Review on Manfrotto 023 10 lbs Counterweight,Orange: Stability Booster for Camera Equipment by Michael Pickering

This counterweight does exactly what it's supposed to do. I chose it over others that cost a lot less because others didn't have rubber inside the V to protect the posts from damage or scratches. I love working with a pen similar to my Paul C. Buff Einstein pen. I would give it 5 stars but the protective rubber piece I mentioned is only on the V. It is not on the inside of the top black clip. I've ordered the exact same counterweight again if that helps.
