This stabilizer has completely changed the way I shoot video. an easy setup as it was basically assembled right out of the box. Figured it out, balanced it (thanks to their installation video on YouTube) and lifted off 20 minutes out of the box. easily supports my 5d mark iv from 24-70. Even without practice, this immediately had a huge impact on camera shake. I had a setup question and emailed them and got a response within hours so they give 5 stars for customer support as well. Great product at a fraction of the price of other mechanical stabilizers. Pros: Light weight, easy to install, huge improvement in stabilization, compact, supports up to 6lb camera, comfortable grip, Cons: I wish there was a "nifty" mounting plate on top for quick and easy adjustments. to fly. (While you can quickly tilt the plates on the bottom to accomplish the same thing, that's just my nitpick) The grip can't be moved lower on the bar for more comfortable low-angle shots. (You can still easily shoot at a low angle, you just have to hold the grip upside down). Conclusion: if you want to film on a tripod and still have usable film material, use this gimbal! It has by far been the greatest contribution to my photography and I will continue to use it and ProAM in the future.
