Re: Question about the video camera on body strap?

The video clearly exhibits gimbal-stabilized video, (so good guess on the DJI products)

Tho if you scroll down on the description, they have links to GoPro Hero8, the gimbal that was used. - as well as a links to some of the other Go Pro gear that they use- which includes a hand grip and monopod. (no helmet gear - I would not use a helmet mount, Helmets are only really ideal for people who do sports. - and the last thing you want to haul on a trip is a hemet!).  Plus having the camera off-helmet allows you to take in and enjoy your travels from every angle while the camera remains shooting forward doing it's thing

They'r pretty lightweight, so it's possible to hand-hold small cameras, maybe not for an hour straight, but in brief walks.

That said, If I were you, for these kinds of videos, I would take a serious look at the Insta360 X3. Not only can it shoot walking videos, but at the same time, will take video of YOU in it! the only downside is that it might not be as high resolution as a GoPro, but it's still high definition and looks great - and gives you so many other great shooting options.

and if one day you get an VR system, you can view your videos in full 360, which is amazing.
