Hi again, I got the Hague unit today and I see what you mean about the ball joint you need to be careful not to over angle it. It takes a while to adjust but once I got the hang of it I was impressed at the potential. I'll have to practise with my DSLR then put up some footage to see how it comes out... and also research some modifications like you have it would be good to get a more sturdy gimbal long term.
Maybe you could show us how you modified the gimball and with which component. Would be nice to be able to buy this as it performs better than the original Hague MMC stabiliser.
@Aafiah23 I used a ball transfer unit, which you need getting used to when using as a gimbal. But I found that it works better than a universal joint. This it the type that I used to make my gimbal.
@MaKsPuA No, I didn't use any software to stabilize the video. I also had the on-camera stabilizer off, which is better. I do like my gimbal better than the original ball socket handle which had a lot of fiction and didn't give a smooth panning.
@superscheu Hey~~~! Didn't you watch any of my previous videos? I've been using my DIY steadicam for all of them. Yes, these stabilizers takes out the shaking while walking with a camera so goodby motion sickness. I bought this one, Hauge mini motion cam for about 12,000 yen from England online. I didn't like the original handle part called a gimbal, and modified it with my own which works better. But these are susceptible to the wind. But it's very nice to have one.
@Enfeeblement Thanks. It is stable but compared with my larger diy steadicam it's not too stable. The size and the weight does matter for smoother video. When I took the sample video it was also windy and steadicams are vulnerable to the wind.

Wow I also have the MMC but yours looks more steadi, did you stabilized the footage on your software during the edit ?

@P1NKL1ON どうも、今年も宜しくお願いします。ひじには全然当たりません。そんなに重くでもないです。ただサイズ的に自作のステディカムに比べるとやはり大き方がバランスもしやすいしコントロールもしやすい事が分かりました。

Very nice! The video looks very stable and doesn't shake whatsoever!
