Stabilizing Video with Sony Vegas & the Mercalli V2 Plugin

Here's a short clip I stabilized with Sony Vegas & the Mercalli V2 Plugin. Here's some key settings.
1) I took this short clip with Max Zoom on my Canon HG21. Held the camera as steady as I could without bracing or tripod.
2) Video format is 30p / FXP (I think the 30p is important to getting a good result)
3) Sony project setting were set to "Progressive"
4) Mercalli Camera Settings = Rock-Steady / No Border.
5) I compensated for the "No Border" by capturing the first frame of the clip as a jpg still and masking it in the track above the video.
