Magiqcam & Dynamic Balance

[Kenneth Kendall]

Greetings gents, since the Mcam is designed for smaller lighter cameras can it still me balanced dynamically, I can static balance but have trouble with dynamic balance-Thanks

It sure can, let me see, you have the older version, you need to move the 'washers' to a possition that creats the correct balance.

Let me explain myself better-I own the Mcam 2a and find it hard to dynamically balance.  I am using the DVX-100 with sunshade an sennhiser-100 mic on top of cam(not on side), cant seem to get it to spin on axis without  a nose dive or nose  up or maybe this is not possible with this rig- thanks

OK on the lower part of the rig, there should be 2 bolts with wing nuts, 1 on the monitor mount (about half way along and on the top) 1 on the battery mount arm (about 1/2 way along and on the top)

These bolts are designed to hold washers (they should have come with the rig), you move washers to the front or back as needed to get the rig to ballance during spin. I can take a photo of mine if you wish?

Maybe this will help

Kenneth, how did you go, did you get the dynamic balance worked out?
