their handle cannot move up and down.
The camera platform moves back and forth, and side to side, to quickly allow you to adjust the cameras horizontal balance. By varying the amount of counterweight disks on the base platform you adjust the camera's vertical balance. When balanced properly the camera floats, ready for you to move into action.
The Glidecam 2000 Pro will support any camcorder or movie camera weighing up to 6 pounds. It is quick and easy to set up and balance. Allows unrestricted Booming and unrestricted 360 degree Panning. Only 14.5" tall. Made of precision Aluminum. Can also be used as a Monopod, no-tools telescoping base, with positionable weight discs that allow you to achieve dynamic balance. You can easily attach a small LCD monitor to the base monitor mount hole if needed. Weighs 2.1 pounds without counterbalance disks. Camcorder not included.
