TIP: Stabilization tip for fixing camera jitter.

[Mommaerts]

Just thought i'd share this. i just finished a small edit where one of the shots was done handheld and really shakey. i just enabled MOTION BLUR and it smoothed out the movement quite a bit. I did this on a shot where the subject was pretty much immobile. It worked so much better than the "Image Stabalizer" for this instance. I don't think this method would work as well on a moving subject.

Just that i'd share that with you. If you ahve any better methods i'd love to hear them.

This looks to be an inexpensive way to correct for camera shake in post. It's an iMovie plug-in, and based upon the demo you can see online, it seems to work pretty well.

It goes without saying is that best way is to stabilize ahead of time (but I said it anyway).
