Who else still uses a glidecam???? Oh and sorry for the crap focus on some of the talking shots 😥

While I absolutely love the footage I achieve with my Ronin-M, I use my HD-2000 for select projects, as every tool has its purpose! When we are in harsh weather or have to hike/bike miles out, it's the glidecam all day. I also bring my glidecam to every shoot that I use my Ronin-M just as a backup, since it'll always work. Great video as always Matti!

I started with a glidecam but moved to a gimbal once they became more affordable ("affordable" on a professional level LOL). BUT you just made me miss my glidecam with this video, though my cheap cametv single is pretty epic for a little gimbal (but def couldn't handle the weight of a 1DX)

TravelFeels Also have a old mighty Glidecam HD-2000 aswell as a Ronin-M. It’s great how fast you can start shooting with a glidecam. Those extra few seconds for a Ronin for turning on is not equally nice as a glidecam thats always availible. Pros and cons with both, but I’am very glad that i kept my HD-2000, which is so easy to stabilize as you get use to it.

A Steadicam is the brand of Gimbal, much like how Glidecam is also a brand of gimbal. What you’re referring to is the preference of a mechanically manual gimbal stabilizer, over a mechanically motorized gimbal stabilizer. In short, a Steadicam IS a gimbal. This is the kind of misinformation that is plaguing the KZread filmmaking community.

thomaskazuya we still call the old school manual gimbals "Steadicam" because that was the first brand to introduce them. By default, pretty much every camera operator refers to the portable electronic 3 axis gimbals with follow focus, as a gimbal...in short.

Gimball is just useless for weddings for example. _ Gimball takes more size _ It'll always be less reliable than a glidecam since there is electronics in it (even if it's high quality gimball) and batteries _ it is heavier _ it's much more expensive _ it's more for short movies, sport movies, outside creative movies in general. During weddings, a large part of the shots are shorts and on monopod. You don't have to run and move all around all the time, just remember it's not an action movie, it's a wedding. Creativity is more important than movement. (sorry for my english, I'm french)

And the skills I've learnt from using the Glidecam has made my gimbal work even better. Thanks for the upload!

Awesome video, Matti! Just got my first Glidecam because of you.
Great video once again!!Strarted to use a steadycam because of your suggestions!
you don\t need a gimbal or steady cam really, most of your clips/videos are slow mo, i don't really see any point or benefit of any stabilizers if you tend to shoot high frame rate and use 1-3 sec of footage per clip in your edits lol. i seen better edits that make proper use of stabilizers, gimbal or steady cams. After all they both will work, 200usd for pipes and metal weights id still get a gimbal, you don't really need a stabilizer hand held will do since you only take 1-2 secs of high frame rate clip footage. I though i heard natural, slo mo is not natural, i have not seen a normal frame rate with placing your camera on a tripod, show us some real gimbal wrok no slo mo pls auto focus is so bad for a 6k camera though. i like the hotel and still like your videos just my 2 cents
Dude, I love both you guys but your footage of the ice hotel was dope af.
I bought a steady Cam today and this video is juts too helpful. It even made me to subscribe at last.
Great explanations on differences between Gimbal & Glidecam. Really helps a lot!!
Hurrah FINALLY got my new glidecam stabilised after following your instructions. Every other video I found didn't do the set it down then lift it up part which was essential in testing it is stabilsed
Thanks sharing what you know Matt! I'm a new film maker and I am just absorbing everything you're teaching!
