Just a heads up. B&H does not have the Merlin Arm and Vest listed online. But, you can place an order over the phone. The item number is STMAV. They require a CC to put it on order. Card is charged at the time of shipment.

Great work on the video.

I'm testing the arm and vest on a shoot this week and will post results. I'm flying a Canon A1 with their wide adaptor, which maxes out the Merlin (all weights up, plus one extra). Uncomfortable to handhold for long, but a walk in the park with the vest and arm. Stay tuned!

Charles, any chance you can post some of the footage you shoot with the Merlin, arm & vest? That would be great!

Ok, will post some footage when mine arrives. I also ordered a Steadistand, docking bracket and customized travel bag.
