Don't you shoot some handheld work as well? When I was producing a lot of commercials, we'd occasionally go for a handheld, moving camera look. And I see sometimes see news clips that move through crowds or record other active events that appear to be shot handheld -- or shoulder held as it were. Just curious.

I have to shot some video of a blues singer for youtube, and I'm thinking I'll try to handhold it and move the camera a bit. Otherwise, I'm afraid it might feel too static. Now, if I had a dolly and some track that would be different:-).

Does modern commercial video equipment include image stabilization?

Do you mean 'professional' ?

If so, no.

Yeah, the Steadicam is an optional accessory. :)

Good point.

Actually you can buy lenses with IS in them, but to be honest, no self
respecting cameraman (or woman) would. No point - we use tripods.

And of course, they are not cheap......
