One Year On A Dedleg

News Image
Dedleg, the award-winning sound bag monopod invented by UK sound man Paul Zanders, has now been on the market for just over a year and the feedback from users has been fantastic.

Debuting at the BVE 2015 and winning the Best New Product Launch at the seminal London trade show, Dedleg was quickly embraced by location sound recordists worldwide.

The lightweight monopod that attaches to sound recordist’s bags, taking the weight off their back and shoulders, has proved to be a hit and has sold hundreds worldwide.

Here's what the users have been saying –

From Australia: "Just did my first shoot day with a Dedleg – amazing. Swinging boom with a 688 and fully loaded Octopack – weren't no thing! It's not cheap, but it's very well made and designed. So glad you guys have come out with the perfect realisation of all our dreams."

From the U.S.: "I wanted to write and tell you guys how much I appreciate your product. It's changed my job for me more than any other piece of equipment I've bought and saved me money on chiropractor bills."

From the UK: "I bought the Dedleg as soon as I saw it at BVE 2015. My daily rig is a relatively full on 688/sl6 combo in an Orca Bag on a Harness. In use, the Dedleg is brilliant, once you're used to it being on the bag, you won't want to take it off. Last time I weighed my bag it was way past 15kg, but this lets me swing the boom with greater ease. Worth a mention is that the customer service is exemplary. My advice would be just get one."

Paul Zanders says: "We couldn't be happier with the feedback. It seems the Dedleg is really doing what we designed it to do. We've also just been awarded a U.S. patent which is great news for our business and we are busy perfecting our second product for location sound."
