1. Advice on using the virtual Stabi-Cam

Because every video has different characteristics, we recommend starting an initial video analysis

with the Universal Camera Stabi-Cam.

If the stabilization result is not optimal for the specific video in question, you can use one of

the other available Stabi-Cams (Glide Camera, Rock-Steady Camera or Alternative Camera).

These work according to different parameters. We recommend you try out these Stabi-Cams, one

after the other, in order to find the best possible stabilization. In certain cases, these Stabi-Cams

may produce better results than the Universal Camera Stabi-Cam. However, all these Stabi-

Cams are subject to very specific environmental conditions, which are highly complex in

combination.

If you want a video that comes as close as possible to a tripod shot, use the Rock-Steady

Camera Stabi-Cam (result closely resembling a tripod shot).

2. Enabling Rolling-Shutter Compensation

To correct distortion that may occur in moving footage (CMOS cameras only), enable Rolling-

Shutter Compensation. By default, the Rolling-Shutter Compensation option is disabled. But

it can be enabled for any selected Stabi-Cam at any time.

Once it is enabled, the CMOS-Sensor instrument will appear below the Mercalli Preview.
