Instruction manual

The ARRIFLEX Image Stabilizer
When this accessory is used a steady, upright image can be
produced in the viewfinder and on the film in situations when
the camera is shaken and jolted.
The Stabilizer is light and so is ideally suited for hand-held
shots. The Stabilizer works on a gyro-scope principle which
must be borne in mind when panning the camera. The
maximum panning speed is 4
o
/sec. The Stabilizer can be
used horizontally or vertically; it is fixed onto the bridge plate
rods and, according to the length of the lens used, is held in
position with a clamp screw. The ARRI light-weight matte
box provides sufficient shade; if required, an additional light-
weight matte box holder can be mounted on the rear clamp
ring of the Stabilizer for inserting filters between the lens and
the Stabilizer.
