Blackmagic Forum

We just recently brought 3 Blackmagic Design Studio Camera 4K Pro G2 cameras for our church. One is on a tripod on our stage (which is made from wood). When the base drum and base guitar hit hard it vibrates the camera (they are on opposite sides of the stage). If the vibrations are strong enough, we loose control of the camera, and have to turn it off and on to regain control of the camera. Do you have any idea on ways to reduce the vibrations felt by the camera. Thank you for your time.

Move it off the stage.

I use carpet made of recycled tires that are usually placed under the washing machines.
I stick pieces everywhere, inside computer on metal parts, under microphones, etc.
Low cost and heavy

To update, I brought some 5" high density foam, like in cushions, under the tripod legs. It appears to stop vibrations.

Isolation platforms and decouplers are also helpful in controlling vibrations.
