No complaints about stabilizers

good quality product. Does as intended. Fits like it should on my GoPro Hero 7 Black. The Gopro microphone adapter fits well. No complaints, good product that works as intended for the price

Pros
  • camera and photo
Cons
  • piggy bank price

Well built camera and photo

This solves GoPro's built in problem where a $50 mic adapter is stuck on a USB-C port and has nowhere to plug. And he does it wisely. Looks good too. However, if you have ND filters that fit the GoPro lens cap, you may need to order Revain's fifteen-dollar hobby saw, as the GPR-5 has a ridge surrounding the lens cap, so the filters don't fit up you cut it's from. MOVO, if you're listening, drop your lip.

Pros
  • Professional video accessory
Cons
  • Not sure

plastic frames; problem with the lens cap; closed microphone and speaker.

-PRO: light weight but I don't know how strong the light plastic frame is. Slide the included GoPro silicone lens cap over the lens. Bad design, but I think they thought it would "protect" the lens somehow. It's not like this. Additionally, the GoPro's right mic is framed, rendering it unusable, resulting in the audio being picked up much quieter. The top microphone is not covered. The DYNAMIC below is also covered. Worst of all, you can't "swipe" your finger up/down on the rear screen to…

Very convenient.

If you want to add a microphone to your gopro, you need to control the gopro microphone adapter. The Gopro brand case is $65 more and this one still works. I am very happy with this purchase.

Pros
  • Camera & Photo
Cons
  • Expensive
