well, the merlin is light and is easy to travell with ! This is a good reason !

To say the truth... i have bought it because i thought there was only one steadicam ;)

Love your Cinematography!

@0niCe750

Thank you :))

WOW!! This is probably the only video on youtube with actual "steady" footage with the Merlin! Thanks for sharing! I am trying to use 5DMKII with "17 to 40mm F4 L", well under 5 lbs still can't get a decent 100% steady footage. Always does the pendulum either back and forth or sideways. Did you use a quick release plate on the dovetail plate? If so can you please tell me which one? Really appreciate your time.

Hello !

I use only the dovetail plate. Nothing else..

Pherhaps ypur setting are not good...

[UnigirlCanada]

What lens did you use for this video?



[lolotixhon2]

mostly with 24 105 ;)

Wait, that was two questions... I lied.

Unfortunately I bought a cheeper version. Now Im headed for a Merlin. One question.

Are you using any type of monitor? Seems like once you begin to shoot its just a guess on the small monitor on the 5D2.  And Focus. Do you just hyper focus?

Love this video. I have bought the Merlin to use with the 5D and the 24-105 lens. Could you tell me what settings you have for the Merlin? Great work.
