The great thing is that VSDC offers a very simple and straight forward way to stabilize your footage. Even if you're shooting with a smartphone, it's likely that the camera in your phone won't have the kind of stabilization available in a GoPro. For this reason, it's important to have some ability to stabilize footage in post. The IBIS features in most other cameras are currently not quite as good as the GoPro. Unfortunately, this isn't the case with every camera. This particular stabilization feature is so good that it's made gimbals for the camera, pretty much redundant. Cameras like the GoPro HERO8 for example, have incredible stabilization built into them, called Hypersmooth.

Most cameras that are being released now have some form of sensor stabilization built into them. Of course, if you do decide to upgrade to the pro version, there are some notable benefits which I'll be covering in this article. The free version is actually quite a comprehensive editor in its own right and for many people, this may be enough. There are no sloppy watermarks embedded into the video or limitations on how you can export your videos either.

One of the great things about VSDC is that they offer a completely free version without any strings.
