The Suspender Working off any Walter Klassen FX harness our Suspender system provides overdue stability and support to handheld camera operators. Transferring the awkward camera load to your hips reduces the strain on your arms, shoulders and back letting you focus on getting the shot not on lifting and supporting the camera. The Suspender spar attaches to your harness and extends a boom above your head, from which a tensioned rope with a camera hook extends. By attaching a camera to the locking, flat-bottomed hook and tuning the suspension tension you can suspend a camera from the Suspender with virtually all of the camera weight being transferred to your hips. The result is reduced fatigue in your arms, back and shoulders. Combining robust construction with an adjustable tensioning system the Suspender is capable of easily suspending cameras 20 - 55 pounds, balanced for the precise weight of the camera The Suspender has 36" of vertical travel in the ultra-low stretch Technora rope as well as adjustable height positioning. This vertical range combined with tensionable horizontal rotation give the Suspender unparalleled flexibility. Bearings on all moving parts ensure smooth operation. The indexed hinge at the boom/spar connection allows you to set the boom at the most appropriate angle for each set of operating conditions. The hinge also facilitates compact packing by allowing the boom to fold parallel with the spar without any disassembly. The Suspender attaches to any Euro-style or later harness with an easy single screw adaptor for quick changeovers between shooting Steadicam and handheld. The Suspender is available for US$ 4750 and includes the suspension system, mounting and tensioning bracket, and comes with a compact hard travel case that's suitable for air travel. We also make adaptors that allow EasyRig and BodyCam systems to mount on a Walter Klassen FX harness.
