Purchased used - and very satisfied. Impressively smooth, balanced felt after 2 minutes (ok, were about 5-6 minutes ...) and working properly. I immediately made some "trial runs" that have failed to complete satisfaction. As camera functions in purchasing the Panasonic HC-X 929 with 417 gr. Weight. That's why I had to remove two of Tariongewichte. Ok, I have long ago dealt with such a technique, which is why the launch so successful. The progress can be practiced is already clear, but for the first use of wars just great! The quick release plate fits the way on my Manfrottokopf MVH 500 AH, but not for pushing but put on top. Conversely, however, does not fit the Manfrottoplatte to Tarion. Let's see how I'm going to use in practice. Maybe I can modify the Tarion board ... As I have already changed or created often Camera Accessories, me should not be difficult for the. See also my studio Bonn YT channel. All in all, I do not regret the purchase and am satisfied with the initial results, as they have shown me that I will work in the future even more with the part.
