Perspective Aerials match MoVI performance at 1/3rd of price

I'd recommend a zoom which moves some small element internally, if you're using a stabiliser.

 

Most zooms really do push out not just the glass to the front, but the housing of the lens as well.

These devices are fantastic. I don't see why there are people turning up their noses on them.

I invested in the BeSteady on its Kickstarter campaign, which definitely looks like the best of the bunch. I don't care if more get released next year. Companies like BeSteady will be well ahead and provide innovative upgrade paths for more features along the way.

Shipped in September. Thank you.

Does anyone know if it's possible to use lenses on a rig like this that zoom and would affect the balance? Assuming you could wire a camera to remotely zoom, would it affect the rigs balance? Or can they actively compensate for payload changes?

Something like this I believe: http://youtu.be/7k8Z0C4spAE?t=1m30s

 

Don't these lenses still have elements moving inside even though you don't don't have anything moving outside the barrel? you only need 1 gram moving 1 milimeter to put a stabilizer out of balance.
