SmallRig 5508 Reviews

Well made with a lot of features

I am using this stabilizer "shock absorber" with my DJI Pocket 4P camera and am very impressed with the shock absorber. It is well-made with metal, and it gives you a lot options. By tilting the locking adjustment mechanism on the frame with the rosette joint to just the right angle, you can get the arm almost exactly horizontal. When I then experimented with the damper tension setting, I was able to shoot very smooth footage even while walking in my backyard which has more variance than a sidewalk. I highly recommend this device. I got some very good advice on how to set it up and use it from an AI assistant. You can figure out how to use it without getting AI advice, but I learned some important things from the AI assistant. Also, I have the base of the shock absorber attached to a bracket with two handles. I get smoother footage with a two-handle set up.

The Perfect Addition
