Canon 7D with FlyCam 3000 Running Backwards, Amazingly Smooth

[genenorman]

That's the cutest thing I've seen in a long time :-)

[drwklam888]

With such beautiful laugh and happiness of both the subject and the cameraman, it worth more than the money! Lovely video!

[charlesantoinecyr]

did you use the boday strap for this because im am about to buy the flycam but i dont know if its worth it with the body strap

[franKruleR]

this is the only smooth flycam 3000 footage i have found after spending 2 days of research. it seams to me, that the flycam users do not practice :)

[gaboaaa23]

your son is so cute!;)

[elliottower123]

Cool. How does this compare to the 1000 or the DSLR or nano? Is it worth the extra cost?

I hear it supports more weight, but my t2i setup only weighs like 3 lbs.

[Karlobster]

ha! This really brightened up my day XD

[namza68]

Pretty good balancing you have there....

[nickstan006]

[TheRealColeKane]

After watching dozen's of videos this is the one that sold me on flycam!

[JohnboyStudios]

[scottdoggsmr]

[buyxbox360dotnet]

Your son is very positive and you (sorry for saying this) have a sexy laugh)))

p.s. i'm thinking to buy Flycam? as an alternative for DSLR Kit...

[HisPresenceMedia]

@buyxbox360dotnet

Flycam has great usage, Ie: if you're trying to get that "flying camera" look. but for everyday shooting,

like interviews or run and gun stuff, where you might need to focus the lens manually or zoom, I would get

a shoulder rig. Don't get me wrong the flycam is great, but it's use is limited because you can't touch the camera while shooting.

@buyxbox360dotnet a sexy laugh, what are you? a pedophile??

[buyxbox360dotnet]

@IIJubJubII

[F5SHOW]

Nice shot, looks like you got your flycam dialed in.

[havivelbaz]

i just got my flycam3000 and it's not that smooth like you and all of the other people shown..

i'm using 5d mark ii with grip and 17-40 lens

and the camera is always rotating to the side,

i culibrate it but the middle is free to movment .

do you habe any sugestions?

[WollwerthHDVideo]

@havivelbaz I hold the flycam with two fingers from my left hand gently on the rotation bearing

to prevent it from rotating when running.  But if it is laterally balanced right. The rotation will be minimal.

In other words, I hold it with two hands. Right hand on the handle, left hand on the bearing to prevent rotation.

[TVPfilms]

Nice demonstration, precious footage. Thanks for submitting.

[patrixiomadrid]

lindo baby

[JonahEpps]

Did you have the body-pod with it? How did you get the camera so low? Thanks!

[WollwerthHDVideo]

@JonahEpps no body-pad, I ran backwards while holding it low. No tricks.

[bendingsnake]

now rewind the footage that would look awsome

[nstung]

Very nice! I am considering to buy this steadicam and your video clip convinces me!!! Thanks

[filharmonic]

how did you get it balanced?  please help.

[Skandinaver92]

so nice

but the flycam is so expensive :(

[ProfetaParanoia]

I was looking for a flycam300 footage to see if the product was good, and ended up smiling with your video. your son made my day. hahaha.

[armada4x4]

wow, very smooth, thanks

[imrstr]

Weich lenses mm? f? is?

[HisPresenceMedia]

@imrstr 18mm f8 I think. Junky lens, cheap canon 18-55.

[aupairdiary]

@HisPresenceMedia I have the 7D too. Is that a good lense for filming video? I want something that doesn't need much focusing. Otherwise it's hard to follow a subject without going out of foucs. Thank you.

P.S. Adorable baby :)

[Cowinacan]

@aupairdiary

Any lens can 'not need much focusing', just make the aperture the highest number you can. And get a lens that is fairly wide, eg 15-30mm on cheaper video SLRs.

[ahgodson]

Nice!!
