Which Stabilizer is going to work best for me??

Hello all
I apologize that this question has been asked before, but my head is full of questions and I need a stabilizer quickly!

I live in the UK and my upper limit is about £450 but the cheaper the better (naturally), as there are plenty of other things to spend cash on (not least the production itself), and I don't want to cough up anymore than necessary to get decent results. If I save myself £100 I can make myself a glidetrack, for example. I'm shooting short, narrative projects.

My options are:
Glidecam HD2000 (£430)
Glildecam PRO2000 (£320)
Hague Camcorder Stabilizer (£220)S
Hague Maxi-Motion Cam Stabilizer (£170)

Can somebody point out the differences here and tell me which (on balance!) would be the best choice for a Canon 7D user on a budget?

Thanks in advance
Dom

Your e-bay 'clone' is a used GC200Pro by the look of it !

ID get the GCHD2000 of course

WHile the others may work the HD has I think a better quality of adjutment on the topstage meaning it is easier to balance

which will save you hours when you try and set it up!
