Steadycam Pro is an iPhone 4 app which does exactly what it says it does: works as a software steadycam to iron out the bumps and wobbles in handheld video.
Not only that, the app also corrects for the horrible rolling-shutter effect you get when shooting video on a camera without a real hardware shutter. If you ever looked at some footage you’d shot and saw everything turn to jelly as you panned the camera, you’ll be familiar with the rolling shutter. But enough talk. Check out the video to see how well it does:
The app uses everything in the iPhone 4 to do its stuff, which is why it will only work on the iPhone 4 and nothing else. Digital signal processing along with info from gyroscopes and accelerometers lets Steadycam Pro correct the video in real-time, as you shoot.
Skeptical? It doesn’t matter: the app is free to download, so go grab it and try it out. And try not to be too scared of the app’s icon, which looks a little too much like 2001’s HAL 9000 for my liking.
