Glidecam Arm Brace
 

I have the 4000 with the Canon XL2. Most of my shots are relatively short in duration, and I was thinking of this in lieu of (for now) the $1500 Smooth Shooter. Has anyone used this, and your thoughts please.

Ditto here
 

Hi Bill,

Absolutely, I definitely agree. Life will be a "tough row to hoe" without an arm brace, especially for long shoots or a heavy camera. And for utility value, the arm brace is far more important than a body brace (which is great place to park the camera between shots). And righto, keep the swing arm on your Christmas list when you're feeling flush!
