This is my review of the Cowboy Video Stabilizer SKU:Stabilizer


If you are searching for a way to keep your GoPro steady then a steady Cam or Stabilizer is the way to go.
Only issue is the price.. A basic mount can run you a hundred dollars pretty quick. I love shooting off road video but the
toys can add up and Im pretty frugal so Ebay shopping I go. There are some popular brands out there Glide gear seems to be the big one on ebay.
$69-99

That is still a lot of money for such a basic idea.. I so I kept searching.. A few weeks later I found the Cowboy Studio Stabilizer for 35.00 including shipping!
It looks basically the same so, BUY IT NOW!

The quality is pretty nice, The only thing I can tell that is different is the weight.. This one has a solid weight and the other brand has
washers..

The steady cam will take your videos to the next level, It takes some learning on how to walk around with the cameras mounted.
Luckly I have a GoPro Silver that has the iPhone app that will allow you to get a view of what you are shooting. This made a big difference
in learning how to pan around. These mounts claim they can handle a SLR but Im not sure the balance would be right. The small POV cams
are perfect for them though.

If you search on youTube you will find many ways to make these mounts. You will end up with about the same price I paid for this one.
For the price I paid Im extremely happy with this.. I have shot over a hour with it and each time I learn more and more.

(Video soon)
