Hi to all.........

I have the Varizoom GT Stabilizer, but haven't get my hands on it yet, and I need some help here please.
I'm planning to use this product with 2 different cameras JVC-HD100 and the new Sony XD-Cam PDW-F350.

1- Is any workshops in NYC about this product??

2- can I go an extra pound (support up to 16 pounds) but Sony XD-Cam PDW-F350 weight about 17 pounds with everything attached.

3- Can you provide any tips on how to use it.

Answers will be appreciated.

Thanks.

Since the skill of operating is manufacturer-agnostic with stabilizers, I would point you towards Peter Abraham's 2-day Flyer workshops, viewable at the steadicam.com site. Worth the money. You'll learn a lot.

Just checked for you--looks like you are in luck, there's one in NYC in March:
