The specs you are quoting apply to the 'just released' Imac G5. I doubt you will find anyone parting with a used one since they won't have had time for the new to wear off yet. You will likely have to buy it new for $1799.00
Good Luck, -gb- |

Charles, what did you think of the JR? We've been experimenting with hand-made rigs (I have access to alot of engineering/machining talent) and are trying to decide if we want to build something better or if we should just buy off-the-shelf. The price is right for the JR, but I wasn't sure if we could do better ourselves.
We're shooting with small cameras now and the biggest thing I can see us using in the near future is a Sony HDR-FX1. (if you posted something about this elsewhere just a pointer in the right direction is appreciated, I looked but I didn't see anything). |

Jason;
I would point you towards the homebuilt stabilizer site, http://homebuiltstabilizers.com/, if you haven't been there already. A system with a vest and arm might serve you better in the long run than a handheld system. The primary reason I could see to get a JR rather than build something yourself would be that you consider the hours of building and tweaking to be worth less than what it would cost to buy the JR.

Thanks Charles, homebuiltstabilizers.com has definately been a source of inspiration for the work we have done so far :)
We're getting to a point where our productions are getting large enough that we don't have as much time to build everything from scratch like we used to, so I'm really on the fence with this one. I know that experience plays a large part of getting the most out of any sort of stabilizer so I was curious how you felt about the JR and what sort of results you were able to obtain with it. Do you have any examples of work you've done using the JR or was it more for personal/private use? You mentioned Zach borrowing it, is the work he did with it avaliable for viewing? Thanks again Charles. |

I hadn't used the JR for many years, which is why I sold it. The couple of jobs I did with it were in the early '90's, don't even have copies of it. I will say that even as a big-rig operator where many of the skills were transferable, the JR did require me to learn new skills and keep on top of it.
Zach borrowed my JR to do walk-throughs for a music video he was directing. He couldn't get either of his DV cameras to balance (I had warned him about that process) and thought it was a pain in the arse! If you spend plenty of time with the JR you can make some great shots. It does require constant fiddling for balance, but it does have the quickest controls for balance amongst its competitors (I think--I haven't kept up with all of the other rigs out there).
