Chrosziel Rig sled characteristics, pricing, and user experiences

22 years old. Gear and prices may have changed since.

What the thread found

  • The Rig sled features a modular battery system, four-stage expandable post, tilting stage option, and 12/24v compatibility.
  • The Rig Light model was priced around 15500 euros without monitor, while the full Rig with four-times expandable post and electronic level was approximately 18000 euros without monitor.
  • The post diameter is 2 inches.
  • An optional tilt plate was available for around 1000 euros.
  • Hands-on users found the Rig to be versatile, strongly constructed, with notably effective green screen, frame line, and bubble level.
  • The Rig was primarily sold in Europe but not in the UK market at the time of discussion.
  • The Rig was not available in the United States during this period.
  • The Rig represents competitive pricing compared to professional-tier alternatives like Steadicam.
  • Material selection and craftsmanship were considered high quality, comparable to top-tier rigs.
  • The Rig functions as a sled component rather than a complete system and requires pairing with a separate arm and vest.

Depends on

  • Limited user base with few people owning or having tried the equipment at the time of discussion.
  • Availability outside Europe was minimal, limiting direct access to demonstrations for potential buyers in other regions.
  • One user chose an alternative product instead of purchasing despite positive impressions.
  • Availability as a complete integrated system was not offered; users needed to source arm and vest components separately.
  • Discussion occurred in 2004, making current availability and pricing information potentially outdated.
