This is super great! I have a Gimbal Crane and it was pretty expensive and I still can't figure it out. It's always hard to balance the camera and gets a little frustrating. I stopped using it, maybe I will consider something like the Monopod, similar to the Gimbal but so much more control. I Will be watching this video over and over, these are great tips and I'm going to ditch the Gimbal. Thanks for all the great videos you do, you are a true inspiration and by far my favorite tech/film related channel. Thanks again for the channel review. Merry Christmas to you and your family, 2022 is going to be a great year!

Thanks for these tips! While I use a monopod, mine has no tilt head, it's just a stick. I did not even think about it! I use it mainly as an extender for filming public events over other people's heads because sometimes it's difficult to push through the crowd to get into the first line. I have the camera screen turned downwards so that I can easily monitor the image.

Enjoyed the video! Thanks for sharing. I find myself grabbing my iFootage video monopod far more than a gimbal. Due to the time/effort to mount a camera on a gimbal, there is a tendency to just keep the camera on the gimbal for everything even if not needed. The video monopod is instantly ready and the camera can come off/on as needed. The one video monopod movement I use quite a bit is a "reveal" shot, having the camera move past a foreground object to reveal the subject. The monopod movement is basically the same as your dolly shot, except I turn the camera plate 90º so the camera is positioned to the L or R (sideways) on the fluid head. Start movement with the camera low to floor and raise the camera up while tilting the video head in order to keep the camera's viewfinder parallel to the floor throughout the motion (side-to-side motion not back-to-front). Hope I explained that clearly. 🙂 Easier to do than to explain in words.

Yea, it’s the XPRO w/ the 500 head ( amzn.to/3132Dq0 OR bhpho.to/3FBPvuv ). I haven’t used the iFootage but it seems like their features are pretty much the same. However, I have a lot of Manfrotto tripods and heads in various pieces of equipment so haven’t the same attachments for everything is nice.
