Description

Cinema Devices Ergorig (Standard) – Lightweight Body-Mounted Camera Support Harness

Overview: Professional Camera Support Without the Strain

The Cinema Devices Ergorig Standard is a lightweight, body-mounted camera support harness designed to alleviate the physical strain of operating handheld or shoulder-mounted cinema cameras. Ideal for cinematographers, Steadicam operators, and handheld camera professionals, it redistributes weight from the shoulders and spine to the hips, minimizing fatigue and long-term injury.

Optimal Weight Distribution for Heavy Cinema Cameras

Whether using an ARRI ALEXA 65, RED, Canon, Sony, or Blackmagic rig, the Ergorig supports heavy-duty loads without placing stress on the back. 100% of the camera weight is transferred to the hips, protecting the thoracic and lumbar spine and enabling longer, pain-free shooting sessions.

---

Ergonomic Shoulder Rest for Balanced Support

The elevated shoulder rest design lets your camera sit slightly above your shoulder, ensuring that you feel only light contact. This improves camera control without adding pressure. The large, level shoulder rest features a non-stick surface that prevents the rig from sliding and supports smooth workflow on set.

---

Full Upper Body Mobility for Cinematic Movement

Unlike traditional vests, the Ergorig allows operators to sit, kneel, run, or reposition with ease — all without added pressure to the spine. The harness is ideal for handheld cinematography, especially in narrative films, music videos, documentaries, or commercials requiring fluid movement.

Highly Adjustable to Fit Most Operators

• Height-adjustable along the strut for perfect torso fit

• Tilt angle and lateral position of shoulder rest can be fine-tuned

• Includes midriff strap adjustable for both male and female operators

• Designed for torso measurements over 21″ (standard version)

• Universal belt size fits most body types

Operators around 20–21″ can choose either standard or short based on comfort and support preference.

---

Underslung Camera Support Mode

The Ergorig also functions in an underslung configuration. By securing a strap from the camera’s top handle to the gripping pad on the shoulder rest, it fully supports vertical loads for low-angle shots. The midriff straps lock the system in place, providing versatility for varied shooting styles.

Breaks Down for Easy Travel

• Modular design for fast breakdown and compact storage

• Carry bag included for easy transport

• Comes with embroidered set bag

Developed by Operators, Backed by Orthopedic Insight

Designed by a veteran camera operator with consultation from an orthopedic surgeon, the Ergorig represents professional-grade engineering with health-conscious ergonomics.

Sizing Guide

Measure from your front hip point (top of hip bone) to the top middle of your shoulder:

• Over 21″: Standard version

• Under 20″: Choose the short version

• At 21″: Either size will work

The only difference is the length of the struts — both share the same adjustable belt.
