By lifting your elbows in your chest and holding your arms parallel with your own body you can cause a "cocoon" which will make your arms more steady. Also for DSLRs this would work, although this system is dependent on wherever your display screen is comparative to your face. 3.

In most cases I discovered that moving my own body is far more steady than moving my attention. 9. Fix it in Article It is always preferable to shoot the footage right on-location rather than fixing it in place, but if you simply can't receive it correctly on-location you can find certainly a number of things that you can do to repair it in place.
