I just unpacked this shoulder pad. It took about 10-5 minutes to assemble and install my Sony FX6. Looks great. Feels solid. I'm trying to build a setup that looks like my shoulder-mounted news camera that I've been shooting with for years. I don't plan to use the following trick. This is good, light and economical shoulder gear for run and gun shooting. The gun mount handle also protects the camera mount. I would recommend.
