About Glidecam X-30

Take your filmmaking and photography to the next level with the Glidecam X-30 Support Arm, a pinnacle of stability and smooth motion for cameras weighing up to 50lbs. Engineered with precision and care, the X-30's Dyna-Elastic Dual-Articulating Support Arm is a marvel of modern design, featuring 18 precision radial bearings strategically housed within its robust machined T6 aluminum structure. These double-shielded bearings are meticulously placed to ensure minimal friction, allowing the Support Arm to pivot and boom with seamless fluidity and whisper-quiet operation.

Crafted for durability and performance, the X-30 Support Arm is encased in hardcoat anodized Exo-Skeletal Shells, which house four high-grade Titanium Extension Springs. These springs are the heart of the Support Arm's lifting power, operating on Class Three Levers that interact with internal Fulcrum Points to effortlessly balance and support your camera setup. The innovative spring tension is fully field-adjustable, accommodating a wide range of camera weights and ensuring that your equipment is perfectly counterbalanced.

A standout feature of the X-30 Support Arm is its integration of Glidecam's proprietary Light-Force technology. This cutting-edge advancement means that operators can maintain the arm's position or adjust its height with minimal effort, providing an unparalleled sense of camera buoyancy or 'float.' This feature not only enhances the operator's control over the camera but also reduces fatigue during extended shooting sessions.

The X-30 Support Arm is a testament to Glidecam's commitment to providing reliable, sturdy, and versatile camera support solutions. Whether you're capturing dynamic action shots or crafting intricate cinematic sequences, the X-30 Support Arm delivers the robust support and fluid motion that professional filmmakers and photographers demand.
