| What is a Steadicam ? An Equipment for Video Production |
We all have recorded a video with
our DSLR sometime or another, and you would have found out that most of the footage
was rather shaky at some points rather being smooth.
To overcome the shakiness of the
video footage while shooting a moving shot, a music video etc. a Steadicam comes
in handy to use. A Steadicam is an equipment that cancel out the shake and movement
error created by the body of the camera person while shooting.
Steadicam is a brand name they are basically
known as camera stabilizers, which stabilizes the camera shake and movement.
There are many Steadicam available in
the market ranging in price from Rs 5000/- upto Rs 50,000/- , 60,000/- or even
more for a professional one.
For a basic videographer or for
basic video shooting you can always buy a Steadicam in the range of 5k to 6k
but if you need a Steadicam for a full-fledged video production house it’s
better to invest in a good amount in a repudiated steadicam.
The latest Steadicam that you can
buy in budget of 5k to 6k is the “FLYCAM 3000” which will cost you around
5300/- on amazon.in. This Steadicam can hold your 6D mark II , 80D, 700D in
canon or D5300, D750, etc. in Nikon. This Steadicam is only meant for DSLR’s
and not camcorders.
