Review on Neewer Camera Shoulder Rig: Ultimate Film Making Kit for DSLR and Camcorder, Soft Rubber Shoulder Pad, Dual Hand Grips - Compatible with Canon/Nikon/Sony and More (Red + Black) by Tres Carmon

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I love this tackle! Exactly what I was hoping for!

I love this setup. At $70, it fits my budget. Pros: Lightweight Helps decently with smooth panning. Makes you look amazing. People have been staring at me for the past 2 days when I've been using it. There is room for a cheap focus lever (which I have). It's pretty well done. I don't have much experience with other setups but this is good for the price. Works even for professionals. My friend is a professional videographer. He recommended it to me since he uses it. Cons: A bit difficult to assemble with instructions. As someone who plays around with instructions, look carefully at the pictures and you will understand everything. The shoulder pad is uncomfortable. I added some padding with insulation and tape. Didn't notice a lot of tremors that couldn't be fixed right away, but adding pucks at the end really helped. (Just did this today. Lead reviewer mentions this. It costs about $10-$15). Sometimes the slide plate doesn't want to move properly, but that's mostly due to my user error. but nothing that can't be fixed.

Pros
  • GOLS certification
Cons
  • Weight
