I have an reeeeeally old Glidecam 4000 pro which needs to be replaced soon. I don' think I ever got it totally balanced perfectly because the 5D is a light weight camera for that system.

What's the modern best choice for a DSLR, Canon 5D IV with 24mm lens.

Any suggestions?

Glidecam HD2000, Xr-2000, Merlin 2, or DJI Ronin M?

Thanks in advance!

Blackbird. Hands down, Precision machine work, as a stabiliser should be. Love mine.
