Revo SR-1000 Shoulder Support Rig

I've been using this with a canon XF300 video camera. It's a perfect fit. I have heavier rigs to use, but for "run and gun" shooting, this works best.

Really great rig for price.. makes hella of difference with stability, but the counter weight kills the shoulder.. maybe buy the move weight because its 2.2 lbs.

Works well, so far the only issue I've encountered is with the knob that holds the camera in place. When not in use, it easily un-threads during transport and can be lost. Apparently they can be ordered for $10 from the company's support...though I haven't found a way to prevent it from falling out in the first place. I strongly recommend picking up a 1/4-20 thread "cap nut" at your local hardware store to thread on when the camera is removed. I found some Nylon ones cheap at a store near me, brought the knob to verify the proper thread. I also recommend getting the counterweight, it's a bit heavier than I'd like but does a nice job of balancing my Nikon D7100 DLSR when it's all the way extended filming video. The only other thing to note, I found it immensely helpful to pick up a shoulder-strap (like for laptop or purse) and clip it to the counterweight-bracket and the bottom edge of the stabilizer adjustment. This way if I am out shooting and decide to remove the camera, I can just throw this stabilizer over my shoulder to carry it separately. Putting the strap over my head also provides an extra level of safety when I let go of the camera inbetween shots, as I fear the heavy weight would be too much for a normal camera strap if it fell.

Very good for an affordable price

Not as useful as I thought it would be. It's pretty heavy just to hold without the camera. idk. Maybe I was doing it wrong but it really didn't seem to help me steady the camera. Just wore my arm out.

HANDLE SNAPPED OFF FIRST TIME OUT ON A JOB, VERY POOR QUALITY MATERIAL IN THE BOLT. NO WAY TO CONTACT SELLER VIA AMAZON (WHAT HAPPENED TO THE "CONTACT SELLER BUTTON") ONLY CHOICE IS TO RETURN. WHOOPS; MY FIRST JOB WAS 35 DAYS AFTER THE ORDER, SO I MISSED THE 30 DAY RETURN WINDOW! ONLY GOOD THING ITS EASY TO HAVE MY MACHINE SHOP FIX. BUYER BEWARE!

Easy to assemble, looks great.. . .BUT Baseplate kept slipping on my camera (Nikon DSLR 300s) with a Nikon 24-70mm lens (2.8) causing my camera to turn laterally instead of stand firm. I think it might be better for smaller, lighter cameras. I love the look, weight, and color, but unfortunately I had to return it.

It may be pink, but this is a lightweight, durable, and cheap shoulder rig. I have used it on countless shoots and would recommend to anyone in the market for a shoulder rig. To those that complain about its color, spray paint is cheap too.

Used it today on a paid shoot. I appreciate the mobility it gave me. Sucks dragging a tripod around. This is the answer.
