Tilta Hydra Alien Shock Absorbing Head with Soft Spring Module
The Hydra Alien Car Mounting System was designed from the ground up to be the perfect lightweight solution for car-mounted cinematography and this new Shock Absorbing Head takes that one step further.
This updated Shock Absorbing Head features an updated Soft Spring Module which is specifically designed to support lighter weight gimbals and cameras in underslung configurations.
The softer springs will not require as much weight to properly absorb vibrations which will lead to more stabile footage and greatly expand lightweight mounting options for the system.
We still recommend using additional counter weight on the Shock Absorbing Arm as it will perform better with heavier payloads.
NOTE: This Shock Absorbing Head is NOT recommended to use in upright configurations
**The Spring Element of the Soft Spring Module is NOT sold separately at this time**

Tilta Armor man 3.0 Arm (R)
0 out of 5(0)This shock-absorbing stabilized right arm for the Armor Man 3.0 attaches to the back of the Armor Man 3.0 vest when in the normal operating mode and can also be attached to the top of the vest when operating in the overhead configuration. When engaged, the arm has two adjustable tension knobs to allow you to adjust for the weight of your gimbal/camera rig as well as your preferred operating style (whether you want the arms bowed out away from your body or tight and compact to your body).
You can attach a variety of gimbal supports to the end of the arm to allow you to use the Armorman with any kind of 3-axis gimbal, whether a top bar-based gimbal, a ring-based gimbal, or even if you want to use the Nucleus-M handles on your gimbal. Each of these supports attach to the arm on a sliding dovetail-based system so that you can adjust them for maximum comfort based on your operating preferences.

Manfrotto MVGBF-CF Fast GimBoom Carbon Fibre
0 out of 5(0)GimBoom is the revolutionary new FAST boom developed by Manfrotto with universal fitting for your Gimbal.
From ground level to overhead position (drone perspective), the new Manfrotto GimBoom allows you to get more versatile and flexible use from your Gimbal, raising your production values to the next level.
Thanks to its standard 3/8” and 1/4” top attachment screw, the GimBoom guarantees an easy connection with your Gimbal. It’s exceptionally compact (hand baggage size with 51cm minimum operating height) and lightweight (800g.) And, thanks to its carbon-fibre construction – capable of taking a payload of 6.5 kg at maximum extension – the GimBoom is also incredibly strong.
The unique FAST Twisting Lock makes it quick and simple to deploy and extend, allowing the user to control the entire boom with a single gesture. With two risers and three telescopic sections, the full extended length is more than double (1.15m/45.27in) the minimum operating length (0.51m/20.07in), while the intuitive graphic design means locking and unlocking the boom have never been easier.
Three thread connectors arranged at 120° on the top of the middle section enable the GimBoom to pair with dedicated GimBoom accessories, with a handy rubber cap to avoid damage when placing it on the ground.

Manfrotto MVAQR-BASE MOVE Quick release system – Base
0 out of 5(0)MOVE is the first quick-release system to help increase your pace on set and make switching set-ups effortless.
It is designed to reduce downtime when switching between tripods, motion control gear, and stabilizers in fast paced, creative environments.
At the core of this revolutionary system is a flat base and plate set-up that creates a universal connector.
The flat base has a diameter of 60mm and mounts a standard 3/8” thread that is highly versatile, working with different support combinations (tripod, slider, monopods etc.).
By adding the bases to the various supports, and the plate to the camera systems, users can quickly switch their gear from one set-up to the next without having to stop to screw and unscrew different plates into position.
For rapid kit creation, a base for any mounting unit (tripod, slider, Gimboom) and a plate for any camera system (head, stabilizers, motion controls) should be included.MOVE base is made of hard anodized, machined aluminum, so it is strong enough to cope with an impressive payload capacity up to 20 Kg /44.09 lbs
Thanks to the precisely engineering technology used to develop this innovative base, the compact and light shape guarantee an ergonomic use in all the shooting configuration.
