Reason for selling: no longer operating steadicam. Some neat trivia this kit was used on films such as The Davinci Code, Cinderella Man + History of violence. I originally purchased it from the late Candide Franklyn here in Toronto. He kept this kit in immaculate condition. This thing is built like a tank.

Hi Gregory,

Being a retired model, have you had luck servicing it in Toronto? I’m out in Victoria, BC, will check with Cramped Attic in Vancouver to see if they do. Looks like a nice starter package for an AC on a budget. I just want to make sure I could keep it maintained.

thanks,

Brian G.

Hey Brian,

I have been very fortunate to have full service here in Toronto on the unit by a technician (saviour) at Panavision. He was the one that did the NPF battery upgrade for me this past year. Definitely have a chat with Cramped Attic about upkeep of the unit and then we can talk if you're still interested.

Best,

G
