The Boom-Buddy enables location sound recordists to change from hand held microphone boom operation to a static situation within seconds without re-rigging microphone or cables Single man crews can use the Boom-Buddy to position a rifle/shotgun mic precisely where it's needed without the need to carry extra kit - this makes it easier for a one-person crew to get great sound. It's so simple to use - just stick it on a lighting stand - use the Buddy Bag (supplied with the boom buddy) with some weights as a counterweight and you are away! The boom is gently held in the cradle lined with a "soft feel" finish. There is no clamping mechanism to cause damage Weighing only 305g it's a must for any sound kit The design allows the Boom-Buddy to used inverted so it can be clamped to scenery or even trees where a stand would be impractical to use.
We recommend that you combine the Boom Buddy with the Lightwave boom pole and a couple of 5lb sandbags or 10lb sandbags for stability
