About SteadiCam Zephyr Camera Stabilizer

Over the years, the Zephyr Camera Stabilizer System has emerged as a revolutionary tool for professional videographers, combining style, functionality, flexibility, and affordability. This system is a product of the innovative features derived from the popular PILOT, FLYER, and Archer 2 Steadicam systems, offering an expanded range of operating possibilities.

The Zephyr Camera Stabilizer System is a future-proof solution for camera stabilization needs, designed with an innovative approach. The adjustable and pivoting shoulder buckles on the new Zephyr vest design ensure a new level of comfort for extended use. The vest and pad covers are easily removable for cleaning or replacement, offering extended durability.

The patented Iso-Elastic stabilizer Zephyr Arm, a tool-free upgrade from the Steadicam FLYER, supports up to 23lbs (10.4kg) of payload weight. The arm/vest interface allows for quick customization to the individual operator, with "on the fly" weight adjustment freeing the operator from dismounting the system to make changes. The open design of the arm offers freedom of movement unparalleled in this weight class.

The Zephyr comes standard with a 7", 16:9/4:3 composite NTSC/PAL LCD monitor or optional 7" 16:9/4:3 HD/composite LCD monitor. The monitor features enhanced image quality and a wide viewing angle, making it ideal for field production use. The camera mounting stage is designed for enhanced mounting stability, with standard HD and composite BNC video connectors, 2 x standard 3-pin LEMO power connectors, and expandability ports for future accessories.

The Zephyr Sled Base features extendable rigid aluminum monitor and battery mounting rods, easily removable for compact storage or transport. The single mounting rod release allows for quick setups and ease of dynamic and inertial adjustments. The gimbal comes with a no-tools adjustable knurled handle with an ergonomic design.

The Zephyr Camera Stabilizer System is a versatile and ever-evolving essential tool for camera stabilization needs, designed to provide a smooth and professional filming experience.
