I just set my DVX100 up on mine and am having a blast with it. It is a bad ass little steadycam type device. I am going to use it this week on a few things. I might run around some tonight with it. |

I have one, its pretty fun but a pain in the ass too setup, even just puting the camera on it can be a bitch and I am usually not in the position to spend any time fucking with little screws and crap. A decent monopod (or a tripod even) can work as a ghetto steadycam if I am in a pinch. Right now my glidecam is in the box it came in, on a shelf in my garage. |

SatanJR...I set mine up last night, balanced it and got some cool shots with it. Tonight I am going to head out to shoot some overhead subway stuff with it for this B-Roll on a project I am working on. |

I've got the 2000. With the camera on it the thing is just too damn heavy to use for more than a minute or two. |

I'll definately have to get the harness if I'm ever going to use it. I was afraid the harness would degrade the performance too much. What do you think? |
