An easy product to use.
Provides good balance of use, the foot that is on the bottom makes it easy to put it down.

Overall a comfortable stable camera and its accessories holder. The kit came with (2) cold shoe extension arms. It's been a week (store closed all week) and I'm still trying to figure out how to mount the extension brackets to the top of the kit rig. I need to mount a continuous light over the lens to prevent undue shadows. The slots in the rig are smaller than 1/4" and all of the fasteners, D type and shoe mounts of course are all 1/4" -20. I'm sure the answer is going to be for $2 I could have bought a do-dad that would have solved all my problems. Instead of being included, I've been left all week with a lego kit that is smarter than I am. I will make an earnest effort respecting the holidays, try customer support - but its a shame if I have to return this otherwise feel good frame due to incomplete kit packaging and lack of instructions.

Low price solution for a DSLR cage. Well made and adjustable bracket. Minor complaint, two plastic mounts everything else metal.

I bought this product so I could mount my wireless lav receiver and zoom h4n near my Canon 60D. It works great and when holding both handles it is a nice stabilizer. Also when you flip out the legs at the bottom you can set it on the ground; it is nice to get low perspective shots.
ONE CON: If you are shooting handheld with a lens f/1.8 or lower and have to continuously focus it is difficult to hold the rig steady and focus at the same time.

I saw this bracket at Photo Expo in NYC and really liked it. I bought it just after the Holidays on a trip to B&H and it is great. The amount of mountable items you can put on it is terrific. It balances like a Steady Cam with just 2 fingers. You gotta try this one
