HI all, just thought I'd ask the collective the above question.
With the ever increasing claims by manufacturers on IBIS effectiveness and the amount of "stops" of vibration support they offer, (i.e. 7.5 or 8 stops), to be honest, I've never really seen much difference between say a camera with 5.5 stops and one advertised as say 8 stops (especially on FF cameras). As ninja as I try to be, I've never been great at walking videos without injecting a serious amount camera shake into the footage no matter how steady I try to be.
I know that gimbal's are the real answer however to be honest, I can't be doing with the faff and hassle of carrying one around, so my question is what techniques do people employ please to get as stable footage as possible when shooting walking video's without a gimbal ? By the way, I'm referring to shooting with "normal" focal length lenses not telephoto lenses.
