Rifle Style Mount StediStock II |
| Latest Review Posted | Rifle Style Mount StediStock II
I find the Stedi-Stock better for tracking than using a gimbal for birds flying overhead. For birds moving laterally or at a distance I prefer the gimbal.
Finding the subject with a large lens is easier with a StediStock than a gimbal for me. I think this is beacuse the motion is more natural than using a gimbal with a fixed pivot point. For overhead shots a gimbal is very difficult whereas the StediStock is easy.
You need to order a second thumb screw or else large lenses will twist off the mount. With a second thumb screw the mount is very secure. The second thumb screw can be ordered with the StediStock II if you call the manufacturer. If you buy the StediStock II online, as I did from B&H, you need to call the manufacturer to order the thumb screw. |
