The nano rigs, which cost no more than 500 US dollars, stabilise and support the camera – combined with the camera’s image stabilisation, the film gains enough sharpness for the subject to be recognisable. Available as the “Runner” (with shoulder support), “Low Down” (with a handle for shots close to the ground) and “running man” (with a handle on the sensor axis and shoulder support), they prepare the space- and budget-conscious camera operator for almost any shot.
A video from dslrnewsshooter.com shows a demonstration of the rigs at the NBA.
