#WARP STABILIZER ALTERNATIVE FULL#
Snowboarding through the trees at full speed? We got that. Reelsteady excels at the kind of dynamic, traveling shots that bring other stabilizers to their knees. Orbiting around your subject with a drone? No problem. That means for the first time ever, you can accurately smooth footage from even extreme wide angle lenses like GoPro.

ReelSteady’s revolutionary new approach to stabilization allows for precise results from ANY camera and lens combination. You can see the demo below, and if that doesn’t make your jaw drop you may need a tetanus shot. ReelSteady quite literally looks capable of doing things with video clips that may have seemed near impossible before, taking what seem like clips from amateur night and turning them into something Hollywood-esque. And in true fashion of not knowing how much something is lacking until something much better comes along, we welcome ReelSteady for After Effects. Now again, Warp Stabilizer is great, but not without faults. Even then it’s not always perfect, and if you don’t have any sort of get-up like that, most people rely on software smarts to do the job – namely, Warp Stabilizer. It’s such a big deal that some of the contraptions created to stabilize video are worn like some sort of Terminator suit. If you do that, you’ll immediately run into the task of image stabilization. I’m not suggesting that you drop stills but having a working knowledge of video is in your best interest.

The appetite for video is huge, and there’s a need for quality content. Or how about all the attention Instagram and Facebook have given video? Consider that today there are more video minutes viewed on Facebook than on YouTube, and if that doesn’t strike you, it should. Not to mention the proliferation of GoPros and the like. For the most part, this isn’t for stills, but for video. If you’re reading this, and this isn’t your first time on the SLRL circuit, you’ll be aware of the comeuppance and popularity of drones.
