Well, I broke down and bought one of these little Pico Dollys, mainly as something to play around with. I did a quick test tonight just at my computer desk with my 7d and a couple LED lights on the dolly. I was kind of surprised at what I could easily get out of this little thing. See what you guys think. (video is 26 seconds)

Here's a screen cap from the video:

The video link is below. It has been killed by Smugmug compression unfortunately. (I rendered out an .mp4, then Smugmug re-compressed again.) What's the best video format to upload here?

Anyway, thanks for looking,

    Thank you sir. It's capable of being really smooth, but harder than you may expect, especially when pulling focus too. I had a few jitters that the stabilizer in FCP helped with. I may try and add some sort of motor to it.
