This has been my biggest problem when using my Panasonic HC-X1500 camcorder. It is too heavy as most lightweight gimbals payload is not enough. Larger gimbals that would hold the weight cost a packet for the amount of times I would use it.so that is my dilemma. Holding by the handle accessory kinda works but not as good as I would like, so back to the drawing board.
Up to now the best have come up with is the Sirui SL-200 . This screws in underneath the camcorder and allows both hand to hold when extended. with the camcorder set to pan/tilt for steadying is what works best so far. Videos say walk like a ninja (heel and toe) but being that much older is very tiring so in reality not very practicable.
At least with the Sirui it will pack easily into my onboard flight cabin bag and not into aa aircraft hold with the camcorder..
