- The Edelkrone FlexTilt Max looks to be a versatile gadget that can be a mini tripod, ballhead replacement, camera stabilizer, and more. But is it a game-changer or a gimmick? Here are 3 things I love about this product, and 2 things I don't like.

I've been waiting for a review of this!
I too have seen wayyy too many instagram ads and this probably convinced me.
Very interesting… thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the review. One thing that I can't seem to find in any of the videos is, whether the bottom attachment (where it attaches to the tripod) rotates. I think that Flextilt Original does rotate, but never seen Flextilt Max being shown that it does. Another thing I have not seen anyone do is, how useful is it if you wanted to use camera in portrait mode.
AAWESOME REVIEW
This looks cool Mam.. Thank you for sharing cons as well 🙂✌️
How does it hold a full frame Sony camera? Looks like it would fall over?
I tested it with my Sony a7IV and 20mm f/1.8 lens. It CAN be very stable as long as the joints are locked into place and you choose a stable configuration. I wouldn’t use it with a big telephoto lens, but a FF Sony with small to medium lens could work well with this.
It looks cool 😎
Lovely review, I think I'll hold off until the next generation for now. edlekrone makes some fun and quirky little products but it's hard to find good thorough reviews like this!
With a few improvements, this would be the ideal product. Hopefully the next version is even better!
It looks pretty neat G C
Interesting product and nice review. I'm curious about it but i don't think i will buy for testing
Pls how much is it and how can I buy one
Link is in the description below. You can also buy directly from Edelkrone’s website. It’s about $70 USD.
I wish peak design would buy edelkrone. edelkrone’s products are good, but need to be finessed. I have several edelkrone products and they just plain leave necessary things out-like switches. it’s crazy to burn through batteries because there is no switch (this is also a pretty unique omission). in the case of this flextiltmax (I too have the original) and yes, it does look tempting, though also a bit unstable, but the missing slot/magnet for the allen key is crazy (and exactly the sort of feature that peak design engineers into their products).
I agree - this is the 4th Edelkrone product that I’ve purchased, and I’ve found that while there’s a lot to love, each product could “do with some finessing,” as you say.
If PD buys edelkrone expect the price to double. PD products are innovative but a bit overpriced.
I would call it a camera stand.
Yeah, that’s a good description.
I'de be super scared of it tipping over, My little Zv E10 feels so much heavier with a cage on I couldn't trust something like this
Depending on the configuration you have it in, it’s can be quite stable. The joints are rock solid when locked into place. But since you’re given so much freedom in how you posture it, it’s important you make sure the balance is right for your camera.
This thing is so cute 😮
Before I watch this I'm going with gimmick.
It’s a cool concept. A few things could be tweaked to make it easier to use though.
@@Gemini_Connect I think for a 360 camera or like the Pocket 3 (as you demonstrated) it’s fabulous. I would absolutely add it to my inventory as I’m a big fan of machined aluminum.
Have a great day.
There we have it again, sexist tiny pockets on women's wear. This will easily fit in pretty much any jeans pocket for men. Would it be comfortable? Absolutely not. (rant over)
I actually like it. I have used something similar (likely a clone of the first version) before on a slider to quickly get different camera angles. Worked great, but of course introduced shake if extended too high or too far out. Now that I have a higher quality slider with more axis, I no longer need it for that, but I am still keeping it around for it's easy height and angle adjustments.
PS. You have a lot of patience with answering questions in the comments about things you mentioned in the video. Good on you!
I hate how small (or nonexistent) pockets are on women’s clothing 😝
@@Gemini_Connect you're right. My wife is absolutely delighted about the rare pocket in a skirt.
Have you ever reviewed anything with DJI cameras…??? 😮
She shows the DJI Pocket 3 multiple times in the video, so I'm pretty sure the answer is yes.
Yes, tons of Pocket 3 and Action 4 videos on the channel.
