Review on πŸŽ₯ Enhanced FLYCAM HD-3000 Handheld Video Camera Stabilizer: Quick Release Plate, Table Clamp, & 8 Lb Capacity by Jaleel Pruitt

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great, very easy to balance

I've read and seen all the horror stories about FlyCam balancing, mine was balanced in under 15 minutes of assembly. Use logic with it and balancing becomes a breeze. Now on to the product itself. This is my very first FlyCam or levitating device. I was pleasantly satisfied. The video quality is amazing. I strongly recommend a few test runs before using it in real life. I use a camcorder but I'm sure DSLRs will have the same issues, I highly recommend some sort of vest or hand/wrist brace. The thing has a certain weight and you won't be able to carry it for very long, I would give you about 15 minutes. Maximum. It's not so much upper body strength, most of the weight is on the wrists and forearms. Don't try to be macho, I bought a vest or body pod as they call it. Some of the videos I've made with this thing are so vivid. I use a tripod, nothing wrong with that, but the footage is so static. With this FlyCam, you can bring your videos to life with more panoramic shots, smoother action shots, and just more Hollywood-style shots.

Pros
  • Stabilizer Bars
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
