This is a high quality piece of equipment which allows me to install a v lock battery to power a number of pieces of kit.

A compact little setup that's very well made as you'd expect from Smallrig.Easy to use and everything locks firmly in place. It's got a decent chest pad and is a doddle to use, keeping the weight closer to you with a battery pack behind the camera.

If you are buying or have bought one of these and aren't aware you can adjust the arca clamp...you can! Ive seen a few videos on YT showing that this clamp is too small for the arca plate on the camera cage etc. however you can unscrew the lever, remove it then reinstall it a few degrees either direction to make it clamp tighter or looser. Test to make sure all your arca plates fit, then replace scew and your good to go. Hope this helps someone.

It's surprising the difference this has made to my general stability when filming, using in against my chest, shoulder etc. Really good to have that extra point of contact, spreading the fatigue about too taking some away from my arms on a long day. Usual superb Smallrig quality.

OK PRODUCT

I was skeptical about this product but it is very comfortable against the chest and really helps stabilize panning video shots. Glad I made this purchase.
