Nice to see new technologies coming up. Have a look at this really cool piece of software research by the University of Wisconsin-Madison. They refined 3D image stabilization techniques to nearly get dolly like camera movements out of handheld video. Of course there are several questions like what's about a heavy depth of field, very usual for production shot on film. Or what's about focus pulling.Beside that technical aspect I really liked the unperfect effekt the deshaker produced on the harbour shot in their video. It was on the left side in the ocean, like a subtile warp in the water. But it was based on the camera movement, so it doesn't looked digitally for me. Imagine this imperfection as stylistic device. A new vertigo, born in the 2000s?
