Yasou, Peter! You never cease to amaze with your professionalism and ingenuity! I, as a professional videographer, will say that the idea is very good, but it is advisable to lubricate the rubbing parts of the rotating mechanism with a thick damping lubricant so that there will be much less jerking during movement!👍😊
Thanks Vadim! That's a good idea, I can use some paraffin wax. What do you think about adding something like a spring, or hydraulic strut, to have something to pull against, like an automotive shock absorber?
Good photography is almost everything in video. I like that you're thinking about optimising your vids Peter. Yes, the times I've nearly passed-out trying to watch a very wobbly video of something I'm interested in. :D
Thanks Eric, I've never believed that good enough is good enough. Agreed, it's like watching a movie of Sasquatch while he's chasing you in circles around the forest!
Highly diffused light is also very important, makes a hell of a difference.
It really does. There's a place for dramatic lighting to be sure, but not typically in technical videos.

You can use a spring, Peter! I would try a thick silicone damper grease with a viscosity of 6000 or higher!@@asbcustom
I'll give it a try, thanks!

Some of us are watching regardless of SB.
Thank you!
