IBIS camera stabilization can only do so much without warping the background. The best stabilization is when the camera is physically held in 3D space mechanically. Get it right the first time so you don't spend hours trying to fix something with software on your computer. Here are the items featured in the video.

Please forgive me for this feedback. To anyone interested. I just came back from the Great Australian Bight with use of the RONIN S & Lumix camera. It worked amazingly considering the environmental abuse it underwent in the places I took it. Fine ochre dust/mist/salt air etc.. though the weight of it became intensive over long distances. But over all, an excellent gimble. Thank you for this upload Markus.

I bought a mechanical stabilizer years ago and used it with my point and shoot Casio EX ZR-1100 and my Lumix GF6. You are 100% correct about needing to practice walking to get things smooth. I practiced at the park, the local temple, going up stairs, down stairs and even walked about a mile trying to use it. It was a lower-end unit that I picked up in Pantip Plaza for about $120 because I wanted to try doing walking around videos. Some sections of my videos came out really smooth but others came out a little too bouncy.

I use a stabilizer exactly like the flycam red king. By adjusting the handle/gimble you can flip it so the weights are on top and the cam on bottom if you need low angle shots, but you will have to flip the footage in software because it's upside down. Just a tip for people wanting to get a little more from their stabilizer.

Markus, I've been watching your videos for a few years now, and I really enjoy what you have to talk about. I have an X-Grip, and a hand-held mechanical gimbal. Both, I've had for a couple years. And to be honest with you, I prefer the X-Grip over the gimbal, because I don't have to fuss with any counterweights or the balancing of the camera. I can simply pick up and go. Anyway, thanks again for all you do.

I made myself a rig with a top handle and 2 handles, one on each side of the camera. A mix of the X Grip and the Vello Action you're presenting. It's already doing a great job even though it requires lots of practice. I'm doing landscape videos and it's really a key point to me to use gear that is light and takes a minimal space as a lot of hiking is required for what I do.

Hi folks, just watched this again. Fascinating and what a good explanation by Markus. I guess the '3D' challenge was why Sony introduced the combined lens and sensor gyroscopic pack in some camcorders. Also I guess it partly explains why cinematic pros do not like IBIS. At my age it usually takes time for things to sink in but Markus is a big help in speeding that up!

Hi Markus, Thanks for a good basic intro into different camera support systems. I'm very familiar with stills tech, but a complete newbie on video. I'm trying to get up to speed with 'convergence' and seeing where my Sony kit can take me with video. Much to learn and your overview of different support approaches really helps - as does debunking the myth that any given brand/model 'gimbal X' will suddenly be transformative and steady out all movement. Like most things in life I suspect that 'good' takes time and skill, which in turn is built from knowledge and lots of practice. I'm thinking of eventually buying a basic gimbal for video, but thought I would start with a Manfrotto fluid head that I ordered last week. Learning to walk, before attempting to run. Lots to learn with video - camera work, sound, editing software, production finesse, message to convey... aka story telling etc etc. I subscribed some time back, enjoyed many of your prior vids on flash, light modifiers etc and suspect there are a lot of video production areas you could usefully cover in future too. Thanks again - I appreciate your kind, friendly non patronising approach and feel that Carla adds to your channels unique look too.
