Handheld cameras are often "handheld" in name only. While smaller than their shoulder mounted cousins, today's handheld cameras often pack so many controls and so little grip area that the very camera movements they were intended to make possible are restricted by the operator's inability to literally find a place to hold the camera. With the introduction of professional high definition cameras in handheld format, "handheld" cameras may weigh as much as 6 lbs - not an easy weight to manage all day with only one hand.
