GoPro Stabilization Comparison | HYPERSMOOTH vs GIMBAL vs REELSTEADY

There are three ways to stabilize GoPro video footage. The first is Hypersmooth on the GoPro action camera. The second is using a gimbal. The third is using ReelSteady, now known as Hypersmooth Pro.

In this video I explain the pros and cons of each method and I also provide lots of sample clips both individually and side-by-side so that you can see which methods of stabilization provide the best results.
