MN595B
Revolutionary new DV camera support!
A circular frame with a crossbar to mount most mini DV cameras, the Fig Rig becomes part of the body to produce smooth, steady travelling shots. It is this very fact which is the secret to the Fig Rig. As the operator walks, his/her muscles and tendons absorb all the shocks, transferring only fl uid movements to the camera. As there are no straps or harnesses attached to the Fig Rig, quick and wide movements can be made within the same shot – from ground-level to overhead, in one smooth movement. The camera, accessories and operator become one, allowing you to fi lm scenes quickly and unobtrusively. With the Fig Rig your creativity is virtually limitless.
The Fig Rig is more than just a steady support. It is a frame on which to build your system. Your camera has only one hot-shoe for accessories, limiting you to one light or one monitor. With the Fig Rig, you can mount any number of accessories that are necessary for today’s cameras. With the use of the optional 595CLA you can convert the Fig Rig frame into a fully-loaded roving cine rig precisely positioning your mic or monitor anywhere around your camera. Add on a Manfrotto 521 series remote control and now you have complete fi ngertip control of zoom and focus. Customize the Fig Rig to your liking. Manfrotto provides the canvas to allow you to create your masterpiece.
With Manfrotto’s 521 series remote controls you can control zoom and focus (for Sony and Canon). With the Fig Rig you have complete control of your camera without ever removing your hands from the Rig.
