  1. Folks in the RC world have been designing and building these rigs long before the movi. From 2010 - http://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=ewK7NkcCFCk&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DewK7NkcCFCk%26feature%3Dplayer_embedded The portocam is using the same technology : http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=W0DM7e97Mwo&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DW0DM7e97Mwo DJI produced the Zenmuse for the GH2 almost 2 years now and guys have been converting those for handheld use before movi. Photographers and video guys think all of this is new revolutionary tech. Everyone is late to the party. I can guarantee if the movi guys didn't hire LaForet for its debut, movi would have been another missed opportunity for the video guys and it would have mostly remained known to the RC folks.
  2. Again, payload only for DSLRs. Kind of limiting. What about the weight of wireless follow focus, HD transmitter and the weight of the batteries needed to power all of that. Besteady is good for hobbyist but not pro use.
  3. Wow looks like Varizoom's offering is more money at $6000 but can only carry DSLRs. Rock-steadi is $4500 and like movi can fly the Epic with accessories.
  4. It's because the guy demonstrating rock steady was sliding the camera from side to side while also making rotational moves, he did not keep his movements tight. Whereas the movi guy did the same demo without sliding the camera from side to side, he kept his rotational movements in a tight circle without sliding side to side. The key is to watch the actual camera base and body...both rock steady and movi stay perfectly level.
