That needs to work with Steadycam much patience is the nature of levitation tripods. Patient practice and hours of balancing should be understood for tripod users as well as modifications to the device as part of the work. The device allows adjustment possibilities where they are most needed. The reason why this is the entry level, is initially the cheap price. The basic framework is robust and the bearings in the quality of high-quality sports equipment. Small structural deficiencies must be corrected. The individual improvements include the removal of the silicone grip which can be anyway elsewhere better use and modifications to the XY slide. The weights can be moved quickly and with too complementary plastic washers you can improve here feel even further.
The device has a total rubust the price accordingly. The error can be found and repaired by a skilled hobbyist. But who is looking for a tripod for nearly professional recordings, should expect a much higher price.
Five stars for the excellent price-performance ratio.
