I've done 2 weeks so far on Camera 2 with the "bad" projector and I've noticed that the shading is not too bad as long as you don't get too close to saturation. I've switched on my headset to give shading tips more often than usual though. Sounds like I may get another chance.

I think the biggest problem with the shakiness is the amount of play in the vertical axis on the tripods. When the pastor(usually Josh) paces back and forth across the stage the camera may only need to be lifted a tiny bit to keep the headroom, but the tripod doesn't actually move with regards to the vertical axis. This is great when said pastor returns to the podium because when you release pressure the headroom goes back to what it was. When the speaker is stationary and you need to adjust the headroom just a tiny bit that's when you can get the shakiness because you know the tripod actually has to give a little before you can release pressure and then when it does give you get more movement than you wanted. A thing I've been doing a lot more lately is erring on the side of a little more headroom than needed when the speaker is stationary (which is not usually for long) so that when the pastor is moving no vertical adjustment/pressure is needed during a move. It's also easier to move down if the pastor goes right back to the podium rather than pushing up and hoping that it doesn't jerk around too much.
