The arm is easy to use and also easy to transport when folded, even with the mounted camera. Since he is from Kiunstoff (except for a few pieces at the joints) I have no fears for moisture. I have the arm already used to make just under the water surface recordings. Very good I think the tripod grip that makes the arm quickly a small tripod. Not very stable but sufficiently. Overall I am very happy with it but despite the high price.
