Leigh:

Just to clarify, you don't need to go light with your gimbal handle (non-post) hand--that can be a firm grip. Definitely light with the post hand is the way to go, though!

Shirtless--eeew--you don't want to go there, gents.

I seem to be cursed as far as good candid set shots go--I never seem to get captured in the "sexy" cinematographer poses.

Well put James.

As far as budget, I think that once your pipeline is set up with the P2 system, your per-minute cost for storage is far below that of film.

Quality-wise, film is film and...

I like the Smooth Shooter as an arm, nice piece of gear for the money. However I think I might give the Flowcam the nod for the sled design.

The idea is that you are dampening the springiness of the rig's arm by absorbing some of the bounce with your own arm.

You only need to detune a little, so that the arm hangs perhaps...
