Shoulder mount for the HVX200, worth it or not?

[torrone]

Hi
Im planning to buy a shoulder mount for my hvx200, a redrock micro and it all goes for about 600$.
Is it worth the money buying a shoulder mount? Never used one before, but I know it doesn't stabilize the camera perfectly, as a glidecam would. But i'll be using it with a 35mm adapter.

thx

You can go really expensive with rail extensions and shoulder pads, but I have a Varizoom VZ1... Works great and costs $100

Simple. Cheap. Gets the job done. I use it all the time for my HVX200 and AF100

I got an RigX_from_Express35 for my HPX170 and i love it.

I just upgraded it with the HD XL handle set for more stability and control.

But you should prefer the Offset Shoulder_Rig_HD
