If you had shake problems

If you had shake problems with the tripod, then that’s a tripod issue, not the thing on top of it.

I’ve always had the opinion in this game that latest models of anything are frequently problematic. I always wait at least 6 months into a new model if I want to go for that one, but I normally buy expensive kit second hand now – deliberately going for the models people who are chasing the new ones sell off cheap – so I’m always one model behind and it works fantastically now the moving head machines are old – solid state two year old kit is excellent value for money. I compare old features to the benefits. A feature is pointless without a clear benefit.
