Example footage of using the poorman's steadycam - walk through at a radio station. Top cam is Poor Man's Steadycam. Bottom is an observer using a tripod which isn't nearly as good and clacks when the legs hit each other.

The beginning of this really reminds me of the way The Office is filmed. Pretty good steadycam...especially for an inexpensive one.

Awesome.
I have been wanting to build a steady cam for a long time. I have tried a couple of things but haven't done it right yet.

the difference in ... ( 6 months ago by zice39)
the difference in steadiness has more to do with hand placement than anything else. the PMS operator had both hands at the balance point. the tripod cam had one hand high and one low completely neutralizing the inertial dampening effect of the tripod.

It's all physics. The center gravity of the camera is moved outside the camera.

The person using the folded tripod was not allowing it to swing freely under gravity, part of the reason her footage was less pleasing.
I made the poor-man's steadicam some months ago and the results weren't terribly impressive when applied to a small camcorder. Something with more inertia helps; either a larger camera or adding weights.
Still, the point is not the novelty of the design as much as the notion that something adequate can be made for about 10 dollars.
