This setup packs a punch! Most of these devices cost over $100, if not $200 or more. It's well built and holds my fairly heavy/old DSLR with ease. Everyone who sees me with it asks how much it cost and where I got it from. This is definitely one of my best Amazon finds of the year. I gave 4 stars because the puffs come off easily at the end. I replaced mine with locknuts. Since I do video and photo races, I need to switch this thing over real quick. From a shoulder mount to a single grip for low-angle shooting. Although this thing changes quickly, the wing nuts on the ends can come loose if you're not careful. I shouldn't give 4 stars because I'm an idiot and have lost 2 so far, but there should be an attachment point where the nut doesn't fall out. However, it's cheap, so I have no idea why I'm complaining about it. And by cheap I mean the price. not quality. It's well built. Absolutely worth every penny!
