I video record concerts. The vibration from the loud music travels through my tripod and makes the video quality shaky. Will these help?

Not really sure but it might though not sure if the pads will adhere to the bottom of tripod legs. I use them to isolate speaker systems weighing more than 100 pounds each and believe they work very well for that. I would look at the weight rating of the pads and pick ones that match the weight of what you are supporting on them. There is no question the sorbathane material absorbs vibrations, but not really sure how much it will help in this situation.

Remember these will not help much if the platform where the tripod sits is actually moving. For that you would need a gyro stabilizer

I've only used them for burning films, so I would know nothing about how effective they are with something purely audio as opposed to that which is audio/video. I do know that their fail rate is practically non-existent. Also: I once had a friend who owned a large collection of classical music that he had recorded onto videocassette, since the amount of data transferred onto video tape is significantly more than what could be transferred onto audio tape. So here's hoping this helps in answering your question.

Probably not. I recommend you check out a mono pod or tripod. There also is a gimble style stabilizer that may help you but I've never used one so if you try it let me know how it works. Hope I answered your question.

You can tighten them and it will stay standing but I wouldn't trust it to be a tripod. Maybe only if you use a light camera and no one will be around it. I use it to film weddings. The feet help with stability while I'm filming.

As has been mentioned, vibration and a lot of movement will cause distortion. Also extreme light or extreme darkness will cause a grainy picture. but keeping camera steady, not moving you head a lot, and average lighting should give you acceptable video.

They are a Quicktime video file, so no you don't, the settings on the camera however are what you need the software for. It will film just fine, just audio volume and beep on and off. Stuff like that is done with the software.

Not sure how that would help. It is not an issue of video quality. The problem is the zoom function stopped working. The zoom did work for two days, then quit working.

They would help with vibration-but sound I think not. Look for another dwelling is your best bet.

I have never had this issue when recording videos...have you tried wearing headphones while making your video?

Most video will not be improved by zooming, or for that matter, panning or tilting. Generally, it's better to let action occur within the frame or follow if it is moving across your field of vision. Another thing to watch out for is trying to handhold the camera, particularly if you are using a longer focal length (you are "zoomed in"). This camera has so little mass that it's weight cannot be used to mask camera shake and the image stabilization is not that sophisticated. Solve these problems by using a tripod or other form of support, for example, and you will be rewarded with some surprisingly good video.

Tough to say. It depends on the frames I suppose. They are very sensitive tho. Isn't mine off playing music too loudly

Using cameras on board mics, or having a mic mounted on the camera you will catch some vibration. I've been using this slider for a little over a year now, its very quiet if you maintain it well. It has been quiet enough to use on shoots where we've used dual system sound. Just don't have the mics attached to camera or you will definitely hear the vibration.

From my experience with any kind of Mic, trying to record clear sound at a concert is damn near impossible. I've occasionally used the Mic to record movies played in class that were louder than the lecture overall and it still came out Crystal clear. I'm not sure of the quality with concert music though. Definitely use that black puffy protector that the product comes in. It'll filter out some of the noise. Sorry that I'm not much help.

These should resist jumping and skipping during regular playback with no problems. But bear in mind, it depends on how badly your record is scratched. Sometimes there's just nothing you can do.

No. Here's a link to a video of probably the loudest event I've shot with it- so far. It may not seem that loud now, but I had to wear earplugs. What it will do is reveal weaknesses in the PA system and sound mix. In other words, if the sound is bad, it'll record it just like it is. If it's good, like in this video, it'll sound good later on playback. One of the main reasons I bought this camera was to record bands, and so far, so good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvLGa96YMLU

That is not too different from my application, so it should help. It will stop resonance and provide some sound absorption.

Probably too much weight for them but that would help keep them in place. I have them under my turntable to eat up vibration. They aren't slippery so may work for you.
