Upgrading a Steadicam® Master gimbal to Volt specification.
What the thread found
- A Steadicam® Master gimbal cannot be retrofitted to Volt specification; the M2 Volt gimbal must be purchased as a separate unit.
- The Tiffen M2 Volt gimbal is compatible with Master-era posts via adapters that accommodate 1.5, 1.58, and 1.75 inch post diameters.
