This is the best easyrig video I've seen! Most videos are reviews of knock offs by people who have never used one. Thank you! (I just bought a knockoff at goodwill... but this will get me started!)
Really helpful video, thank you. Helped my technique when renting the Vario, and I've just bought the Minimax, which is changing my shooting style in a good way. Thanks Evan.
So I've used both an actual easy rig. And I own a flow line from pro. Rig, which would be considered one of those knock off brands and honestly. The easy rig is a lot more comfortable. However, the flow line still gets the job done. And it does so for a fourth of the price. And it is built like a tank. The longevity wise you're probably gonna get 2 years out of it. Versus an easy rig, which I know. Some people who have been running the same easy rig for 5 years. So if you're broke right now, but you're using a heavy a** Rig that you need to get some support for right now. But you don't want a stomach, you know? Renting an easy rig for 70 or $80 a day. Every time you have to shoot, it's perfectly reasonable for you to go for something like the flow line. Or something else? However, at the end of the day, if you have to choose between the two and budget is no option, then of course pick the easy rig
Sorry to inform you, your little Vox solid-state amp in the corner has nothing to do with the huge Vox tube amps from the 60s. The only similarity is the gold logo. :-) But, you are doing a great job. I will look for an EZ Strong as my gear is not so heavy. Thanks for the info!

When the guy is good doing what he does, he can Run and Gun even with an Arri. Great Video Evan. Great video! Thank you. And nice flip flops kkkkk
Great video. Really interesting. We are considering putting our Red on it together with a Ronin 2. We are a bit worried about the weight of the whole setup though.
would love to see the footage, right now it looks like the room is completely full of fog. Other than that very instructional video. thanks for the tips :)
Just got my EasyRig and tried walking with it... LOL! Needless to say my first thought was "i need to look up how to walk with this thing"... I guess it's just going to be more of a portable weight stand for my Ronin because I can't set that thing down so at least the easyrig can hold it for me when i need to rest my arms. i'm sure i'll get better at it though. the easyrig feels very well made for sure!
Great video: until 1:51 when you reached down to pull the cable the easyrig was invisible: you wearing black and no light light shining on the device didn’t help for the demonstration. Informative none the less
Thanks for the video. Can you easily pull off the barrel or is it recommended to have a follow focus with an easy rig? Trying to visualise the orientation and whats the least awkward position for the wrist.
great video. i have some problem with my ronin gimbal on it. i have a rig with a serene but there is a bouncing when iam walking . so for up and down movements, maybe a steadycam is the better choice. but love handheld stuff with a easyrig.
Sensei! I need your opinion. Do you think quick release of easyrig is secure enough? Or should I stick to the normal clip? S2 clip seems to be no longer available so I'm torn between normal clip with kong frog or quick release system easyrig offers.
Hi awesome video, I just received my easyrig mini max with stabil light arm, I understand that the top arm needs to be in the “middle” balance holding the gimble+camera, but what about the back knob that controls the rope tension, what is the proper amount of tension of the rope? Are you supposed to let the rope be loose enough so the camera drops slightly? Or super tight? please help and thank you
Peter van der Ham while wearing this, have someone behind you as your eyes basically guiding you where to walk while you’re just paying attention to what’s infront of u
I've been using it for about a week and can't get comfortable wearing it. I keep putting way too much strain on my back. I've adjusted every which way, and I just get fatigued after an hour of use. What tips do you recommend? I use a tilta advance rig/ronin 3 Pro with an external monitor.
Hey Evan, very informative! Could you explain what you mean by big camera setup vs a small one? Like where are the thresholds? I am a new RED Scarlet-W owner and am in the process of rigging it out with the production module and other accessories. I'm looking at the Minimax in terms of price but also have the same philosophy of buying the equipment that will last.
Hey.... Cheapskate over here... just to drop off some testimony. Watched your video because I got one of those Chinese knock offs to mount my camera... All was well and good. until I watched your video, learned how to operate the guy (great info btw), and shortly thereafter realised that the cable on mine started to fray... Thank GOD it went bust after only a couple test shoots... It's already been approved for returns and as soon as I get the money I'm gunning for the MiniMax.... which btw... do you have any input on? Lesson learned.... Easy Rig was not something I should've cheaped out on.... damn it...
Oh boy sorry to hear that! Glad the camera was ok (I assume). I used to have a mini strong before the vario, had no complaints! I'm sure the minimax is great.
Hey, if i Buy the easyrig minimax on teltec for round about 900$, do I need any other stuff? Or can I use it directly? And can I use it then with my ronin 1?
i had a supamod "easyrig" which was just 800usd with the "serene arm" and on the last job the rope just cracked. I will now get the easyrig. Not sure if the minimax is enough for my setup. Because i have a RED Scarlet-W and want to buy some cinelenses. But i like to travel light and small. But one question. What filter do you have in there while filming. Some kind of Black Promist? because the highlights glow so nice.
