The most integrated and adaptable Steadicam® system ever made is now available in a more affordable option with the introduction of the new M-2 Core Kits. Specially configured and priced to provide operators with an entry point into the Steadicam M-Series ecosystem, the M-2 Core Kits utilize the same lightweight components and modular design that has made the M-2 an industry standard. All M-Series components and accessories including the Steadicam Volt™ are designed to be fully compatible, so as an operator’s needs change, their M-2 system can adapt with them.
The two Core M-2 kits share the same standard components, except the M2-VLKIT is compatible with V-Lock and the M2-ABKIT is made for Gold Mount batteries. Both sled versions include the M-2 Flat Top Stage with Dovetail Plate, M-2 Gimbal, 1.58” 2-section Post, Monitor Bracket, and Battery Base. The kits also feature the G-50X Iso-Elastic Arm with Steadicam’s exclusiveLift & Ride controlas well as the Zephyr Vest with Large Socket Block and the Padded Docking Bracket.
In addition, M-2 Core Kits are easily upgraded with the revolutionary Steadicam Volt™ active horizon assist technology. This lightweight motor drive measures and assists in holding virtually any tilt or roll angle to maintain a perfectly level horizon — leaving operators free to focus on movement and framing composition. This and other accessories may be added at any time for a future-proof Steadicam system.
M-2 Core Kits are now shipping. List price for the M2-VLKIT or M2-ABKIT is $25,500. The Model M2-V Volt Upgrade list price is $6250. For more information about genuine Steadicam products visit https://tiffen.com/pages/m2-core-kits or www.tiffen.com
