Thanks for the info. I purchased my glidecam years ago and never really got to use it. I have a shoot tomorrow so I will be practicing today. I do think these glidecams give a more natural look over the motorized alternatives.
it sure creates a unique look!
thanks for the info! :) that hunchback of notre dame comment had me cracking up!
Thank you so much! Your tip of the little touches made a world of difference!
Happy to hear that!
Thank you very much for the useful video)) Everything is very clear and professional)
Thanks for watching
Very informative thank you! I just purchased a neewer stabiliser and the walking tips and the framing tips were extremely useful.
Your 100th like on this video!
Wuhuu 100th :D happy to hear it helps, thank you for watching!
I just got a flycam the cheaper one. Man this is tough it looks so easy. Thanks for this vid!
I also use Flycam sometimes and love it. Keep practicing, you got this :)
Great video. I LOVE the tip about making it front or back heavy! That's a rare one, I haven't heard other people say that.. will try it today whilst practicing.. thank you
Thank you Andy! You'll need a bit of practice, but it is a nice little hack yes :)
good video = good explanations - thanks
Thanks!
very good tutorial!!
Thanks!
I recently got a glide cam to get better shots, but I've been struggling with it so much. Whenever I'd do a shoot the footage would come out shakey, so hopefully, some of these tips will help me out. Thanks again.
Keep practising!
Brilliant video - very helpful and encouraging. The workout my arms are already getting as well is better than going to the gym!
Thanks for watching! Glidecam - best workout tool for that biceps haha
Tremendous video, very straightforward and informative. Thank you!!
Thanks for watching!
Good video bro!
Thanks!
Good tips, going to practice them right now. Thanks!
Thanks, enjoy ! :D
very informative! I just used flycam redking with 5dm4 and damn my hands are dead. That was my 1st time ever holding a steady cam and had 4hrs of shoot. Im not happy with the footage and realized I've made lot of mistakes after watching this video. Thanks for sharing the informating
Thanks, glad to hear you like it. Good luck on your filmmaking journey
Inspiring and encouraging - thank you!
Thanks!
Keep up the good work. I like to keep my hand by the bearings with the glide cam. Walking backwards... I have tripped over stuff many of times.
yeah walking backwards is tricky :D you got this
This was helpful
Glad to hear that!
Amazing video. Can't wait to see more!
thanks man!
Do you guys prefer to use a GLIDECAM or a GIMBAL?👇🏻
never tried with glidecam tbh.
I prefer glidecam any day of the week. Have used gimbals for a few years now, but going back to glidecam was soo good.
@@PatrikWestli Out of curiosity, what is the main reason you prefer glidecam?
@@tomstrojnik Personally I like the "natural" feel it gives the footage, also I like how easy it is switch between glidecam and handheld. The gimbal epidemic that is going on these days have made smooth shots so accessible, but I feel like a lot of people forget the fact that you can actually shoot without a gimbal and a lot of the shots look too robotic in my opinion. I still have my Ronin-M and I use it for some things that the glidecam simply wasn't made to do.
@@PatrikWestli agree with you! Both tools get you smooth shots but they create different looks and are best used in different situations... for example glidecam doesnt do well in windy conditions :)
So I like to use both but it depends from what kind of a look i am going after.
Very helpful thank you! I've had the HD-4000 for years but always reach for the Ronin because my glidecam footage wobbles like I'm drunk! Making new commitment to practicing thanks for tips!
Cheers bro
Zdravo! Tvoji posnetki so vredni le pohval. Res so zelo informativni, saj dajejo ogromno podatkov za začetnike. Samo tako naprej. Ali mi morda lahko iz izkušenj predlagaš kak budget steadicam?
Najlepsa hvala. Ja, Yelangu s60t je odlicna budget izbira
@@tomstrojnik Yelangu izgleda res solidna izbira. Bomo videli :-) Hvala za odgovor in lep pozdrav!
Great video, lot of great tips. I have a small Zoom camera that I use to record me playing my guitar etc. and have been practicing using a stabilizer. Looking to upgrade to an entry level Canon that shoots good video, looking to spend around $500.00, what would you suggest. Thanks
how long did it take you before you were good using the gimbal
Hello and thank you for this video! One question: should you disable VR (camera stabilization) with a glidecam? THANKS
@@mathias.grunenwald i leave it on :) but if you get weird jello effects from it, than turn it off of course
@@tomstrojnik Thank you very much Tom!
I really liked a free air of your projection. It was more interesting to watch your vid than others' ones. I bought a second hand glidecam HD2000, tried to adjust it with gh5s+sigma 18-35 setup..setup weight is abt. 1,7 kg spent almost a whole day. I just can not get a steady horizon if I spin it it starts wobbling a bit not spinning straight..if I circle it around myself (so that it faces same direction) it all nods a bit. When I walk it floats a bit, there is no straight skyline/horizon. Is that a feature? Or it is just a defect of a secondhand equipment and my twisted hands not able to adjust it properly. I watched a dozen of tutorials how to adjust the glidecam..all in vain so far or maybe I am too demanding.
Sorry for late reply, I missed your comment. Thanks for the feedback. From what you wrote it seems to me that you didn't balance it properly... and keeping the horizon straight is all about skill and practice
eletronic stablizer is getting way cheaper now, you can pick up a 2nd hand for cost of arm brace of glidecam lol
I use gimbal as well, but glidecam gives you a more dreamy look
Does it really pain that much? Sore muscles? I have Ankylosing Spondylitis, so I already have back issues (related to spine) just today I ordered this gimbal. Let me know if you have any suggestions for me. Thanks for the video!!
Keep your setup light and be careful!
Maybe use a vest for support
@@tomstrojnik okay will order that as well :)
Please how can I buy this cam
Which one
difficult to control
keep practicing :)
Isnt gimbal better?
I like to use both. They create a slightly different look so it really is a personal preference. What kind of a look are you going after and what type of shots do you need. So no, not better - different :)
if you like to do fitness use a glidecam...
true that! :)
Skills required to use a glidecam/steadicam. Minimal skills required to use an electronic gimbal
true that
