Floatcam FC12

Introducing the new Floatcam Pro FC12 pro rig.


The FC12 is designed for the cost conscious and competitive world of independent production. It is capable of flying any current 12V professional camera including HDcam, DVCProHD including Varicam, XDcamHD, DigiBeta, DVcam, ProHD and all current SD cameras. It will also accommodate 24V film cameras such as the Arri 416, Arri 235 and Aaton XTR Prod (with on-board batteries), making it a truly flexible addition to your camera kit.


Building on the success of the popular FC11, we developed the new FC12 rig to offer truly professional level camera stabilisation equipment at an astonishing price.


Featuring an FC12 pro sled with a wider, stronger telescopic centre post, new precision gimbal, machined handgrip and new integrated video and 12v power, as well as redesigned top stage with side-to-side and fore-aft geared adjustment the FC12 will happily fly professional cameras up to 12kg. So whether you shoot on DV, DVcam, Hdcam, Varicam or 16mm, the FC11 can fly it all! With our new 12v battery mounts in either Anton Bauer Gold or Sony/IDX/Hawkwoods V-lock style mounts, you can even use your existing camera batteries or choose from our extensive range of Pro-X and Swit professional battery systems.


With a choice of 7” & 8” LCD monitors and proprietary battery systems, the FC12 offers a truly professional alternative to other Video Steadicam systems.


The FC12 is the perfect rig for beginners or occasional users, independent production companies and rental companies, or even as a low cost 2nd rig for professional Steadicam (tm) operators. For more details or to arrange a demo, contact us today.
