Paid full price then it went on sale, the following week. Adorama refunded difference. I haven't put it through it's paces yet but have shot one project on it. The handle configuration is very intuitive and easy to use... it allows me to handhold the gimbal for much longer stretches than my old Crane V2. I loaded a C300 mark2 on it and it handled the weight fine. Balance was tricky because it is so tall and top-heavy. Add some bottom weight and I think it actually works... until you try and go underslung, then the camera and gimbal don't clear. But this is really pushing the capacity of this gimbal and it can be made to work in a pinch. The camera bag is nicely made, semi rigid. Plenty of space for the gimbal and accessories. Also included a monopod that seems well built and capable of using as an extension arm for height or jib moves. I have not tested the motor controls for zoom/focus. This gimbal handles a DSLR perfectly. I mounted the 5Dmark3 on it, had zero issues.
