I have a Canon T2i, and have been making movies with friends on another channel. We have a lot of walking scenes, and I really wanna smooth those down. Will this be worth it??

@SamWilber

It is an interesting item, but as toys

HAGUE MINI MOTION-CAM might be better

Would you say that the go pro 1080 is worth the extra money for the difference in video quality between the 960

[root66jp]

@PINKEYEDJOE If you buy one of the first "GoPro HD HERO 1080" is good. When you buy a second machine "GoPro960" is a good idea to consider.

I'm looking for something cheap for my HV20 and this is definitely an option. Compared to my 1998-ish pre-HD camera the HV20 seems to pick up every little move of the camera and unless it's on a tripod makes me want to throw up after watching the result for an hour.

How heavy is it?

@ThisIsMrNeil

The HV20 weighs 535g. I used to shoot the GoPro is 170g. HV20 is significantly heavier, the video will be shaken.

This is STEADY????? The guy's clomping and all I see is CLOMPING, up and down. There is NOTHING smooth about this footage. Maybe the guy should walk slower. Get real.

Hey, aren't the labels reversed? I mean, isn't that a hand holding a Modosteady with a GoPro on it visible in the lower part of the bottom frame box which is labelled "Head Strap Camera" ?
