Revo SR-500 Manuals

SR-500 Video Shoulder Support System Thank you for choosing Revo and congratulations on your purchase of the Revo SR-500 Video Shoulder Support System. The Revo Video Shoulder Support System is a lightweight, affordable way to comfortably stabilize your camera while shooting video handheld with your DSLR or camcorder. The adjustable padded chest brace, padded shoulder mount, and ergonomic design allow it to fit comfortably on your body and offer solid support for your camera. Made from high-density plastic and weighing just 2.55 pounds, the SR-500 unit folds up for easy storage. The included baseplate and riser with quick-release plate give you flexibility and adjustability. This mount supports a camera weighing up to 4.4 pounds using the included riser, or up to 6.6 pounds using the long universal camera baseplate. Both the chest brace and the shoulder support are lined with comfortable foam padding, and the brace is spring-loaded to keep both the shoulder mount, and the chest brace comfortably and firmly pressed against your body, to provide solid support for your camera. This keeps both hands free for operating the camera―the camera stays securely in place in front of you, ready to shoot at any time. The camera can be offset by rotating the baseplate or the riser to the left or to the right.
