One of the things that adds real "dynamicness" (is that a real word?) to a shoot is smooth movement of the camera. In the situations of a documentary, this technique is great for making some cool B-Roll footage or even if you're shooting a tour in an artistic manner this would be a great way to show the space of the place. It seems great for shooting short commercials and of course if one is making a sort of a film or telling a narrative story, in moments of emotional engagement it would be great to use this technique to "dolly in" on someone's face slowly.

I don't have much experience with video, though, so my first impression was that the trick is good only for a limited set of circumstances. That is to say, the range over which you can move the camera is limited. At the same time, it's FREE, so I guess it would work for when you need it, right? That was a nifty trick.

Nice post, Thanks for shearing! Simply genius,
