Nice grabs!

Love the test footage. Good investment!*

Thanks for the comment. I just love a smooth camera moves. (and I hate the shaky ones even when done on purpose like in "bourne supremacy")

If you have a good tripod Glidecam200 is not such a big expense.

You can buy it for about $400 at b&h. And you should Unfortunately I had to pay for it 568,97 euros + 22%VAT (that's $837 so about twice the regular US price) since I'm in the "Europe price zone"... And it was still worth it!

Great footage test. I'm from Boston Mass, but planing to visit the mother country (haven't been since 97), what do you think about LODZ Film school? PM sometime.

Great Job!

Everything was done in MagicBullet (it was a look based on "Currahee") + some extra sharpness. Here is a raw look:
