FlexShooter FS02030 Reviews

Flexshoter Extreme

By Mauro

This is a state of the art gimbal + ballhead which can easily handle a camera body and the larger 600 mm prime lenses. Contrary to the standard ballhead, the spring mechanism will not allow the lens to fall. Movement is smooth and I do not see the vibrations I get with standard gimbals. This will be my go-to solution for video & shots moving fwd.

Excellent product!
