I've been using the Steadicam JR for almost 2 years now for my wedding video productions. I'm getting good results with it until recently when I change my drop time to follow what was recommended.
I noticed that when the drop time is set to 2-3 seconds (as recommended) the stabilizer sways a lot more than when it was bottom heavy. When it was bottom heavy drop time is around 1 second.
I also noticed adding more weight seems to add more stability to the cam.
Do you share the same experience? Anyone of you get good results and stability with a 2-3 second drop time?
