Key Features
- 11 to 38 lb Load Capacity
- Reduces Strain on Arms, Neck & Shoulders
- Adjustable Line Tension
- Cinema 3 Vest
The Easyrig Vario 5 with Cinema 3 Vest and Standard Arm is a body-worn support system that is adjustable to support camera rigs weighing 11 to 38 lb. The system works by using a suspension line to support the weight of the gimbal rig, taking the load off your shoulder, neck, and arm muscles, and distributing it across your torso. The tension line is adjustable by turning a screw in the back, letting you dial in the appropriate amount of tension for your rig. The system consists of the Cinema 3 double shoulder vest, a Vario 5 standard support bar, and a standard support arm. A carrying bag is also included for convenient storage and transport of the Easyrig system.
question
Is this available in xs-small? How do you differentiate when ordering?
The size of the Easyrig is based on the camera, not the user. If an xs-small vest was made, it would not adequately fit the operator or be able to hold it's 39 lbs payload. The various Easyrigs are adjustable to most any body size. There are Easyrigs that are made for female operators as well. So that we may best assist you, please email us. [email protected].

question
going to order one of these, was wondering which size arm to get- is it more based on the body of the cameraman/ type of camera rig/ or type of movement?
Arm selection is mostly based on type of camera. No extension=ENG handlheld camera over your shoulder. 5 Extension=for handheld cameras like RED or caged DSLR. 9 extension is for very large cameras. You also have to select the weight so that the string matches the load as well. Having used the Easyrig I can say it is a useful tool. In certain situations, it is the only one to use.

Are you able to adjust the extended arm? I'm 5'7 and with the Minimax, I find myself to short for taller talent. But how comfortable is the extended arm in most cases?

Hi, I'm a Movi-Pro operator and looking for a rig to use it with, and separately for just the camera sometimes too.
My question is, which is better, 5" arm extension or 9" arm extension?
I've used an EasyRig 2, I believe, with no arm extention and it was a waste of time and energy having to hold it far out front.
5 inches and 9 inches are not that far apart and depending on your setup, physical size and arm reach there is some overlap where either option may work for you. So to help you decide I'd look at the options like this:
If you felt that the Easyrig with the standard arm was "too close" but "usable" then the 5" model will probably work for you
If you felt that the standard arm was "way too close" and "completely unusable" then the 9" model is probably best.

For Gimbal work, MoviPro, is a 5" extended arm or ...
For Gimbal work, MoviPro, is a 5" extended arm or the 9" extended arm better? Currently shooting with a Canon C500 and want to be able to use both the Movi and without the Movi. Earlier this year I rented a friend's EasyRig 2.5 and had to push the Movi far out in front of my body, which made the EasyRig basically useless, the weight was in front of the arm.
For gimbal work, 9" arm extensions or 5" arm extensions with Flowcine Serene stabilizer would be optimal for distance from body. If you need to do double duty, then the 5" arm may be able to work for your needs without being at the extreme ends of the standard arm or 9".
