The Easyrig Minimax with Quick Release is a compact and lightweight camera support system designed for filmmakers and camera operators who need comfortable and stable handheld shooting for cameras weighing between 2-7 kg (4.4-15.4 lbs). This versatile rig transfers the weight of your camera from your arms and shoulders to your hips, allowing for extended shooting periods with reduced fatigue and smoother, more professional-looking footage. The added Quick Release functionality enhances workflow efficiency, enabling rapid transitions between handheld and tripod setups.
Ergonomic Design for Comfortable Operation:
The Minimax features an ergonomic design that distributes the weight of your camera evenly across your torso, minimizing strain on your arms, shoulders, and back during long shooting days in varied environments, from bustling urban settings to scenic outdoor locations. The adjustable vest ensures a snug and comfortable fit for a wide range of body types, allowing you to focus on your creative vision rather than physical discomfort, whether you’re filming a documentary on vibrant streets or capturing the beauty of the coastline.
Smooth and Stable Handheld Footage:
By supporting the weight of your camera, the Minimax significantly reduces unwanted shaking and vibrations, resulting in smoother and more stable handheld footage. This is particularly beneficial when shooting dynamic scenes, tracking moving subjects across landscapes, or simply aiming for a more polished and professional look for your projects filmed in studios or on location.
Adjustable Tension for Optimal Camera Control:
The Minimax is equipped with an adjustable tension cord, allowing you to fine-tune the level of support and responsiveness for your specific camera setup within the 2-7 kg weight range. This ensures optimal balance and control, enabling smooth tilts and pans while maintaining stability, whether you’re using a lightweight mirrorless camera for a run-and-gun shoot in the city or a more substantial cinema camera for a narrative project.
Quick Release System for Enhanced Workflow:
The integrated Quick Release system is a significant advantage for filmmakers working in fast-paced environments. It allows for rapid attachment and detachment of your camera, enabling seamless transitions between handheld operation with the Easyrig and tripod-mounted shots or other support systems. This efficiency saves valuable time on set, whether you’re quickly switching setups for different angles or moving between locations across diverse terrain.

Weighing only approximately 2.3 kg (5.1 lbs), the Easyrig Minimax is designed to be lightweight and portable, making it easy to transport between shooting locations.
