Trimm

I went to the edit profile page and there is no place to change my name... if I missed it, please post a link... thanks.

My name is the most important thing in this forum? Nobody wants to answer my question until I give you my first name? Here, my first name is Edmundo... how is that?

Trimm is my real name... I use a canon DSLR but I can't get quality smooth shots without software to clean it up. My arm always comes through the shots. My rig is like a glidecam but a different brand. Here is an example (with software to clean up most of the bounce.)

I'm new to camera stabilization and I want to know if a smaller camera is more difficult to get clean, non bouncing shots. I use a dslr mounted on a stabilizer and tried a vest and arm unit and my shots looked like I was in an earthquake. I've watched every stedicam video I could find on youtube and all the units I see have large camera's that weight much more than what I am using. And those shots are smooth as glass. I want to know if adding weight, or creating a rig that will create more "camera" would mimic the look. When I use hand held, which the unit (with a gimble) has, my video looks ok. I can still see bounce and my horizon doesn't stay flat. I don't want to invest thousands into a hobby, but I'm looking for a fix to get similar results to the larger rigs. Am I barking up a tree here?
