Hi Joshua25071994

All shown in this video is available through B&H or similar shops but It would set you back a dollar or two :)

what is that camo stuff all over it?

@alanbstard4

Hi. The camouflage is from the maker Lens Coat that makes lens covers in all kind of colors and variants

It's like early 90's childrens television, strangely facinating

You could say its looks like a Wimberley Sidekick but then again they do not have much in common other than being a sidemounted tripod head and utilizing from the same type of bearing.

I tend to disagree on your statement about the Sidekick being smoother.

Remember I´m using a much larger lens than the maker recommends exactly like I would do if it was a Sidekick comparison / review and therefore hard to judge smoothness.

Either way they are both superb for they size and worth a buy!

Looks like a Wimberley sidekick without a ballhead. Watching that I think the regular Wimberley gimbal head is more fluid in motion.
