The Merricam (The $0 Steadicam) This video will show you my original technique for converting a tripod to a "steadicam", or MerriCam using only a screwdriver. All demo shots were done with no practice. I used the Sunpak Platinum Plus 7500 Pro tripod for this video, along with the Canon HV20. This technique is not meant for very large or heavy cameras, but is ideal for consumer-sized camcorders like the HV20.

DIY iPhone 4 Steadicam Here's a little instructional vid I did to show you how to make a steadicam for your iPhone (it also works great for small camcorders). Be sure to check out the demo vid over at . Edit: Not trying to take credit for inventing any part of this, lots of people have great posts on YouTube and elsewhere on how to make every part of this, and I highly recommend them. I can't credit them all, so use the search bar or Google. This is just my take on how to do it for an iPhone or small camcorder. It's just for fun. If anyone wants more details and instructions just let me know. Edit 2: Thanks for all the comments, I'm using your advice to tweak this thing and post one more video (and then I'm done with this thing, it's on to more useful tools). Right now this is more a stabilizer than a steadicam. A real steadicam needs to be completely balanced, which this rig is not. So stay tuned. Also as some have pointed out BE CAREFUL HEATING PVC PIPE! IF IT BURNS IT IS HIGHLY TOXIC (puts off Dioxin)! Don't let it catch fire, and perform in a well ventilated area, preferably with a mask. And the camera I used to film this How To was a Canon 5D Mark II with a 50mm 1.2L lens. No lighting, or post effects were used. Lastly if you want to purchase the phone holder I used, you can find it here, along with all the gear I used to film this How To: Thanks!

Zero-cost Steadicam! Build a crude and simple 'steadicam' with no equipment at all. You just need the concept: a camera with a counterweight. Then simply grasp it at the balance point. (No, it's not QUITE as good as an expensive professional version. Heh.) Also: turn the tripod's pan handle sideways and grab it for more horizontal stability.

Steadicam Flyer and JVC GY-HD111 Broadcast Live is an event held annually -at Earls Court in London - to showcase the latest equipment for corporate video and television production. I visited the show especially to try the Steadicam Flyer. It was my first attempt at using a stabilization system with an articulated arm and vest. I was very impressed with the build quality and smooth shots of the Flyer. I also liked the JVC GY-HD111, a camera with a professional look and compact size.

Steadicam Merlin Demonstration It was quite windy out, so it swayed quite a bit when I ran. But still, amazing piece of technology. Thanks to Mr. Garrett Brown for an awesome invention! Oh, just to make a correction by the way, the camera is a JVC GR-D290U... sorry, didn't look at the bottom.

DIY Steadicam Merlin Design Here's a closer look at my steadicam project. The metal universal joint used is a OFNA #15100. I haven't really practiced with it at all yet. My next upload will be my first outing with it.

DIY Steadicam Merlin Finally spent the time to make my very own Merlin. I need to modify a couple of things then it should be ready to get black anodized. 95% of the parts made on a manual mill, the rest on CNC mill and manual lathe. Handle is a 21 LED flashlight. The all-metal u-joint is from a 1/8 scale R/C truck. It will handle a 5 Lb. camera just like the real Merlin and weights less than a pound without weights. My first test of it will be at the up coming hot air balloon show.

Chicken Powered Steadicam - Pennywhistle Productions Click to share via Facebook!---- on.fb.me ----- I waited a couple of years for someone to make this video, so I finally decided to do it myself. I shot the video about three months ago and just now edited it down. The micro camera website mentioned above has lots of examples of what this camera is an how to operate it. You'd be pretty amazed how many uses there are for one. I hope you enjoy! If you enjoy my stuff, I would appreciate it if you subscribe! I've also posted another video which investigates the "Backdriven reflex" in more depth. It can be viewed here: Also, this video inspired another user, Jeremiahjw to create his own chicken powered steadicam. His video can be seen here: Pennywhistle Productions.
