    Good review. No stabilization and no rechargeable battery is a hard pass from me. Also, TIL 24mm is not wide enough for vlogging at arm's length.

    I got this as a gift along with the A6600. I was thinking of selling it off because I have too many mini tripods but I think you convinced me to keep it.

    Fun video, you have a great youtuber personality and a great sense of pace, articulation, voice intonation, etc. :). Since I travel internationally and have the Sony a6600 it would be wonderful to have such a small device that created true gimbal quality. Still, this is a nice device. May be worth going to a camera store and trying it out.

    • @TECH360TV
      @TECH360TV  4 роки тому +1

      Thanks. We didn’t have it long enough to exhaust the battery but from what we understand battery life is good. In regards to the batteries, they are watch style batteries so don’t think there are rechargeable options. However they are quite inexpensive

      @@TECH360TV yeah sure. I totally agree about wishing the Sonys had a flip screen aka you can see yourself. I had that same issue when trying to get good framing. Also your cameraman is really good always picking up the right shots. As you as maybe tell I am a cameraman and passionate about content creation and videos. I often film for other UA-camrs here in london so I love seeing someone out about about like this raw style it's such a natural way of shooting and remind me and being put in similar situations

    If they had made the remote control part removable so you can step back and trigger the camera when out of arm’s reach, then pop the remote back onto the grip (canon has a similar remote grip that is designed this way) then I would’ve bought this! Fingers crossed for next version.

  • @GaryJahman
    @GaryJahman 4 роки тому +1

    The Tamron did a pretty good job actually! But the Shooting Grip is really...yeah not sure how to put it. This does not add any value as supposed to a Manfrotto mini tripod other than having a button in the palm of your hands to take a selfie or to press record. But I think this is more made for the Sony camera's with a flip out screen. What is the price of this actually? If the price is decent, around 60 USD/EUR then it might be something for someone...thanks again for the video!

    • @TECH360TV
      @TECH360TV  4 роки тому +1

      It’s going for 139.99 USD. Yes a flip screen will be much better for this especially for vlogging, but have to say The Eye tracking worked well.
      Yeah the Tamron is a pretty decent lens. Review on the 24 and 35 f2.8 coming soon as well

  • @StringrPress
