Ready Steady Go! is a camera stabiliser system designed specifically for motorsport photographers on the move. Being a motorsport photographer, I have experienced that it is often difficult and not always possible to set up a tripod or monopod at a racetrack especially on uneven ground or in a small flagging booth. My design is based on the existing design of the monopod combined with a weight balancing system derived from research into steady cam systems used for video cameras. What is unique about this design is that it works in combination with a vest that has been styled specifically for the motorsport photographer to wear around the track. The vest is brightly coloured and some of material used in the design is reflective so the photographer can be safely seen at the track. It also includes a belt system which is used to support and help distribute the weight.
