HI,
After a little research I have narrowed my choices to these two:
came mini 2 (about 1090$) VS. pistol grip Beholder DS1 (about 700$)
came mini 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zQ55moXN5E
DS1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?list=PL4dz1fgDkET6jpEV19GvfncYVHCuJe2eJ&time_continue=32&v=3sCU4Jd2d2k

to be used with GH4 + 12-35
Your experienced opinions please: Have not decided which will make me happier...
needs: Promotional films, documentary, marketing films etc...
I think that with DS1 I will get more up and down tremors from walking, and maybe a little more load on one hand to carry for long period shots.
but, I love it's form factor...
anything from your experience?
thanks a lot.
 
I bought the new Al version of the Letus Helix Jr to make full use of the current $500 reduction offer. It is mainly for my Sony FS5 (which arrived today). Lovely, well designed and engineered bit of kit - the Sony doesn't seem too bad either!

Helix Jr seems to be an ideal gimbal for small, light cams.

The Helix is the best option available with the only downside being price. I have used my JR on a lot of projects during 2015. Paid for itself after two projects.

agree. I own the magnesium version of the jr and I can't stress enough with the people I work with on how brilliant that design is.
 
Aren't these significantly heavier then the original 2 suggested? Wouldn't the beholder be perfect for things like weddings when you only need some very short takes?
