Cam CaddieScorpion EX Video Camera Stabilizing Handle Kit with Included Smartphone and GoPro Compatible Mounts - Professional Bundle - Black

Make sure you know what you are buying. This is NOT a gimbal or some device that will make your video smoother than what you will get holding it by hand alone. The steadiness of your hands will dictate the steadiness of your video. You have shaky hands, you will get shaky video. The video segment of balancing the rig on one finger means nothing. Try shooting some video with only one finger on the rig and it will be horrible. This device is most useful for mounting accessories such as a short shotgun mic, or an external recorder, on a tripod. Without the cheeseplate this device is worthless because you can't hope to get any steady shots without mounting the camera on a tripod. How often are you really going to be shooting video at a low level angle at a guy on a skateboard, or of a running dog? Invest in a good quick-release plate to get it off tripod quickly if you want to get some hand-held shots. I don't want to sound like I'm knocking the product. Just know what you're buying and what you can realistically expect to get from it.

So just getting into videography and needed a rig.Have a great DSLR and a small handheld cam and wanted the flexibility to mount lights and/or external mic and recorder.The Scorpion EX fitted my requirements and decided to get the EX kit as it was cheaper than getting each accessory independently.Every item is well crafted and designed but the flashner connector was not exactly straight and made the accessory wing "wobble" to the point it then bent.Contacted Camcaddy's customer service and they quickly sent out a replacement flashner and asking to send them the broken item with a pre-paid label.I also contacted them regards difficulty getting the stabiliser on, to which they advised a little more "force" to put it on the ScorpionEX. I did this and the rig is very-stable now.Great ProductGreat Support

It's ok... I had higher hopes for its ability to stabilize the camera. It does a good job of holding the camera, lighting, mic, etc. However, unless you mount it on something you get a lot of shaky video. I'm in search of a better way to stabilize it.

simple design but works very well and made of durable material. I trust it to handle my equipment, and because of the simple design makes it easy to configure. I like it and thinking of buying more in the near future.

If you want to have the ability to be mobile and shoot some really great video, depending on camera or camcorder it will be amazing. With the Canon 7D it's 100% no! Plus make sure it works with the tripods you own as well.

Works well with my sony handycam axe 33. Inuse it fornparanormal investigations

The box looked like the unit had been previously opened and used. It is missing the Smart Phone adapter that was stated in the description. Would like to get what I paid for - feeling ripped off.

It's my second one. I love it!!!!!!

Great product with all the necessary rigs you are looking for.

El producto esta bien aunque me esperaba que la estructura fuera metalica pero es de plástico, supongo que su duración será limitada por esta razón. La plaqueta para poner en el tripode y demás complementos hacer que sea muy funcional para accesorios como un monitor, micrófono,etc. aunque no creo que aguante mucha carga.En cuanto a precio podría ser mas barato por lo que comentè del material.

The Cam Caddie kit has all the extra accessories to attach what you need to your DSLR. The weight and design allow for the added stabilization to step up the quality of shooting with my Canon T3i. Everything is solid, attractive and well designed - I love it!

Great, just as described, fast shipping, price was right, just need time to play with it.
