Top Rated Gear: Used Cinema Devices Ergorig Lightweight Body Mounted Harness System with Carrying Bag, Regular undefined

Innovative weight displacement system to save the backs of camera operators without impeding camera movement - Regular sizeWe can now have the freedom of an untethered handheld camera without compromising our back health. The concept is simple: prevent spinal compression while allowing an operator to operate handheld like they would traditionally, without affecting the camera's movement or balance. 100% of the weight is transferred from your shoulder and back to your hips, bypassing your spine entirely. There is a way to handhold a camera ergonomically, and this is it.Measure from your front hip point to the top middle of your shoulder. If you're less than 21" order a small, otherwise order regular. Your front hip point is the part that feels like the tip of the triangle in your hip on the front side that is right around your belt line.

I love it?Great tool to have in your arsenal for hand held operating.  Highly recommend the Ergorig.

Ergorig is Amazing

Really good for large cameras on your shoulder. Structural vest with great support, unlike easyrig which has a softer feeling.

Good for big fat cameras

None of us are getting any younger, and the fact is that any camera on your shoulder is going to want to push your back out - simple as that, no matter what your age.
The Ergorig is literally a weight off my shoulders and as soon as I used it, I couldn't believe that this hadn't been created earlier. I've been filming for 25 years, and I wish I'd had this before.
This will ALWAYS come with me now, without doubt.
I'm less tired, I can work for longer without fatigue. It's a win on every single level.

I completely recommend this product.

It's a WIN on every level, literally taking a weight off my shoulders.

I work as the Camera Operator on an episodic tv show. We do a good deal of hand held with Alexa cameras. 35lbs over the course of the day adds up. The Ergorig is great for most setups and dimishes the physical strain markedly.

Ergorig

If I had to choose to take my Ergorig or my camera on a shoot, I'd take the Ergorig. In other words, I'd rather not shoot than ever shoot again without this fantastic support.

If you shoulder-mount a cinema-style camera, and you don't have a body like Jean-Claude Van Damme, you probably want this. 

I've tried other systems, like Easyrigs and Glide/Steady Vests, but prefer this for several reasons.

PROS:
- It does a perfect job of relocating the weight from your shoulder to your hips.
- It's effortless and fast to put on and take off yourself.
- It's 100% usable alone. You don't need an AC to grab the rig after every shot. You can easily drop the camera to the ground or a tripod without disconnecting straps or unloading/locking springs.
- It's NOT HOT; because It's not a backpack and it's not a full vest. Very little touches you other than the belt which is well padded and ventilated.
- The rig's center of gravity remains in line with your body. With a backpack and vest, the camera is out in front of you, which still takes a great deal of effort to counteract.
- It fits in a suitcase fully assembled and takes up relatively little room. I usually pack my clothes and gear inside its frame.

CONS:
- It's not as stable for dynamic shots as other suspended systems.
- It only really allows for two height options, shoulder-mounted or underslung (with a strap). And I don't love the underslung mode.
- For cine-style cameras; you need a built-up shoulder rig with long handles and good balance.

For me in the capacity of shooting documentaries where I almost always have a built-up rig to accommodate a large v-mount battery, audio, external video recoding, and cine-glass; the Ergorig literally takes the weight off my shoulders. I love it. This is an ideal solution, implemented and manufactured extremely well.
