This video was definitely interesting but my concerns about this arm are... Is this think... One handed user-friendly to change positions of a monitor? Maybe small rig or andycine is better for that.
The Andycine box actually is waterproof and I used it for my IEM's (The one I have isn't branded Andycine). I only got the alen key though and nothing of the rest you got.
Perfect timing as I was after a mount for my new monitor. I ended up with a Wooden Camera Ultra Arm Mini which I love as it’s so well made and very flexible. The modularity is what made me spend the extra as there are so many options for pretty much any situation.
I have the T7 as well, with the Nitze cage & sunhood. I went with the Nitze N54-G1 tilt/swivel mount, mainly because the tightening ring/nut for the shoe mount has a built-in lever, so I can tighten & loosen it securely without needing an Allen wrench that I'll lose. It was $30, so in the same price range as the two tilt/swivel mounts you compared. It also has Arri pins on the monitor end, which is nice, I find that the plain screw mounts always loosen and spin at exactly the worst time. Personally I find magic arms to be really frustrating when shooting anywhere but on a tripod, since you need two hands to adjust the monitor with them. Their range of motion is nice I guess, but I rarely want the monitor in a different place, just at a different angle.
Enjoy all, are there any I missed?

Many thanks, I’ll add this to the list for my part 2 video 👍🏻
Thank you so much. I appreciate you taking the time to make this.

Nice one, I’ll try the Nitze 👍🏻
the smallrig monitor mount is too broad and blocks the audio port on my feelworld monitor. i think the andycine would be a better fit.
This kind of shabby packaging is given to fool people about thinking its a great product... !
