The Steadicam Archer has an array of innovative features to allow for quick set-ups & tear-downs and to accommodate a wide range of operating needs.
The Archer is designed for precise handling. Its narrow 3.2”/8.1cm sled width with yoke mounted monitor and precision adjustable battery assure optimum operational freedom.
The sleek, lightwreight sled design allows it to be kept closer to the operator’s body, resulting in less fatigue and allowing an operator more options, such as manoeuvring through tighter spaces.
When set-up, the Archer’s flawless dynamics – with precision gimbal control and finely tuned distribution of mass – provides that unique Steadicam feel.
