Stabilization filters

I have shakey footage from a helicopter shot on a Canon 5D Mark II and a Canon FX305. Any ideas for some really good stabilization filters I could buy? The FCP one doesn't work very well. I need some high-end filters. Thanks.

If it's like any other 5D chopper footage I have seen it's not just stabilization you'll have to deal with. It will also be rolling shutter artefacts, a.k.a. JelloCam. Not a lot of filters can remove that, although there are some techniques for removing them in AfterEffects.

What do you recommend for both the JelloCam and stabilization? The FX305 just needs stabilization. Client wants to spend money to save this footage so any plugins or third party programs are fine. Just let me know some products. AE and FCP aren't cutting it.

You can try this:

There's a free 15 day trial so you can see if it works. Stabilization is easy if you Jave something to track. After Effects has Mocha, so you can use that.

Try Lock&Load. It does stabilization and has an anti-jello feature too. I think I paid maybe $150 or $200 for it. I forget.
