Sydney Camera Hire’s rickshaw dolly is lightweight and portable, and is designed for use with 3-axis Camera Gimbal, Handheld, and Steadicam setups. It enables the camera operator to be pushed/pulled by a grip to capture complicated shots.
The hydraulic twin shock absorbers used on both sides of Rickshaw reduce shocks and provide stabilised shots, making it suitable for smooth or rough surfaces. The seat configuration allows you to have a long follow on the flat surface and then transition on to an uneven surface by stopping and having the operator walk away from the Rickshaw all in one continuous shoot.
The seated position also allows the operator to position the camera to reach floor level for ultra-low shots. The hydraulic seat offers 360-degree movement, height adjustment and four back & forth positions on the platform.
The main wheels feature 3 height adjustment points for adjusting ground clearance at 5” or 6” or 7” that allows the user to adapt the height corresponding to the rough and bumpy roads.
Telescopic Handle with length range from 32”- 54” allows ease of handling to the operator. The platform has 10mm threaded holes and free holes for mounting cheese plate or other accessories. The rickshaw supports 42mm speed rails to install a shock absorber arm with 3-Axis Gimbal.
You can also remove the seat, and mount a 50mm scaffold pole to the platform, to mount compatible gear.
