Garret Brown's original Steadicam® is an icon that revolutionized filmmaking and it therefore (justifiably) commands a premium price. It is for this reason that homemade DIY Flying Camera Supports have been around since at least 1977, just one short year after Mr. Brown's invention in 1976. With this tradition in mind, I present the two fundamental principles behind the Steadicam and show you how to build your own Flying Camera Support.
