Too weak for real outdoor use. I attached it to a tree and you can see that the weight of the camera and the body of the Brino is a bit more than the device can support. The elasticity of the bent arm is too much, and I could see the wind swaying the camera. I hope the shutter speeds are fast enough to make up for that, but they should have been metal, not plastic, and for the price, that's to be expected. For a long-term construction project, they must be made of metal and be durable.
