I looked at that stuff... my cam with all the crap weighs in at about 20 lbs or more.... so the first one is a no go for sure... I'm gonna go with the assistants or grip setting the camera mounts for me. I can hold it like Billy says for a bit or with the little 2 lb cam but not the big one... I want totally locked off no moving shots
