Varizoom Flowpod - Stabilizing System w/Monopod for Cameras 1-9lbs
A superbly versatile DV camera stabilizer, the FlowPod can be used as a fluid handheld stabilizer, rock-solid monopod, or gliding low-mode tool. The FlowPod is used and recommended by filmmakers and wedding/event videographers worldwide.
Our proprietary handle & gimbal design can either be unlocked as a fluid gimbal for floating stabilizer shots or locked inline for stationary monopod shots. The slim design and narrow base allow the shooter to hold the FlowPod close to the body, relieving stress and enabling tight maneuvers in the most varied circumstances.
The optional Low Flow kit allows gliding low perspective shots and makes the FlowPod a 3-in-1 tool.
