Review on πŸ“· IFOOTAGE Aluminum Handheld Camera Stabilizer 20 inches Video Steadycam Stabilizer for DSLR Cameras and Camcorders – Up to 6.6 lbs Load Capacity by Lucia Brown

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Durable and better suited to speed and environmental conditions

The materials are durable and can definitely take some thrills and splashes, unlike a gimbal which can only handle thrills. As someone who loves cheap thrills I can say I'm glad I got this instead of an expensive gimble. As with all stabilizers of this type, achieving stability is not an easy task. Suggest lots of exercise. Using it also requires practice and memorizing the position and numbers on the sides of the Swiss mounts. It took me about 20 minutes from unpacking to complete installation. My advice on how to hold this comfortably for long periods of time would be to keep the grip completely perpendicular to the ground and keep your elbow on your waist/abdomen when shooting (instead of keeping your entire right arm in front of you). . with outstretched arms). Then the only difficult part is using the other hand to manipulate the setup so that the camera is pointed at the scene. All in all, a VERY good upgrade to make your videos super smooth without the hassle of (and expensive) hardware. The best thing is that the price suits me since I only make videos as a hobby. The included shoulder bag is also made of high quality and durable material with pockets for attaching the camera and forearm support and a back pocket for a wallet or additional slim camera gear.
