An interview from the 2016 National Association of Broadcasters Convention in Las Vegas with Devin Graham at the Glidecam Booth. Glidecam Industries offers a wide variety of camera stabilizers (camera stabilization systems) for use with motion picture cameras, video cameras, and video camcorders. These hand-held and body-mounted camera stabilizers create super smooth shots, and allow the operator to walk, run, go up and down stairs, shoot from moving vehicles, and travel over uneven terrain without any camera instability or shake.
Devin Graham, the international internet and YouTube sensation, whose staggeringly popular videos now have more than 540 million total views, accompanied by over 3 million individual subscribers, is pleased to announce the release of the Glidecam Devin Graham Signature Series, professional hand-held camera stabilizers. Jointly developed by Glidecam and Devin, the Signature Series combines many of the features of our popular HD-Series with the high-end professional features normally found exclusively on the camera sleds of their more elaborate body-mounted systems. The Glidecam Devin Graham Signature Series is the most rugged and sophisticated, state-of-the-art Hand-held Camera Stabilizer ever produced by Glidecam.
The precision, Camera Balance Platform (X-Y Head, or Top Stage) incorporates a quick-release, no-tools, slide-in Dovetail Camera Plate, Brass Alignment pin, Spring Loaded Quick Release Plate Lock, Push Button Quick Release that allows you to quickly attach or remove your camera. Ergonomic, fine-tuning, control knobs allow quick and precise adjustment of the Camera Balance Platform’s front-to-back and side-to-side movement. These controls allow you to quickly adjust the system’s horizontal balance.
The Glidecam Devin Graham Signature Series has a lightweight and rigid, no-tools, 1” diameter, Telescoping Center Post. For your convenience the Central Post has Guide Scale Markings for your Adjustable Knurled Three Axis Gimbal. The Telescoping Post features a safety stop to prevent the base from detaching from the Central Post.
A unique and proprietary, precision, no-tools, positionable Three-Axis Gimbal incorporates several adjustable, axis convergence controls. This allows all three axes to intersect for proper operational alignment. By changing the location of the Gimbal on the Central Post, you can quickly adjust the system’s vertical balance. This also allows for fast and easy setup of Low Mode operation.
The unique and proprietary, Dynamic Base Platform is designed to manually expand or contract. This allows you to easily adjust the system’s dynamic balance, or to increase or decrease the system’s rotational pan inertia. The Glidecam Devin Graham Signature Series Dynamic Base Platform has a 1/4″ mounting hole for mounting a monitor.
