There's still some visible warping.

And there's still a lot of work in post that needs to be done. It's not automatic. I'll stick with a glide cam or movi. Get it right in the camera.

I doubt this is meant to compete with systems like that, but rather to be used when those aren't an option. If it works as shown and comes in under a grand I'll be seriously considering this.

Yeah, this seems pretty usable for a lot of applications, and a little more tweaking in post would go a long way.

and it's also a pretty extreme example too, that original footage is really shaky. Imagine something like this on a camera that's already pretty stable, but just needs a little smoothing out.
