Beautiful setup. What is the listing of the steadicam on Ebay? I am building one right now, have a monopod setup.

I find the Canon DLSR challenging in many ways. I don't have a toolshop to build things like you or money for things like expensive lenses, external monitor for focusing, and the setup time for a shot often leaves me missing the opportunity to catch something or with shaky & out of focus footage. There are all kinds of new developments just around the corner with mirror-less cameras. But been trying the Sony HX9v and wow! An autofocus that is professionally acceptable. Steady? VERY SMOOTH!$300

where is the test footage?

Funny video, though it's pretty shaky at times. I've been using the Cam caddie Scorpion with great results. It only put me back $38 and it's been highly effective capturing smooth shots.
