Luca... looks really good to me. It looked like you were stepping on the concrete blocks at the beginning. Good test that. I almost lost my lunch when you went upside down on my big screen, but I held it together. I have no experience with camera stabilizers but it looks like you've got yours working well.

Tried to do a bit of research on the Sanda100 but their website only has a short clip and does not show what it looks like or any other details.
Can you let us know more about it. Thanks Colin |

Never seen a counterbalanced gimbal handle before. It's a bit hard to wrap my head around--I guess it would help balance the offset weight of the rig on the wrist, but I don't think it would provide any more stabilization.

This short clip on youtube helps see the Sanda100 at work: http://youtube.com/watch?v=_eSE69vM6Kk&feature=related.
Seems pretty cool for a cheaper solution. |

I'm wondering if that counterweight arm that sticks out from the underarm has the Stooge 4x4 effect. :-\

Hi
Nice demo! By the way, do you remember the settings for the cam? I've never really found a setting for low light that I'm pleased with, but I think your short was pretty good in that respect. Regards, /Bo |

Found this website which has some photo's of the Sanda100 and a description (in Italian) but also has a video of it in operation, with a few short shots of the equipment itself (again with Italian dialogue).
Below is part of a reply from the company to the email I sent them: "Thanks to a system of adjustable counterbalance placed at the back-end of the arm, it is possible to ease the muscle strain through the handle. Presently the traditional stabilizing systems are off balanced at the front, causing a strain in the one's wrist and forearm muscles. The Sanda100 is a solely solution. It uses mainly the arm muscles (bicipital) releasing the strain off the wrist, therefore allowing a better steadiness, together with an improved operativness. In order to ease the Sanda100 carriage, it is possible to remove the portion of the arm placed immediately after the handle." Colin |
