To each their own.: Camera and photo

I was very excited about this product but after several days trying to use it according to the video and instructions I was more disappointed than it should have been. There's no quick-release plate, and every time you want to detach the camera you throw off balance (which is a big problem in the first place). The bolt mechanism that attaches the plate to the stabilizer bar will hardly work if the plate is too far back. Its design is very disappointing but I fully understand that this is purely a matter of taste in design. I don't like it, so I'm sending it back. Also, it doesn't really offer much stabilization. Honestly, a good smartphone camera offers the best digital stabilization. Even after watching a lot of videos on its use (which I advise everyone to do before buying) it's clear that it rocks and rocks and it's painfully obvious in the videos.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
