Glidecam HD 1000 Setup and Test

Glidecam HD 1000 Setup and Test Footage. The camera is a Sony HC-9 with a wide angle lens adapter and a stereo microphone. The camera that is ON me is also an HC-9 with a wide angle lens but using a Rode shotgun mic. The footage with the Glidecam is only OK (I know) but its about getting used to shooting and is till better than with nothing. More tests soon.

Dude, What's up with your hair? Looks like you got your Rogain mixed up with the Viagra! ;-) j/k. Great information, thx.

@Ninamashr OK that was only funny cause you added the j/k to it :)

Hey the video was meant to be informative not stylish :)

[Dommedagsprofet]

The sound signal is clipping, the lines in the video are jagged and that's a badly lit place for shooting. Otherwise informative video.

@Dommedagsprofet Thanks - yeah - I know its not ideal - these videos were me sorting of talking myself through the process

@TheSteadicamGuy Thanks. Without the no offense clarification I might have thought this was just a random snarky comment but now that I have read the rest of the feedback and advice I can see how true and helpful your comments are. The arm works much better now - thanks for contributing to the discussion.

Get a hair cut! Or at least a comb.

[arubaforever]

How come this doesn't show you "walking" ie the motion up and down with each step?

[Patryk737]

I just placed a order for this. Can't wait :D

[ApexIXMR]

Awesome video.

Next, you should review a comb.

@djurmaine I've noticed many of these glidecam/steadicam video are perfectly balanced when the youtuber is standing still but the moment they start walking, you start to see some wobble or up and down movement.

I have made my own diy steadicam I honestly, I have very minimal movement compared to this video. check out my 'jmz films wedding highlight reel 2011' and you'll see my diy steadicam in action. I use it in all my weddings. Btw, I use no arm rest and I'm using DSLR

I appreciate the vid dude! Thank you! I love your charisma, energy, and excitement to help inform others in this vid! It really makes a difference to watch a tutorial made by someone who actually wants to share their findings with eagerness. Thank you once again!

i like ur explanation of checking when u know it works, but ur shoots are pendling and ur movement forward needs a regular speed.but that issue i know its a matter of practice and overall u helped me really a lot.keep it up man
