I don’t know about most people, but my hands are never steady enough for shooting videos. I’ve seen many of my videos spoiled because of my inability to hold the DSLR stable, even with OIS (optical image stabilisation) built into the lenses.

The problem, of course, is that the design of the DSLR is not really made for shooting videos – unlike purpose-built camcorders, the DSLR is made to be held up to the eye and not at arm’s length.
