Glidecam V-8

Complete Glidecam V-8 rig with support vest, articulating arm system and stabilizer for sale. Used twice. Now sits on my living room end table and beside the couch because I am simply too old and not strong enough to utilize its full potential. Cost $3K new. Make me an offer I can’t refuse.
P.S. I CAN refuse offers that find it difficult to come in somewhere near $1K. You pay shipping.

What I am doing is trying to clean house with equipment I no longer need, or as in the case above cannot physically deal with any longer. This is part of my strategy for moving forward with high definition acquisition and editing early 2009, and becoming proficient enough in Final Cut Pro to offer editing services to the industry-at-large. Getting too feeble to do all the running and gunning I used to do.; ▶ Reply to This

It comes with a monitor, but the battery is probably DOA, easy enough to replace. I will work up a picture and send you one ASAP. Really stacked up with work at the moment, but give me a few and I will get you an image, or two.
Thanks for your inquiry,
