steadicam merlin + 35 mm adapter

Very nice first attempt.
Try shortening the post all the way up, you'll find it will give you better control, and help to get rid of the swaying.
 
Yes shooting kids, animals, and other random particles is good practice, to a degree. It helps you get comfterble with the rig, and how to handle it. To respond quickly you must know how to use the gear instictivly.

That beeing said, once you know the gear, you have to move on to more structured practice. You need to practice precision and accuracy too, and that takes planned, repeated, shots.

I missed those responses guys.

Rather than asking dumb questions, I'll do some searching around here Mikko, as you've likely already answered plenty of questions on the structured practice recommendations.

At some point I'll need to start looking at an articulated arm/vest combo. I tried a body pod setup and it's worse than just going handheld
