Hey everyone I've got a question for ya. Im new here.

On my next short film, I'd like to use a XL1.

I want a smooth moving shot through much of my short film. I've seen the glidecam advertised but nothing else. I need smooth steadicam shots.
What are my options.
And how much are they.
And where are they available?!

Also, let me know if you have used one in the past, and your experiences.


thanks so much

I use the vreezecam camera stabilizer. (Made by a one man company that only sells on EBAY) and he claims the XL1 won't work with his stabilizer just FYI.

Go to the search option and key in stabilizer, Steadicam or Hollywood Lite and your sure to get quite a few hits

See this thread (http://www.dvinfo.net/conf/showthread.php?s=&threadid=7304) and if you have enough skills you might
try building one yourself (www.homebuiltstabilizers.com).
