Thanks for the link. some of these shoulder mounts are quite expensive.
I designed the 'shoulderlander' mainly because I wanted a set up similar to my
old XL1, a shoulder support AND the ability to connect to a tripod. My design
really only helps you steady your shots, use it as a third arm...and rest your
right arm

Great start, and unique. There are a lot of folks looking for a
solution. I have a few bookmarked but I don't have a lot of time this
morning ... here is a good place to start looking (one shoulder mount
in particular) and you may find other cool things too (I am not an
employee nor do I make any money from them...

Some of the stuff is a bit extreme, designed to accommodate a wide
variety of cameras and configurations (long lens, matte box,
additional batteries, audio, external LCD monitor, pistol grip, dual
pistol grips, cables, transmitter .... you get the idea a monster rig).
I'll check back and add if I see anything missed by others offering
suggestions
