About Glidecam X-45

Under the umbrella of professional film and video equipment, the GLIDECAM X-45 Professional Camera Stabilization System stands out as a sophisticated and versatile solution for camera operators. Designed to accommodate cameras weighing between 25 to 45 pounds, this system offers unparalleled stability and precision, making it an ideal choice for those seeking high-quality footage in various shooting scenarios.

The GLIDECAM X-45 system is a comprehensive package that includes an Anton Bauer Battery Plate, X-45 Support Arm, Support Vest, X-45 Support Sled, Docking Bracket, and Arm Post. This system works by isolating the camera from the operator's body movements, ensuring smooth, shake-free footage even when moving over uneven terrain or shooting from moving vehicles.

The X-45 Support Arm, a key component of the system, incorporates 18 precision radial bearings within its T6 aluminum structure. This design minimizes friction and allows for smooth, noise-free pivoting and booming. The Support Arm's Light-Force technology ensures minimal effort is required from the operator, providing optimal camera buoyancy and ease of use.

The X-45 Sled, designed to hold cameras within the system's weight range, is a testament to sophisticated engineering and precision machining. It consists of four main components: the Camera Balance Platform, the Three-Axis Gimbal, the Dynamic Base Platform, and the Telescoping Center Post. These components work together to ensure quick and precise adjustments for optimal system balance and alignment.

The GLIDECAM X-45 system also includes a Support Vest, designed for comfort and adjustability. Made from high-endurance, dual-density EVA foam padding and integral T6 aluminum alloy, the vest distributes the system's weight evenly across the operator's shoulders, back, and hips. The vest's quick-release, high-impact buckles ensure safety and ease of removal.

In conclusion, the GLIDECAM X-45 Professional Camera Stabilization System is a meticulously engineered solution for professional camera operators. Its advanced features and high-quality components make it a standout choice for achieving smooth, high-quality footage in a variety of shooting scenarios.
