Arri has some good stuff but way expensive. I think the idea is to rent most of what you need and not buy those $60,000 dollar rigs.

That's the thing, you don't need to spend $60k. You can do it by connecting a $200 Gimbal with a $150 stabilizer.
That's a pretty great, inexpensive option. A steadicam operator friend of mine rigged an original ronin on his steadicam years ago to get a similar effect. It worked pretty well. The trinity system is awesome, but definitely only for the pros. Its cool to see people coming up with a poor mans option

Nice one! Never thought about it before!
This trick is incredible and so cheap! The trinity is so expensive that I could never afford it but this I could try! Thanks for the tip!!
now that's clever
