★★★★★ IMORDEN Carbon Fiber S-40c Handheld Camera Stabilizer for lightwei...

UPDATE: I originally tested this by putting my Canon 70D with my Sigma 17-50mm lens on it. My camera setup was way too heavy and even after a ton of adjustments (and even attempting to add more weight to counterbalance it), the camera was still too top-heavy. And I hadn't even put a shotgun mic on my camera. But after putting my GoPro on this stabilizer, I found this was (or at least "should be") its intended use; lightweight DSLR cameras or small cameras (e.g. GoPro). See my video review for sample, side-by-side footage. 

Hope this saves you some time buying and then having to return it after you found out your camera is too heavy.

✏️ Plus Bonus Top 5 Beau Thoughts: 

1⃣ Most important bit of advice in my humble bearded opinion: This will NOT work on a heavier DSLR, such as a Canon 60D, 70D, 7D, 5D, etc. These heavier bodies (or if you have a heavy lens) will make this stabilizer top heavy. If you have a Rebel camera (e.g. T4i, T5i, etc) or a GoPro, this glidecam will work perfectly. Note for GoPro use: You’ll need an attachment to fit your GoPro on here, such as this: [[ASIN:B00HRSBTNA Black Tripod Mount Adapter for Gopro Hero 3+/3/2/1 Three Pack]]
2⃣ Easy to setup—right out of the canvas bag, I had it going in less than 5 minutes. 
3⃣ Expandable, telescoping pole zips this into a fairly compact unit (and expands at the flick of a lever). 
4⃣ Extremely smooth gimbal. This I believe is the biggest selling point. You cannot replicate the quality of this gimbal in a DIY project by buying materials from Home Depot (believe me, I’ve tried). 
5⃣ An excellent bang for your buck. Surprised that this thing is listed for under $100. 

Hope this is helpful! Note the company sent me this product to demonstrate on video and offer my personal opinion. I don't work for them, nor am I paid anything that might sway my personal opinion of this product's performance.

📍 Bottom line: would I recommend this product to one of my friends? 
👍 Yes, absolutely, but only if you have a) a lightweight DSLR (e.g. T5i) or a GoPro. Overall, it's an excellent bang for your buck and honestly should cost a lot more for the quality you receive.
