Best stabilzer for GH1 with external monitor?

[Blutarski]

I have been looking at stabilzers namely the Woodlan Ares and the Glidecam 4000. I would prefer the Woodlan but I don't see anywhere I can place a wireless monitor and bracket without it affecting the balance. The Glidecam 4000 is a bit bigger but placement of a monitor and bracket can be put on the lower half.
Has anyone had the experience of using both of these stabilizers? Is the Glidecam worth purchasing or can the Woodlan take the added weight of a monitor and bracket?

Look at FlyCam 6000, if you want to go cheap and have monitor with battery.

Ares is not an option.

I'll look at FlyCam thanks.

Huh? Does the GH1 have HDMI Out now or am I missing something? What's the point of putting an external monitor on a shoulder rig if there is no 'live monitoring" on the GH1? Unless you are just going to use it for playback...

Blutarski, that solution relies on HDMI input, which is only active on GH1 during playback.

So the claim of live view is false?

Live View just means that you can see the live video image on the screen or in the viefinder when in video mode while it is recording.

There is no way to output a live signal from the GH1 when in it is recording.

Has anyone tried replacing the on camera 3 inch LCD screen with a larger one? Can it be done?

It is pointles thing, as resolution is low.
Plus LCD panels are connected using LVDS interface and you can't just connect other model. This is not HDMI
