From my point of view - it means that as a run-and-gun shooter of narrative, I can essentially have an extra cameraman on tap.

That means I can shoot a close-up whilst it handles the wide, or in extremis it can shoot a wide shot and I can hold the boom mic :)

Given the cost of the SoloShot is less than 1 day of hiring a camera op who knows what they're doing, it's a pretty good deal.
