My EOS550D with battery grip (ie two batteries), UMS 18-250mm lens and stereo microphone weighs 1,7kg said. Therefore, I had chosen this size selected with a load capacity of 3 kg.
It began the instruction manual that came on a homemade VideoCD when unpacking the surprise. Namely, in two languages: Chinese and English with an excellent lift "annoying" music in the background and written instructions in the video. Well, you could here imagine something more professional. Without further ado, some videos on Youtube searched with hints and tips, and also found.
So I had finally managed to get the whole construct somewhat in the scale, much me the following serious problem: The blue rubber handle is not fixed, but only pushed onto the pipe construction. If I hold the handle in the horizontal begins to turn this per se, to the metal piece touches the plate.
After a short time the handle was already slipped 2cm forward.
Well, I thought, maybe I can use for my GoPro3 the equipment. However, this is clearly too easy for it.
With another camera, or a camcorder that perhaps might work. For a well-stocked DSLR but probably not.
Therefore, the article goes back, for lack of quality.
