Hello guys,
I'm looking for a mobile support allowing me to put my panoramic camera (with 5 lenses all around the camera) over my head and film while walking, which implies a stabilization system.
The camera can be used for long walks so that means the whole system needs to be quite "ergonomic".
You can see what the camera looks like on the following link: http://weblogs.vpro.nl/beingthere/files/2010/11/img_07941-300x200.jpg
The lower part can be attached to a tripod.
One solution could be something like this:

Do you think that this kind of rig has a good stability by using the whole body to stabilize ?
Anyway this seems to be homemade and I have no clue about creating someting like that...
Another solution, easier to make would be to use a backpack with a monopod very well attached inside and the camera overhead, which would lead to something like that:

The only problem is the stabilization...
Do you think about a miracle setup which could do the job ?
Thanks a lot for your advices, I really need them ! :))
