OM-D E-M1 for shooting video

I have had my EM-1 since May 2015 and used it on a photo safari through Southern Africa in April>May 2016. At the time I had not used the Video capabilities of the camera at all. In fact, I had an old JVC Camcorder with me and did not use that much either. However, since returning and having used both at an Air Show I have been looking into using it on the next photo safari to Botswana/Namibia and am looking to equip it with a gimbal, or similar, so that I can have it in an horizontal position and recording without having to have my sight "glued" the EVF or LCD and be able to keep my awareness of my surroundings when not in a vehicle. Almost stepping on a Puff Adder reminded me of that importance. I will welcome suggestions from forum readers as to suitable makes of gimbals, or similar. I use a variety of 4/3 and micro 4/3 lens and also the O.I. Share app.
