The Steadicam Merlin available at Digital Depot offers light, agile, seamless shooting for today's videographer and now even more so with Digital SLR videographers. Ultra-light and ultra-compact, the Steadicam Merlin lets you "fly" wherever the scene takes you - up and down steps, indoors and outside, through crowds - almost anywhere, with precise, elegant control and ease. Its quick release mount lets you instantly swap camera connections between your Merlin and any tripod.
Merlin's design significantly reduces fatigue - with a compact DV, balanced and ready to go, the Merlin weighs less than 1kg. Its rigid construction permits longer focal lengths than ever imaginable with a hand-held stabiliser. Merlin's unique dual extended weight system greatly increases inertial stability and its counterbalancing weight can be precisely adjusted to balance cameras from 200g to 2200g.
The new patent-pending "Folding-Calliper" hinge allows instant fold-up - perfect for shoulder-mounted shooting - and just as quickly returns precisely for hand-held camera work.
