Perfomance appraisal.
Imagine that you are surfing for more than hour in a shifting line up due to tide, you'll be happy to be well centered on your movie.
Move'nsee has a big advantage on the Soloshot system, because of his ability to rotate vertically, the Tilt that must be set manually before filming on the "classic" model. The "high class" has an automatic TILT, an alarm system, and automatic correction of tripod horizontality misalignments to save time and gain precision.
Nevertheless, if Soloshot is a less technical product, it can fit with more cameras than the Move'nsee device and it's less expensive.
In conlusion, two nice toys that will help you to improve your skills with better debriefing because of 100% sessions shot. You should visithttp://www.movensee.com/ and http://soloshot.com/ to find exactly what kind of level of technology you need. Various options are proposed byMove'nsee.
