DigitalFoto THANOS-PRO Support Vest with Dual-Spring Arm for Gimbals

The DigitalFoto THANOS-PRO Support Vest with Dual-Spring Arm is built for heavier gimbal rigs and longer shooting days. Designed to redistribute weight from your arms to your waist, back and shoulders, it reduces fatigue while improving control and stability.

With a higher load capacity of up to 9kg, the THANOS-PRO system is suited to more complex setups—such as gimbals paired with monitors, microphones or larger cameras. The dual-spring arm design helps absorb vertical movement, reducing bounce and shake for smoother footage when walking or tracking. Fully adjustable for different body sizes and compatible with a wide range of single-handle gimbals, this is a practical upgrade for professional operators working with heavier builds.

Who this is for

• Videographers running heavier gimbal setups
• Event and wedding filmmakers shooting long handheld sequences
• Commercial crews using monitors, mics or larger camera builds
• Solo operators needing both endurance and stability

How it works

Support vest
Transfers load across your core, taking pressure off your arms and allowing longer, more controlled shooting sessions.

Dual-spring arm
Designed for heavier rigs, the dual-spring system provides greater support and improved shock absorption compared to single-arm systems, helping smooth out vertical movement.

Multi-joint arm design
Two adjustable joints allow flexible positioning while maintaining controlled, fluid motion during operation.

Direct gimbal mounting
The arm uses a 3/8"-16 mounting screw, with a 1/4"-20 adapter included for broader compatibility. A dedicated adapter supports Zhiyun CRANE 3/3S models.

Accessory mounting points
Two 1/4"-20 threads on the arm allow attachment of accessories such as monitors, improving usability on more complex rigs.

Why choose this system

For heavier setups, a standard support vest can quickly reach its limits. The THANOS-PRO is designed specifically for higher payloads, giving you better balance, reduced fatigue and more consistent results across longer takes. The dual-spring arm offers improved stability, making it particularly useful for dynamic movement shots where vertical bounce is more noticeable.

Ideal uses

• Wedding and event videography with full rigs
• Commercial and branded content production
• Documentary filming with extended handheld takes
• Real estate and walkthrough filming
