Camera Stabilizers Epic, All Kinds of Ways to Steady Your Camera
Camera Stabilizers Epic, All Kinds of Ways to Steady Your Camera
IBIS camera stabilization can only do so much without warping the background. The best stabilization is when the camera is physically held in 3D space mechanically. Get it right the first time so you don’t spend hours trying to fix something with software on your computer. Here are the items featured in the video.

Man I just got to your channel I doubt youβll see this but Iβm getting into film making and your my inspiration to go ahead and just do it
Would you like to tell me which stablizers are probably suitable for Camcorders such as Panasonic X2?
@ 22:25 I think the word you want is "glide."
Thank you so much Markus!
Nice video. I use little camcorders. Sony Cx405 and such. And I use the canon t3I. That is all I have. For now a tripod works for me. Some times I just do hand held shots when I can, keeping the camera as steady as possible. But I know what to get now if I need it. Thanks, Markus.
man, your videos are so helpful
In a pinch, a camera fixed to a 2X4 eight feet long will smooth out the shakes.
Is this guy a descendant of Stan Kann?
Just my look….just found your channel….2 years too late for the give away..
I think Kasey from Camera Conspiracies would REALLY enjoy receiving Ronin SC by DJI Pro for a logging, as he would absolutely enjoy the extra weight during his outdoor of logs, as well as the exercise benefit SCDs necessary to hold up is motionless his camera on long ranting walks! I can only imagine the resulting 15-20 minute video complaining of the pain required to carry this with him on his nature hikes!
So many great insights in this video, I felt like unlike so I could like the video again and again π Really appreciate you sharing your knowledge, and I love your enthusiasm.
best physics channel ever, weights are a mistery haha. jokes aside, great content
markuz bela eplicação sobre estabilização nas cameras..
Amazing video. Love how you explain everything. Simple. Concise. Not selling me anything but knowledge. thank you for taking the time to make these videos.
Back in 1960, or thereabouts, I taught a class in photography on the side to soldiers in Korea. Given that there were great bargains available on Japanese cameras, it seemed everyone had put their money down but weren’t geeting expected results. I made everyone buy a Diana. It was a plastic camera with a plastic lens. I told them that everyone of them had purchased a camera that was smarter than they were. I wanted the to begin with the basics and all use the same camera. That first class I had told them to take a few pictures around the base in with their Dianas and return in one hour and we would devlop them when they returned. I selected some that illustrated a point. I asked them what the most important piece of their equipment was. All replied either camera or lens or film. Wrong. I taught them that it was a tripod. That little Diana with a tripod could possibly get better results than their Canon or Nikon with the most expensive lens if the camera moved. If they didn’t happen to have a tripod handy, lean against a wall, a telephone pole, anything. Also, I mentioned that, absent a tripod, pull their elbows in to their body, unless they needed their arms for flying.
THX:)!
Great video!
super nice of you to share what you know.
Whenever I’m having an annoying day or just don’t feel right, I watch videos on your channel and that just magically makes things get better.
So much better than chemicals! π
Thanks for being so camera smart and having an awesome personality to go along with it!
I had a Ronin Gimbal and it started moving sporadically every time I turned it on, and it was brand new.
Perfect description
I have watched countless videos about camera stablizing, but this is the first ime I have ever tuely understood it. Thank you so much. Aaaaaaaaand… there. I officially subscribed to you.ππ
Hello Markus . I get slowly better at things . I admire your generosity . I have been able to afford a Ronin rs3 and hope to improve my skills little by little . So much things to learn . This is a very addicting hobby . Have a nice weekend . βοΈβοΈ
Feels like a carrot top sketch
for the flycam, how do you manual focus? Do you need a wireless follow focus, used in your offhand or something? And do you end up needing a monitor to see what it’s shooting? And when you twist it to aim left or right, do you jolt the camera?
This was soooooooo helpful!!!! Thank you!!!!
Just found this channel – fantastic content. Clear, practical and fun. Thanks !!!
This is brilliant. Thanks!!
What a clever and generous man
Wish the give aways were applicable for Africans. Just started videographer, need a gimble
Perfect lesson, impressive pedagogic structure
I always enjoy your comparison videos. You can compare the very best tech with cheap or outdated tech without being overly judgmental or snobby, because sometimes "it is what is is" and the cheap stuff is useful to some people.
I never got the gimbal thing – yes it makes movements smoother but shake is still going to translate through as he shows at 15:20 – as I understand it IBIS deals with shake better
Thanks for a very informing and honest video. You’re right. It still takes a lot of practice to make it look smooth. Marc T.
Inertial mass is the key for all of the passive systems. The further away from frame center the mass is, the more inertia they have for a specific weight. Back in the 90s, I built a triple weight flybar mount for my Hi-8 camera. And while the IS on the Sony camera was revolutionary and worked fantastic on it’s own, the flybar weights completely changed the game for less than $30 (could have gotten it done for under $5, but I made it nicer than that). I bought a DJI gimble for my phone a few years ago, and the only thing it really does better than the flybars is lateral roll stabilization, but adjusting the weights and locations on the flybars would alter that as well. One doesn’t need the $$$ gear if they have good technique and a little bit of ingenuity.
Why not install a miniature gyroscope?
Wow thank you for all the amazing info
I love this video. Accurate knowledge! Thanks marcus
Use a monopod, the poor manβs stabilizer. Works very well.
New video episode idea:
Is there any good system to turn a mirrorless/dSLR into a PTZ controled from OBS software on PC (cheaper than 1" PTZ)?
For scenes, tracking, option for powered zooms (eg. Sony).
Bro thanks!!!!ππ»ππ»ππ»ππ» booommππ₯π€π»π₯π₯π₯π₯βπΌ
Great explanation πππππππ»
Love youre videos, your the best YouTube teacher
Great hair
Such a great video, thanks for the explanations on each models. Dude you remind me of Garth in Wayne’s world btw π
Such a great video, only just found your channel from a camcorder comparison you did and now I’m bingewatching xx
Very informative. Thanks.
Hi Markus, I slightly disagree with your point of how IBIS or Lens IS cannot naturally stabilize in 3D space.
Sure, the range of motion is smaller with these in camera stabilization methods when compared to a gimbal or a steadycam, but they effectively do the same thing.
And about warping with wide angle lenses, yes, that is a real issue with IBIS, as the rotatory compensations which involve the sensor coming out of its plane, make the image warp. So if you’re shooting wider than 24mm, adding a 3 axis gimbal would be very useful.
And also, those 3 axis gimbals cannot compensate for the translatory jerks on their own and you are reliant on the inertia of the system to keep it steady.
The Steadycam arm does take out a lot of the up and down movement caused by walking or running.
Another great video!
I need to see how this thing the SC can track using your iPhone. I got a find that video.
