Are you looking to make home movies or try your talent at shooting on holidays outdoors and creating fantastic videos of good memories. Unlike professional movie makers, home users do not have the luxury of a professional camera that will provide a stable video. Therefore when you are having fun, many a times the video ends up being shaky and unstable that it cannot be viewed.. Not just that the quality will suffer it is also that watching this footage will give headaches.

This is where video stabilization feature in your video editing software becomes very important, it manages to make the image or video stable and usable for further modifications. There is one very mentionable software creators called Prodad Mercalli who have been providing their video stabilizing software in plugin form to several video creators and video editing software. Prodad Mercalli has several different versions available. Their stand alone version is called the SAL, this version is to be used to prep your unstable video for further modifications. So you use this version and then take the video an put it through video editing software for outcome in different formats.

This does not mean Peodad does not work well as a plugin with other software. In fact, it works really well and you will not need to put video through double software instead simply use in your regular video editor along with stabilization feature. There are several reasons your video could be shaky. Firstly, you have taken it while in motion, as in walking, sailing, running or driving. Secondly, your camera may not have an inbuilt motion stabilizer which works upto a certain extent. Thirdly, you may not have had a steady hold over the camera.
