The walimex pro elevator rig is a well-designed carry system for your one-man show as a photographer. It consists of a vest with light padding, a padded lap belt and a telescopic pole.

This makes the elevator rig your helpful, third hand when shooting.

At the upper end of the telescopic pole, there is a bolt with a 3/8 inch photo thread that any accessories can be attached to. At the bottom end, there is a 3/8 inch photo thread to assemble an extension pole or similar.

This means you have the possibility of adapting a flash head with a lighting control or lighting, and you can therefore remain flexible on the set without any additional people or support, and don’t have to take a tripod especially.

Even if it’s raining, the elevator rig offers an advantage that should not be underestimated – you can attach an umbrella using a clamp and simply continue to take photographs in the dry while others are stopping and seeking refuge from the wet weather.

The telescopic pole can, of course, be used separately; for example, as a fishpole or, if you are travelling with an assistant, as a boom, if the flash has to come from above. As described above, using the 3/8 inch inner thread, another extension can be screwed on the lower end to place the light source further away from the object.

One thing is certain – this functional helper is not only a great support for all photographers that sometimes want to have a third hand; it’s also a really attractive piece of kit!
