Glidecam vs vz-ultralite
Hi guys,
I've been browsing the forums looking for the answer to this but I could not find anything conclusive. I bumped into the opportunity to buy a used glidecam 2000 for 150€ (shipping to Barcelona included) or a vz-ultralite for 220€ (shipping to Barcelona included). Did anyone work with any of these? I know that the VZ can support more weight and it has a quick-release plate. But apart from these differences I really don't know what differs these 2 tools and how good each of them is from a user point of view. I know "steadi-pros" say these are not the best tools for the job but even though I don't do weddings I've seen some guy's wedding footage entirely shot with the glidecam that looked very smooth. Any thoughts?
cheers,
Rafa
