Now as you are walking and lightly touching the gimbal joint grip to guide it
in the direction you want to aim the camera — ultra light fine practiced control
is warranted. Avoid the death grip on the guide; that will result in unwanted
lurching from side to side, up and down, and all other directions as well.
Reverse: This mode should only be used two handed. Hold the grip with your
dominant hand and rotate the camera around to generally aim in the opposite
direction of the forearm of your guide hand.
You will basically put the camera in forward mode and then rotate it until it is
pointing backwards without bumping the wrist of your guide hand. You can
use this method to film somebody else walking toward you or even yourself
while you are walking through a beautiful setting giving your narration or
demonstration. This method is great for when you need to shoot backwards
but want to see where you are going.
Please note that this mode can be dangerous if you are not wary of your
footing and other obstacles. Always scout your terrain and plan your shot
before you attempt it. It is better to keep the camera a bit lower and tilt your
head down to see the LCD monitor.
