Steadicam Merlin & Canon 7D - Test (HD Video)
First time test with the Steadicam Merlin and Canon 7D with Canon 10-22 EF-S (mostly set on 10 or 14mm), B+W Circular Polarizer and Canon 83E lens hood.

@apapics Yep, that's more or less the choice I narrowed it down to! I
wanted something that was light and packed away as small as possible as
then I'm more likely to have it in my backpack/with me! So went with the
Merlin. I've heard pretty good reports/seen nice footage with Glidecam 2000
too. The CMR Blackbird looked a possible contender too - easier to fly I
think but has an awkward long pendulum bit with a T bar that is just going
to limit me. Ton of info on all this on DVinfo Forum.

@kh3naz Thanks! Well, as you've seen I'm still learning (!) but some of the
first shots (e.g. around 2 mins in and onwards) of me running alongside my
girl show how well even a "Steadicam Novice" can get smoothing of hand
shake. What I'm learning to try and control now is all the yaw (pendulum
swinging stuff). Busy editing corporate stuff (shot on my EX3) but hope to
post improved video clips in the next few weeks with 7D and Merlin when my
schedule frees up!

@youonchannel Shoot at about F8 area (which at 100 ISO and a shutter speed
of 1/50th - or 1/60th second depending on region you're in - will need
Neutral Density filter and/or a circular polarizer). This will give you a
HUGE depth of field, and the wider the lens setting the greater the DOF.
Most of the shots here were shot at 10 to 14mm. Also, make sure you set
your focus manually to e.g. 4-5 feet (AF switched off) and it'll be OK.
Have fun!

@nizarq99 I think you mean the Spar. This is the 'V' shaped metal bar with
it's adjustable hinge at the elbow. You can adjust (and then lock) the
angle at the elbow to raise or lower the distance between the Merlin Plate
(with the camera on it) and the weights at the bottom. Each camera/lens
combination will need a different setting to balance. In this case I found
about 12.5 inches (32cm) worked pretty well. Hope this helps.

yes, it is crucial to remove the strap as it would tangle with merlin, I
have received my merlin for the past 4 months, still my main problem is the
pendulum effect. just notice that i havent reduce the arm angle.. im using
7d + 11-16 2.8 Tokina. WIth 1 start weight + 1 finish weight for upper
spar, and 2 weight + 1 finish weight for lower spar. it is hard at first to
master the art of merlin...it takes a lot of training.

i finally received my merlin , its very difficult to set up , now that i
understand the thing a bit better , i still have swaying problems , there
are so many setup possibilities with this thing , i will watch the dvd
again and again , did you remove the strap ? all i did was tuck it under
the lens so it does not hang , but the thing sways way too much from all
directions , i need to figure out the perfect setup .

Dont have that camera or lens. Maybe someone who does can help you. Watch
the supplied Merlin DVD and make sure you have the starp taken off the
camera. Also, zoom out fully to 35mm and leave the lens there (if you
change the zoom at any time - obviously not during flying though - it will
change the balancing point). Takes a lot of practice but you have to have
the basics sorted first. Good luck.

@Patryk737 Its actually pretty small and folds up very cleverly. This is
one of the reasons why I bought it over a CMR Blackbird as the Steadicam
Merlin, when folded, will go in a rucksack with my 7D and a few lenses
(just!). If you want to do steadicam work out in remote places this is a
very big advantage. Some other demo videos on YouTube should give you a
good idea of its size.

@kh3naz Yep, I remove the strap on the 7D before attempting to fly.
Pendulum effect suggests too much weight at the bottom so consider reducing
the weight and/or moving the weight up nearer the camera (reducing the
angle at the elbow). I'm still learning the Steadicam but - with LOTS of
practice I'm starting to see improvements!

Simple! There is a huge depth of field with a wide angle (here it was set
at either 14mm or a very wide 10mm). With a 1/50th shutter speed and F
stops/ISO etc. then used to get correct exposure she was always in focus
even if the distance between us changed a bit as we did the running
alongside/behind shots.

@B2LPhoto Thanks! Music is 'African Hero', a royalty/copyright free
purchase from AKM Music, a UK company Just Google it and you'll find it.
They are one of the better companies providing royalty/copyright free music
for purchase for video production work and I use them a lot in my corporate
video work.

incredible footage .. i was thinking about buying a portable dolly or jib
for my 7D to get different type of shots , but this video made me want to
spend on a merlin. i need to do more investigation but i am pretty
impressed so far , how does it reduce the up and down motion and shakiness
of the arm ?

@kh3naz you MUST remove the strap. Sheesh, even a lens cap or memory card
can make the difference in balance. You should be able to have the camera
rest perfectly balanced with the handle supporting it on the endge of a
table. If it doesn't balance perfectly you need to mess with the settings.

@AndyKWilkinson is it true, sir, if you use other lenses which are Not wide
angle-then your footage [even on the steadicam merlin]-will come out
shaky?! Thing is...I LOVE shallow DOF. and if you use these wide angle
lenses=youll probably lose that DOF. so..what to do?

HI, nice video...it's actually what inspired me to get mine. Could I bother
you for the settings? There's a lot to take into account!!! What slot are
you using, and how many weights are you using? I have the same lens and
camera! Any help would be awesome! Thank you!

@es30381 Can't answer that for you - only you can. For me it was worth the
money but be prepared to spend a LOT of time practising with the Merlin to
get good results. I've read that Blackbird is cheaper and easier to fly if
the cost worries you.

@AndyKWilkinson I've done my research. It's the best you can buy under
$1000. All the other ones seem to be a pain to balance or don't work all
together. I wish there was a cheaper solution than spending $700...

@2005cbc Thanks! Music is often a key part of what I'm trying to do so glad
you feel it "worked". I'm much better at steadicam work now ( than what's
seen here) and I hope to post some new stuff as soon!

Nice work! I am just learning to use my Merlin. I can't seem to to get rid
of the back and forth rock. Is that a balancing issue or do I just get the
hang of it with time? Also what is this music?!!

@TheCutClub Z1 is a pretty heavy camera for the Merlin I imagine. Maybe
there are some Cookbook settings on the Tiffen website to help you? Merlin
should work well with the 5DMkII.

If you shot this video in manual focus, how were you able to get consistant
focus while running along side you little girl??? Thank You.

Very Nice Video! I am looking into a Stedicam Merlin or the Glidecam HD2000
for my 7D, I can't decide which to get. Any ideas?

You'll get the hang of it after lots of practice - and I mean lots. Music

I use a steady tracker, only $200 no weights and it works great for those
who are concerned about the cost.
