  • steadycam stabilizer for under $200?

    Posted by Jeff Otero on November 27, 2012 at 2:47 am

    hello everyone. i love my 800 and my crew has a lot of videographers. i also want to get into videos too. i wanted to kno if anyone here is doing videos wit a lower budget steadycam stabilizer for under $200. ive done some research and i found these four.

    lensse dslr pro $159
    hauge dslr motion $140
    opteka steady vid pro $180
    steadiGo $180

    i would really like some hand held stabilization and if i could get a lil bit of that glide effect that would b a gr8 bonus, i love that effect. can anyone reccomend any of these four or tell me wich one is the best for the money. thank for all ur help in advance………

    Run away of the Opteka… I bought one and it´s impossible to stabilize. Theres a space in the connection of the arc that makes impossible to test the drop time.
    When shaked, it looses the stabilization.
