Part 1: Use Stabilizers to Take Stable Video

how to take stable video with stabilizers

Using stabilizer can reduce obscureness and make the video clearer. The stabilizer moves towards the opposite direction of the accidental camera movement. It is suitable for the device without the anti-shaking function, such as DSLR camera, digital camera and smartphone. So, how to take a stable video with a suitable stabilizer?

How to Select Stabilizer

① Types of stabilizer

Non-motorized:

Non-motorized stabilizer is friendly to the new beginners. To make it stable, we add weights to adjust the stabilizer.

Motorized:

Unlike the non-motorized stabilizer, the motorized stabilizer should be adjusted though the electric motor. It is suitable to adjust the subtle details used in HD videos. But it is not easy to use. New beginners may not prefer to such kind of stabilizer.

② Shapes of stabilizer

Handheld:

After installing the camera on the handheld stabilizer, we can hold the handle to take videos. Most of the handheld stabilizers are not over 1kg. Therefore, it is portable, suitable for trips and the outdoor activities.

3-axis gimbal:

3-axis gimbal is used for the large shooting equipment. The gimbal is a pivoting mount that allows the camera to rotate around the axis. In addition, it is not portable or convenient. Usually, it is used in the normal shooting scenes, such as shooting films.

Vest stabilizer system:

A vest system is a stabilizer that combines a vest attachment, springs, iso-elastic arms, multi-axis gimbal, and weighted sled. To take stable videos, we should hold with shoulders and hands.

In fact, we can draw support from the stabilizers to solve the problem about how to take stable videos. But, how can we adjust the shoot video with some shaking details? Here are some available applications.
