Some combinations are pre-calibrated, but if you aren’t lucky to have it done already you have to do it yourself.
USING WARP STABILIZER SOFTWARE
Plus, you will need to calibrate your camera/lens combination before even heading out to shoot.Ĭalibration is time-consuming as it requires shooting a lot of test footage of a chart and then using SteadXP’s software to analyze it. It does have a weird way to start up that requires you to do a weird sudden jerking motion upwards with your camera when you start. The data recorded is gyroscopic data of how the camera moved during shooting. The SteadXP will send a signal that can be deciphered in post that will sync up your footage with this audio track with the data recorded by the SteadXP. Then, you connect the audio output to your camera’s audio input. So thats the Warp Stabilizer, and I think Ive tossed out the hints that make it easier to use. First, you just need to mount it to your camera, probably in some sort of shoe either direct to the camera or on a cage – just make sure it moves in the exact same way as the camera itself as you shoot. It actually works in a fairly easy-to-understand way. If you are curious to learn what this device is and how it might be able to transform your stabilization workflow then filmmaker Tyler Stalman has put together a comprehensive video on the SteadXP. No amount of warps stabs will counter a bubble/interdiction sphere. add more stabs to counter more disruptors/scramblers.

2 x warp stabs will counter 1 x warp scrambler or 2 x warp disruptors.

1 x warp stab will counter 1 x warp disruptor. That’s a much smaller and easier setup for everyday shooting than using a gimbal. I understand how anti-jamming stuff works, but warp stabilizers are a little more vague to me. It is a tiny device that can be easily mounted to your camera and when attached it’ll record data from it’s gyroscope for use later on. A gimbal just a little too bulky for your setup? There is a new tool on the way called the SteadXP that can help dramatically improve stabilization in post.
