The Smooth Shooter's
Dyna-Elastic™ Support Arm incorporates more than twenty precision radial
bearings within its machined T6 aluminum structure. The placement and
implementation of these double-shielded bearings produce minimal friction and
allow the Dyna-Elastic™ Support Arm to pivot and
boom very smoothly, and with virtually no noise.
Two high-carbon alloy, Extension Springs are
employed within the Support Arm's hardcoat anodized Exo-Skeletal Shell.
Utilizing Class Three Levers, the energy of the Extension Springs acts upon
internal Fulcrum Points, and provides the Support Arm with its lifting power.
The spring tension is field adjustable and allows for varying camera weights.
Our proprietary spring
Inter-X-Change™ system makes the installation and removal of the springs
quick and easy. The Support Arm can be setup and used in either a One-Spring
Mode, or a Two-Spring Mode. In the One-Spring Mode, the Support Arm can hold a
total combined camera and hand-held stabilizer weight of 9 pounds. In the
Two-Spring Mode, the Support Arm can hold a total combined camera and hand-held
stabilizer weight of 18 pounds.
A key design feature of the Support Arm is that
it incorporates our Light-Force™ technology. This
literally means that only a "light" force or effort is required by the operator
to hold the arm at any given position, or to boom the arm up and down. It is
this Light-Force™ feature that provides the
operator with the optimum amount of camera buoyancy or float.
