Congratulations on your new Easyrig 3 gimbal rig! The Easyrig 3 gimbal rig is patended and specially designed by a photographer for professional photographers. Easyrig 3 gimbal rig is manufactured in Sweden and has been ergonomically tested with optimal results. The Easyrig 3 gimbal rig gives you the same advantages as our other Easyrig models with the added benefit of being able to adjust the line tension to adapt to many different cameras and configurations.
Using the Easyrig 3 gimbal rig It´s easy to get into the Easyrig 3 gimbal rig vest, just as with a backpack. Your Easyrig 3 gimbal rig is loaded with adjustments for your customized comfort. When the vest is adjusted properly you should feel the weight of the camera primarily on your hips. It is also important that the support bar is vertical. If not, the load will be unevenly distributed on the hips causing the camera to possibly contact the bar.

Safety precautions! Always hold the camera when working with the Easyrig 3 and Always attach the safety strap between the camera and the Easyrig 3 vest shoulder loop. Never undo the waist belt buckle when the camera is attached to the Easyrig 3! If the waist buckle is released while the camera is attached, the weight of the camera will pull the top of the Easyrig 3 down, and could cause you to lose control of the camera.
Some practical advice • Try to keep the camera as close to your body as possible, to avoid unnecessary strain on your back. • When filming upwards, you might find it easier if you have the camera tucked under your arm. • When filming at hip level during longer periods of time, rest the camera on the hip belt to increase stability. • Use the Easyrig 3 for transporting your camera to and from the filming site.
