1. An apparatus for providing video images using dual loop image stabilization, comprising:

  • a video camera positioned on a moveable platform and configured to provide a video image of a scene, the video camera including a first image stability control component configured to at least partially stabilize the video image when the video camera is subjected to a first motion environment including a first amplitude range and a first frequency range;

    a second image stability control component coupled between the video camera and the moveable platform and configured to at least partially stabilize the video image when the video camera is subjected to a second motion environment including a second amplitude range and a second frequency range; and

    a motion sensing device coupled to the video camera and configured to detect movement of the video camera relative to the scene and to transmit a control signal to the second image stability control component to adjust a stabilization response of the second image stability control component according to the movement of the video camera.
