At point 1 still: In light suit "braking" the bottom locking screw sound while panning nasty scratch and crackling noises. Like a nail, the slowly pressed into wood.
In addition, each time finding the screw behind remains a permanent notch, which leads to a side swing (for a slight braking) to an entanglement. For me unacceptable.
The separation occurred to me still very difficult, because the rest of the processing was just perfect and absolute Hightech Feeling mediated. Everything precisely adjustable and super robust when it comes to the camera weight.
Too bad!
The settlement via Amazon ran perfectly.
