That was exactly what was going through my mind as well. I just make short films as a hobby, and I've been so excited over the years to watch these huge quality/price inversions for high quality video. There's still a ways to go, but the movement has been amazing; it's been thrilling. And now this?! There are so many shots I have in my head that I could pull off with this. The idea that I -- I alone! -- could essentially afford my own dolly/crane system blows my mind. I feel like I have just seen the future. As for the software you mentioned: it's clear, the stability has to get better (but there was clearly a lot of wind on that beach, as you would expect, so maybe it would be better in different conditions). But for the trajectories, you could also contract someone that worked remotely, to whom you could draw out the trajectory you want or model in another way, and be your camera operator. (Wouldn't that be mind-blowing? "The camera operator on this film never left their home in Madagascar.") Really -- I've just seen the future, and as a (hobbyist) film maker, I'm ecstatic at the potential!
