Also see the following, which is the same support discussed above but used with a GL2:

Dv Rig Pro here too.

It is NOT a shoulder mount, but uses the shoulder to support the rig which has an articulated joint allowing the camera to be adjusted to many more positions than just a "fixed" shoulder mount. The DV Rig Pro allows for "other" bits of kit to be bolted on. I have a 5" monitor bolted on one of the support handles.

I've videoed all day on a busy BUSY community event and I was so relaxed I could have done the evening too - if required.

Think beyond "just" a shoulder mount and there is this solution.

Here is a quick search I just did.

I don't know IF they still stock it - up to you, but I bet PECs of London will point you in the right direction.
