Review on πŸ“· FILMCITY DSLR Camera Shoulder Support Rig Kit with Cage & Matte Box: Enhance Stability and Control for DV HDV DSLR Video Camcorders – Includes Free Offset Z Bracket (FC-02) by Eddy Borghesi

Revainrating 2 out of 5

This is a great facility. for video

I really like this setup. easy to assemble and convenient to use. The kit I bought did not include a focus ring adapter and I didn't realize at the time how much I wish I could pay a little more to get one. But that's definitely not a deal breaker. Just something beautiful. The only problem I have is that the angles of the "C" shaped bracket aren't quite right. I mean if you look at the product picture. The bracket holds the handle on top and then connects to the base. My top is not parallel to the bottom. So if I just hold the rig by the top handle, my camera actually tilts pretty low on the left. And there is no rule for that. These clips are nylon/plastic so I imagine although they fit perfectly the same will happen over time. I don't think I've read a review where anyone else had this problem. so it might just be the one i got. Also, from what I've read, the customer service from this company is really good (I know the shipping was insanely fast, no matter what the tracking says). So I'm pretty sure if I contacted them they would replace the brackets. But what I do hasn't really affected my recordings.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Easy maintainability
