I mostly bought it when I was holding my Canon 6D in my hands. And with that camera, mic and external light, this setup seems too heavy. The all-plastic body is light enough for a small GoPro action camera, but for a large DSLR with a light and mic, this thing looks like it'll break in two. and my Canon 6D. On the right side is the handle of the Canon 6D, where the battery is located. Therefore, you need to balance it. Then I took her outside to record the cat to see how stable the camera was. I didn't turn on the light. I was surprised he held up well. The Canon 6D weighs just over 2 pounds. I still feel like I have to be very careful with it. If it was all carbon I would be in, but instead I might have to return it or keep it for my smaller action camera and buy an all metal grip for my Canon 6D. I will test at home. For now I'll be using my tripod and stabilizer with the Canon 6D on the go. I checked the description again and it doesn't say what the composition of the material is. The seller needs to update the description so people know what they are buying.
