📸 Yosoo Aluminum Alloy Folding Z Flex Tilt Head Camera Bracket: Ultimate Tripod Ball Head for Canon Nikon Sony Cameras Review

Yosoo Aluminum Alloy Folding Z Flex works well for the most part but you must have a key tool with this item to make it work as it's supposed to . I usually have to tighten it at least half a dozen times within a few days of use. When tightened, it can securely hold a smaller camera with a lighter, lower profile lens. I wouldn't trust this in all situations, but it works for the right task.

This is a great product as a macro stand for point and shoot cameras. Ignore the "quick release" and "ball head" claims, but that's great publicity!

Upon inspection, I'm pretty sure the part in question is NOT plastic, but if it's aluminum, it's the weakest aluminum I've ever come across. Also, "simple" must have a secret second meaning. It's not lead brick or anything, but oh my god…

I bought this as an alternative to my ball head to use with my flat mount (homemade platypod version). It seemed great right away. I use a Nikon D3400 with a 75-300 lens. After installing it on the plate and camera, I moved it to several stretched positions. It still seemed great. Then I removed the camera and found the first mistake. The 1/4 inch screw for the camera has been loosened. I was able to fix it by unscrewing it from the wheel it was on, applying superglue to some of the bottom…
