Re: Portability with a 3-axis gimbal

That's good to know Khoi - I just always felt they were somehow fragile, especially when turned off.
Its kind of annoying though, it's because they have been developed from the original drone...

Have we seen this extension for the handle?
And if the threads are the same, I imagine it can be doubled??
With the tilt lock mode, this would make a pretty good crane/jib shot!

Re: gopro 4 with 3 axis stabilisers
Ah right - Noa I though you had ordered the Gyropod MD1.
Well, I'd still be interested to see what the GoPro can do.
I'd much rather fly an RX100m3 which can give you a certain amount of DOF...

Re: gopro 4 with 3 axis stabilisers
Also, as a thought - the LX100 shooting 4k might be an option. If there is still some minor obvious bobbing or movement, the 4k would be handy for adding extra stabilisation in post!
Although you...

Re: gopro 4 with 3 axis stabilisers
Dave, I'm a little torn. The RX100 mk3 is £700. The a6000 is £550 with a 16mm f2.8 at £219 making it only marginally more expensive.

Yea Noa, l'd probably stick with my steadicam and A7s for dancing because of low light ability, but an A6000 on one of these would be great for carrying along on the photo shoot!
