Product Description
The VZ-1Shooter is designed specifically for the popular "prosumer" camcorders which are smaller than traditional shoulder-mount cameras, including the Sony VX-2000, DSR-200, TRV-900; and Canon's GL1 & GL2.The VZ-1Shooter insures a stable shooting platform by resting easily on your shoulder, keeping most of the weight of the camera off your arm. The VZ-1Shooter simply adjusts to fit your body. Bend it and forget it!Attach your camcorder to the shoulder brace camera platform using the camera's tripod mounting receiver with the included knurled screw. Position the camera platform (forward, back, up or down) so that the viewfinder or LCD monitor meets the eye comfortably.For a complete compatibility list please refer to the original manufacturer's web site.

 For serious video fans September 10, 2008

This shoulder support is quite bulky, but it is really a good thing to have when you record long events as religious ceremonies, parties or other kind of events. I agree it is a problem to transport it but when you use it you may forget this inconvenience. The shoulder pad is confortable and you can fit most cameras available. I have tried with a simple camcorder to a professional 3CCD camera. Just remember, the bigger the camera is, your arm will suffer the concequences. Depnding on hog long you pan to film, should consider to rest for about 10 minutes to get rest. However it allows you to get a very steady image. How many events were kind of spoiled because the image was not very still? So this is a good item that being not so expensive I would recommend to those who are semi-profesional or serious amamteur film makers
 I like it a lot June 9, 2008

This product was what I was looking for. I have a HV20 camcorder and a Letus35 FE 35mm adapter. When combined and installed on a rig the setup is quite large. So with a product like this, it is very easy to get steady shots and it makes it easier to pull focus.
