Mercalli V2 PRO (plugins and stand alone)
Product Overview
Mercalli - Rock-steady video stabilization, no matter how fast the action!
Now for Windows and Macintosh NLEs - Mercalli V2
3D video stabilization plus Rolling-Shutter-Compensation plus Zoom/Schwenk-Optimization in one complete package.
Rescue your videos!
Mercalli V2 employs revolutionary new 3D video stabilization, which independently stabilizes the X, Y, and Z camera axis, delivering better post-capture video stabilization results than any other product on the market - hands down. Mercalli also employs some unique Dynamic Camera Options that lets you precisely control the level of stabilization so the character of the video is retained.
Mercalli also incorporates highly effective rolling-shutter correction that is introduced by some cameras when they are panned quickly. Rolling-shutter compensation can remove the wobble, jello, and skew from your videos during stabilization.
Even if a scene was fully stabilized the Rolling-Shutter remains and makes it unuseable - therefore Mercalli can remove also this video failures fully automatically!

Also new are proDAD's SmartBorder options that reduces the need to zoom in during stabilization, leaving the borders of the original video intact.
