i have a uber shake problem on my camcorder and I just want something simple... yes its just a handle but i assume it will help

You can make one of these for $10

1. 2 shelf bracks and screw them together with nuts and bolts.

2. Tape the bottom where your camera will sit.

3 Get a screw that fits your camera.

4. Get a grip for your handle i used a pipe insulation tube.

5. Paints the metal black so you look legit.

What I find help so you don't shake is just grip the camera really tight or use a tripod.

yea i did something like this and it works just fine

Dont buy that. use an old ski pole and bend it or something. its a waste of money

I mean, if you have shaky arms/hands, that handle won't do much. Holding a camera with two hands is more stable than holding it by a handle.

try using your tripod while doing it. it helps balence it out

I did this and it works great for me. It ended up costing me $20 and i wrapped the pipe in black electrical tape to make it look more legit.
