Got the Ready Rig on Friday. Been playing with it all weekend and shot some footage using it last night.
Worth every penny!
Holding my heavy camera gear manually was really limiting me to what I could and couldn't do. The rig is to heavy to be able to hold with one hand and pull focus or tweak adjustments.
I tried a "normal" shoulder mount...after about 15 minutes it felt like my lower back was on fire.
But the Ready Rig is just amazing. The set up is PERFECT for you camera and rig accessories (monitor, microphone, ring light, ballast, etc)
And last night I put it on with the full rig attached. Walked around with it on for about an hour and then shot some footage for another 30 minutes.
No stress or strain at all. I felt fresh and could have shot for hours with this thing!
