Identifizierung und Wartung eines modifizierten Cinema Products 3A-Arms mit Silver Springs für den Aftermarket und Anpassung der Federspannung für verschiedene Kameragewichte.
Was die Diskussion ergab
- Der Arm wurde als Original Cinema Products 3A Chassis identifiziert, das von Steadyrig (Australien) mit Silver Springs, Bronzebuchsen, Edelstahlschrauben mit feinem Gewinde und Steadyrig-Federabdeckungen aufgerüstet wurde.
- Steadyrig previously offered upgrades to existing 3A chassis; a maintenance manual is available from the manufacturer, and the arm is noted as easy to clean.
- The Steadyrig arm has a load capacity of approximately 13–63 lb (6–29 kg).
- A key advantage of this design is that the springs can be completely unscrewed and replaced individually per section, allowing the arm to be tuned to the specific camera weight in use.
- One operator mentioned Titan grease for joint lubrication, though this was not confirmed by other participants.
Hängt ab von
- Load capacity and spring tuning depend on the specific section configuration and camera weight range.
- Joint lubrication specifications were not definitively established in the discussion.
