In this video, we show you step-by-step how to mount Cyclo stabilized head on your Steadicam™. Cyclo is a modular head, compatible with popular Steadicam™ systems on the market, such as: Betz Tools, GPI Pro, MKV Omega.
When sliding the camera on the dovetail, Adam says that you can put wherever you want, he likes in the middle of the cage... My question is: Will it help to find the CG of the camera and position it at the middle of the Cyclo 1? I don't have an omega, but that's what I always do just for steadicam, finding the CG before going to the sled. When balancing, Adam start placing weights at the top because the system is "bottom heavy", but after the jump cut, when the camera is finally balanced, the weights are at the bottom on the dovetail, I am missing something there... Would be so great if you have the opportunity to do some quick videos balancing other cameras for example an Alexa mini LF, Alexa 35 or Sony Venice, those are probably the most commons ones. Another question I have is: What about monitoring? Is the bracket Adam is using the one from SmartSystem? It looks a really good product. Looking fordward for more videos and information. Thanks
