Lolling at the fact that you just ran up to a random girl and filmed her. Poor person being exposed onto the net without any consent whatsoever.

This is a personal opinion... the Glidecam (2000&4000) are great for cameras HVX and lighter (not sure about JVC HD110's), but once you add the swingarm setup its very difficult because the handle is at a right angle. The Steadicams (NOT MERLIN) are great because of the not so angled handle and would be better for much heavier cameras. Based on the video, glidecam got pwned, notice the oporator had to keep the glidecam higher to prevent the handle bumping into the plate holding the camera.

cameraception: a camera inside a camera inside a camera

the intro looks like some mating ritual between cameras

blah blah blah... there is ONE true Steadicam.... and it's the only one called Steadicam.... Glidecam... flycam... or whatever are all pieces of crap! professional operators use steadicam. there is a reason rigs like the Ultra2 cost upwards of 65,000.00$

its likes comparing Chevy to Ferrari and arguing that they're both equal because they are both cars... one is obviously better. TIFFEN STEADICAM

@coolmanak Rightio, well I stand corrected~

And I also just noticed that the girl turns around at the end to go back to the camera but no matter.

@MichaelDaeche The person was clearly an actor. Think about it for a second. How likely is it that a person comes by on rolerblades at the exact second that you start demonstraiting how smoothly it could follow somebody?

@viniciusb Aye, s'pose it means I gotta get into the habit of reading the description now, heh. And at least around here people aren't that acceptant of being in front of a camera. I've had a few people have a go at me for having my camera sitting on a tripod pointing in the direction they were headed. Ignorance on their behalf? I dunno.

@MichaelDaeche Ouch dude, you got pwned. Plus, who give a shit if that was the case anyway?

This is sex between cameras.
