Not Worth the Investment

When I tried this product in my home and kitchen, I found it to be very flimsy and not supportive enough for my cameras... The design is not practical and the adjustments are difficult to make. My biggest concern is the risk of dropping my expensive equipment due to the lack of stability..

Pros
  • None
Cons
  • Flimsy construction, impractical design.

Great addition to my streaming setup!

I purchased this boom arm to use in my home office for streaming and it has been a game changer.The articulating arm allows me to easily move my mic around while still keeping it out of the way. As a result of using this product I found that my audio quality has improved and my viewers appreciate the clear and consistent sound. The only downside is that it was a bit tricky to install, but once it was up it worked perfectly..

Pros
  • improved audio quality, ease of movement
Cons
  • tricky installation

One of a kind, there are other tripod arms but none quite like this one. Ideal for macro shots or to increase the height of an already extended center column. Build quality is good, it's aluminum with plastic inserts, it's relatively light and pretty solid after blocking. Yes, it would be nice if the jagged section was longer, it would be nice if the construction was sturdier, but it's a great compromise for light weight and added versatility in the field when towing a tripod. outside again…

Pros
  • Combines gear/extending lift with 180 degree tilt arm and 360 degree horizontal pan.
Cons
  • Only available in white
