Easyrig Vario 5 Standard Cinema Flex Vest with Standard Top Bar

Save your back with the Vario 5 Standard Cinema Flex Vest with Standard Top Bar from Easyrig. Using a suspension line to support a camera rig weighing 11 to 38 lb, this system takes the load off your shoulders, neck, and arm muscles and distributes it across your torso. This lets you shoot for longer periods of time without worrying about arm fatigue. The system consists of a Standard Cinema Flex vest, a Vario 5 shock absorber, and a standard top bar. Also included is a carrying bag for convenient storage and transport of the Easyrig system.

Features
  • 11 to 38 lb load capacity
  • Standard Cinema Flex vest with reinforced upper chest for female operators
  • Standard top bar
  • Standard lockable camera hook (quick release hook available separately)
  • Includes two 3/8"-16 and two 1/4"-20 ball studs that can be fastened to a camera, camera cage, or camera handle
  • Vest and waist belt made of breathable material
  • Made in Sweden
FLOWCINE Serene

The FLOWCINE Serene is a two-axis spring arm stabilizer that attaches at the end of the Easyrig (2/2.5/3/Vario 5) arm. It smooths video results by mitigating vertical vibrations induced by walking or running during a tracking shot. It also stabilizes side to side motion in similar tracking situations by counter-pivoting around its center axis. The Serene also allows for full use of the Easyrig spring extension for going from high to low mode.

The Serene supports rigs weighing between 14 and 44 pounds, and the spring tension can be fine-tuned without the use of tools. It works well with the separately available FLOWCINE Gravity One as well as other gimbal rigs like the Freefly MöVI.

Please note: This product requires a permanent modification that involves partial disassembly of and drilling into the Easyrig. This may void the warranty on your Easyrig.

Modifies Your Existing Easyrig
The Serene mounts at the very end of the Easyrig arm, and the string is routed upwards and through the Serene instead of the normal way straight down from the tip of the Easyrig. To make this happen, you have to modify your Easyrig arm by drilling one or two holes; depending on Easyrig model. A drilling template is included for the exact placement of the holes.

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.
Asked by: Jason
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 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.
Asked by: Jason
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".

I will be using the Sony FX9 and the Sony A7s3. Should I get the 5" or 9" extended arm with the Easyrig Vario 5 with STABIL G2 & Standard Gimbal Rig Vest? Small, Medium, or Large size? I am 5'7" 170 lb with 33 waist.
Asked by: Thomas
If you shoot from your shoulders, or very close to the body, stick with the standard arm. If you shoot from your shoulders, but want to have the versatility to shoot further out from your body as well. The 5" extended arm is the most popular, as it allows you to have the best of both worlds without going to the ”extreme." If you want the camera far away from your body, the 9" extended arm is mainly used for Gimbal purposes, such as a Ronin or a MöVI etc. You can not mount a Serene arm on a 9" extender. The large vest offers a waist adjustment range of 46 to 54". The medium vest offers a waist adjustment range of 33 to 47". The small vest offers a waist adjustment of 26 to 31". The standard-size Gimbal Flex Vest offers a 30 to 36" waist adjustment.

Especially for documentary work, would this be a recommended option for the new Sony fx9 (with the extension unit, v-mount batteries, external monitor, etc.)?
Asked by: Chris
This system is designed to work with a camera set up between 11 to 38 pounds. Just as long as the camera rig you have set up is between 11 to 38 pounds this system will work very well.
