  Low budget DSLR stabilizer

  Posted by Alberto Bedin on November 10, 2012 at 3:23 pm

  I would like to buy a DSLR stabilizer for my Nikon D7000.

  I found this thread:

  And I found these products:

  https://www.wondlan.com/product/-elfin–mini-stabilizer/
  https://fotoup.net/000News/3593/180511-jaybilizer-steadicam-per-reflex-digitali

  My budget is: 50-150€ so my question is: do you think that these products are good enough for a decent result? Do you know any good stabilizer for the same price?

  I would like that it supports a minimum weight of 1.5 Kg

  Thank you

  A tripod is your best stabilizer with a good head.

  If you want moving shots try a Glidecam. https://www.glidecam.com

  Otherwise, most shoulder mounted supporting systems will work well.
  Here is one for $100 from Digital Juice.

  Just to give you more options, that $100 Digital Juice shoulder mount is the exact one (different logo) which regularly goes for 25 to 30 dollars on *bay. Cowboy Studio sells one, and several other sellers – you can get them off-shore, or in the US, for just about the same short money. I own one, and it’s plastic, but strong plastic.
