The Matthews Lazy Suzy (mitchell based) provides the cinematographer/ videographer with more creative opportunities through the use of an articulated double-swivel platform. This heavy-duty camera positioning device allows you to place the camera anywhere within a 25" diameter circle without having to reposition the dolly, tripod, or car mount rig.
The camera can be secured firmly for traveling shots, process trailers, or lock-off shots with the series of strategically placed 1/4" and 3/8" tapped holes. The Lazy Suzy will support camera packages up to 70lbs (30kg). Additional accessories and adapters are available, making the mounting possibilities limitless.
Each unit is made with 6161 T-6 black hard anodized aluminum. All steel parts are type 304 stainless steel. Bushings are made from black Acetal. All bolts, nuts, and washers are grade 18-8 stainless steel. The adjustment keys are made from steel with black power coat finish. Lazy Suzy is weather proof from minus 40f to plus 180f or minus 40c to 80c. Lubricant is never necessary. Mild soap and water is all that is needed for cleaning.
Disclaimer: Like all such devices, common sense and judgment must be used. The Lazy must be properly locked down when used on moving vehicles. Triangulating the system on moving vehicles is highly recommended to ensure safety of those around as well as for camera stability. Both top and bottom plates have strategically placed 1/4" and 3/8" tapped holes for triangulation.

Product
This is a great set at a great price. The ball head is strong and doesn't slip from vibration. I have tested it in combination with the suction mount on my car window and it work very well. The baby pin mount is great for use on c-stands and clamps, etc.
Hefty and wonderful. Seats into the mafer in a positive and secure way sits straight up and down when clamped to a stand. And the perfect length for my needs. Thanks!
This is everything we wanted. Everything we needed. Thank you.
Great communication about shipping expectations.
I've been using these clamps for small practicals, or small accent lights. They are sturdy and do exactly what you want grip to do. I love the small "nub" towards the end of the threat that keeps everything from unscrewing itself and falling apart. I hope to use these for years. I also appreciated getting a simple padded box with tools inside. No mountain of branded packaging to toss and junk up a landfill.
