It also helps a lot to have a Camera Stabilizer to get smooth shots on the move or to just stay steady. I've been using a Cam Caddie SCorpion with great success, it's affordable and effective.

Just stop suggesting the X-grip it's the same price as the Cam Caddie except it could not mount my camera because the battery would not fit on its small frame, forget trying to keep it stable adding a light or 2. It's just another knockoff riding the coat tails of a great product!

The opteka X-grip is for kids who don't know any better. The Cam Caddie is the same price on Amazon and it can hold anything, lights, mic, all cameras. I've read dozens of complaints about the X-grips wobbly nature and small frame excluding certain cameras and lights from mounting at all.
