The Kenyon Gyro camera stabilizer helps a camera capture clear shots in unusual situations, such as from a helicopter or plane. The device is compatible with any video camera that has a tripod recess. Operating a camera with the Kenyon Gyro attached takes some getting used to, but with practice and a few helpful hints, it's fairly easy to master. Soon enough you'll capture stunning images in circumstances where movement or vibration might normally ruin a shot.
Instructions
1. Line up the Kenyon Gyro lengthwise with the lens of the camera. Attach the Gyro to the camera by screwing the thumb screw on top of the device into the camera's tripod recess until snug.
2. Plug the three-pin XLR cable into the top end of the Gyro battery; only one port will fit the plug. Plug the battery pig-tail into the four-pin plug on the inverter on the back of the Gyro.
3. Press the switch on the inverter and a green LED will turn on and the Gyro will start to warm up. Allow the Gyro to warm up for 12 to 15 minutes until the internal wheels reach their maximum RMP, which is indicated by the leveling off of the high-pitch sound.
4. Hold the camera with the Gyro attached in front of you without jerking or making rapid movements. Allow your arms to relax and move with the motions of the Gyro.
5. Look through the viewfinder and begin recording. Follow the shot by moving the camera in slow, steady movements.
