Dear Glidecam,

"As a Documentarist I need to be unobtrusive as possible." I have always shot either with a shoulder stabilizer or on sticks. But with two Musically oriented Docs. in front of me I decided to purchase the Glidecam 2000 with The Bodypod. I'm mounting a Canon GL-1 on your stabilizer and have so far received superior results than anything I have ever mounted on my shoulder. I have been on-stage and in Recording Artist's faces with this rig and with the Bodypod I can last allot longer running around than without it. As with any rig you need to practice but once you have a few hours in on the 2000 Pro you will see for yourself the results which are a genuinely smooth action and flowing motion. The traditional on the shoulder Interview is now out the window with me as I can utilize this rig for just about any shot I can think up because of my new-found mobility. Speaking of I also mount a Citizen 3.5 inch LCD Monitor on the bottom base and I also mount a Varizoom Stealth on the post of the Bodypod for more Lens Control.

At this point I couldn't be happier!

Thanks Glidecam...
