ALMOST good product. Will NOT work properly with Neewer's own Tripod Leveling Base!

Also, for CORRECT panning, you will need both the "Slip Knot Guide" and the "Tripod Leveling Base" which Neewer also sells. (You can do without a leveling base IF you don't mind leveling your tripod with the more cumbersome method of adjusting each tripod leg each time.) THE PROBLEM is that the horizontal locking knurled nut at the base of this tripod gimbal becomes COMPLETELY BROKEN. with tabs on tripod leveling base. YOUR OWN PRODUCT! Also, you cannot remove the locking wing nut to replace it with another handle. Now. I understand that NEEWER did not design or manufacture these products. This is a company that simply finds relatively good and inexpensive products from other companies and gives them the Neewer brand. This shows that they DON'T THINK when creating "their" product line. SOLUTION: I figured the best way to deal with this would be to take a dremel tool and cut off the wing nut. The result is a little less real estate to buy with your fingers, but it works. WARNING: This may void your warranty! Put on your glasses!
