King Julien Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 Hey everyone, while i was looking around for a steadicam, I stumbled across this gear here. http://www.ebay.com/itm/MOVOFILMS-Yoko-camera-stabilizer-steadycam-support-rig-for-flycam-steady-tripod-/161807263731It's an extension that turn the steadicam into dual-handheld mode (not sure how much that help)I googled and looked throughout YouTube but I couldn't find a single review or comments on it. What do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiel Michael Eulberg Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 It looks like someone built a system without thinking it through first. I'd have to try it but I can't imagine this thing works well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Shawn Wang Posted April 16, 2016 Premium Members Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 so it prevents ur hand from controlling the post which means it embraces both short comings of electronic 1000 axis gimbals and the amazing steadicam (without the arm). so LOL.

Mariano Costa Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 ...sorry to be this suspicious but it seems like "King Julien" posted about his own stuff... ;-) Just guessing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Julien Posted April 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 (edited) Just to clarify, I'm not associated with the seller or product in the link I've posted :D I was looking to get a steadicam + arm brace for myself and then i saw this "Yoko stabilizer". Was curious on the difference of arm brace and that, but good thing I did not purchase it. I only tried a steadicam once and my wrist were shaking after a 15 minutes shoot. Hope this clears up the suspicion. Cheers! :D Edited April 18, 2016 by King Julien Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Victor Lazaro Posted April 18, 2016 Premium Members Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Hi King. There are no stupid questions as long as you made some research first (which you seemed to have) the biggest issue with stabilization (both Steadicam and Movi gimbal's) is lifting the thing. For that, nothing beats an arm and a vest, even with a small rig. Your muscles can work in finesse or strength, but not both at the same time. Get the lifting off your hands so you can work in finesse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
