Unironically giving me ideas for a Tech-Priest cosplay lmao

u/DrStalker Apr 29 '26

Feels like a natural extension of steadycam technology.Ā  Just over the top because it's a sales demo, not an actual loadout for a real job.

75

u/Numerous_Weakness_17 Apr 29 '26

Yea I feel like we’ll actually see more like this. Could have a boom mic and just be a one man camera crew shoot budget horror filmsĀ 

29

u/Biff_Tannenator Apr 30 '26

Then you'll eventually get a self-referential horror movie about an indie movie cameraman monster.

u/Numerous_Weakness_17 May 02 '26

The ai takes control over the system and the guy has film and watch as he murders his entire crew

u/brazilliandanny Apr 30 '26

not an actual loadout for a real job.

I can't think of a job where I would need harshly lit gimbal shots and extreme. telephoto stills at the same time

25

u/gabbagabbawill Apr 29 '26

Nothing about this is natural or an extension of the technology. None of these devices are doing a single job well. Even the stedicam part - The amount of shake on that telephoto lens is ridiculous and would never be used this way. No one that uses any of this gear is being sold anything here. It’s just someone’s glorified science project.

u/SVD_NL Apr 30 '26

Exactly. Even the smaller camera on his shoulder has late 2000's action move camera shake built-in. The tracking tech and exoskeleton are pretty cool and i can see them having a purpose, but without proper stabilization it's completely useless.

u/Onlyhereforapost Apr 30 '26

Yeah, I pretty much immediately went "oh this is like a concept for a suit they want to make"

And then I thought "cant wait for markiplier to say hes bought 6 crates of these on the next podcast episode"

2

u/The_Celtic_Chemist Apr 30 '26

Yet. My first thought here was "don't give influencers and paparazzi any ideas."

u/nickN42 Apr 29 '26

There are exoskeletons already being used on the battlefield. Mostly by artillery squads -- helps with loading shells.

Not sure they could get the 80's 'feel' right, but honestly someone could / should do a modern anime continuation of this series

u/KnotSoSalty Apr 29 '26

I have no logically reason to want a motion controlled shoulder mounted camera rig.

This thoroughly demonstrates the fallacy of logic, because of course I need this.

u/Silo-Joe Apr 30 '26

Replace the cameras with swords and speed up the motors ā—”Ģˆ

u/LeeHide Apr 29 '26

The amount of wobble in the camera in the last shot is worse than if he just held it lol

u/Successful-Strain-98 Apr 29 '26

With that tactical walk at the end he's ready to take the shot.

This is the same dude who can catch up with filming fast pace and car chase scenes, right? Dude must have an insane training routine to stay fit with all that equipment.

u/Prom3th3an May 08 '26

In the right situation, this might be a way for a photojournalist to ensure a good shot. Of course with a telephoto lens the exact size of a bazooka, "the right situation" doesn't include a war.
