Not worth the investment in Electronics

i was hoping this would be a good addition to my camera equipment but I was disappointed. Through trial and error, i found that this release is not as reliable as I hoped .The release mechanism is not smooth, which caused me to miss some important shots. The only positive thing is that it fits with Manfrotto types, but that`s not enough to outweigh the negatives. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this product..

Pros
  • Compatible with Manfrotto type plates which allows for quick and easy swapping of cameras on the Ronin S gimbal.
Cons
  • May require some adjustment to fit properly on some camera bodies.

Excellent Compatible Gimbal Plate

This compatible gimbal plate is a game-changer for my videography work. After I put it to the test with my Ronin S and other Manfrotto accessories I was impressed with its stability and convenience .The plate is well-built, sturdy, and fits perfectly with my Ronin S. It saved me a lot of time and effort when I need to switch between different accessories. The only downside is that it's a bit pricey compared to other options on the market. Overall, I`m happy with my purchase and would recommend…

Pros
  • Compatible with Manfrotto type tripod plates
Cons
  • Only compatible with the Ronin S, not other gimbal models

Do not buy! for camera mounts and clamps

Plate does not work on RS2 due to tolerance. I used an Az camera and a Sirui 35mm lens with a wide adapter (heavy front). I bought it to balance the front weight. It did not work. Fortunately, I quickly checked the plate again and found that it had slipped. This oven is not safe. I would mess up the camera setup if I trusted that without double checking. I don't know if this was a defect but I read other reviews that had the same portability issue. Do not buy.

Pros
  • Camera and photo
Cons
  • Negative present
