Whether you are just starting out with Glidecam or are already an advanced user of long shots, this camera is a must have. It transfers the load from your gear (camera + accessories + Glidecam itself) to your shoulder and takes most of the stress off the smaller wrist muscles. However, as all of your muscle groups get stronger, this thing becomes less necessary for short shoots. However, you will definitely want to use it for longer shots or simply invest in a vest that Glidecam makes if you use Glidecam professionally.
