Contd..Also, there's no such thing as the Glidecam M2/MA or whatever you called it (I can't be bothered to read through all those pages). Gyro-stabilization has no place in a topstage. Tiffen and Betz make tilting stages for tilt shots. Tiffen, Pro GPI, and XCS (as well as MK-V in Europe) are the top industry rigs. A glidecam operator making twice what a professional op can? You make me laugh! Even the top glidecam can't handle the cameras that many operators work with every day.

I'll chime in, having worked as a 1st ac on my fair shair of commercials. NEVER will you see a commercial shot on something of the likes of the XHA1. N-E-V-E-R. SOMETIMES you will see something as inexpensive as a 5d body, but even those are always outfitted with cine lenses. If you think you can work on commercials with a Merlin, you're dreaming. About to run out of characters, see next post.

First of all, this commercial was shot in 1997. The XHA1, HVX200, or Sony XDCam weren't even available. You can CLEARLY see the FILM magazine loaded into the operators camera. So yes, he is wearing a full steadicam setup, plus a FILM camera which is 50 lbs. Besides, the commercial is illustrating a point, that the steadicam operator, Mark Emery Moore, is, in fact, a professional operator who wears 50 lb rigs at all times.
