What the thread found

• The Sony Venice 2 is a tall camera requiring a basic camera support system plate or equivalent with most cage components removed to fit on the Trinity 1.
• When transitioning between Steadicam® and traditional sticks, significant setup time is needed to swap the top handle, monitor, and accessories back onto the camera.
• The Venice 2 is bottom-heavy; mounting focus motors on top of the rig improves balance.
• Heavy 150-series batteries or an ARRI sled counterweight are necessary to achieve proper balance with this camera on the Trinity 1.
• Without a top-mounted rail solution, focus motors may be the only additional equipment purchase needed.

Depends on

• Applies to Trinity 1 specifically.
• Balance depends on accessories mounted and battery configuration chosen.
• Swap time between Steadicam® and sticks depends on job workflow.
