Very inexpensive intro to smoother camera motion shots.
JWFisher•May 2, 2017
Very light weight all plastic design, comfortable foam grip, and highly adjustable screw for locating your camera just right.
I've used this with a mirror-less, a DSLR and my iPhone, it worked perfect for all of them. There is no magic bullet, you have to use best practice to get the smooth "flight" shot you want, and you'll need to practice, but this device is spot on for it.
Pros:
Light weight
highly adjustable camera location
Feet will let you set this down on any levelish surface
Cons:
takes some practice, there is no mechanical or electronic balance to help smooth things out, this is all up to you.

Turn Amateur Footage Into Professional Quality Footage: Improve stability and add a shotgun mic for pro sound and/or lighting!
DP & Lead Cinematographer, Hollywood USA•October 21, 2016
This X-Grip is the best accessory I've ever purchased for my Sony FDR AX33 4k camcorder. I am able to mount the camcorder with the grip's handle on the left side and the camcorder's hand grip on the right side giving me amazing stability. I added a dual cold shoe mount so I could add a light and my Rode shotgun/boom microphone, giving me the ability to get footage that looks and sounds professional. The Rode shotgun microphone gives me crystal clear professional sound. I am able to clearly hear the voices of the people I am filming from over 10 feet away, and it sounds as if they are wear a lapel microphone. This X-Grip is essential if you want to shoot stable, professional looking video, with the option to add a high end microphone or lighting system.
Great for starting videographers

Why film handheld when you could do a better job using this product? I have many stabilization gear but I started with this one. Multiple configurations to setuo your cam. I like to use it for low shots with a wide angle lens. You can also install a light on top with the included flash hot shoe. This is a great starting point if you want an economic stabilizer.
Good product

Great fit for my DSLR camera, not heavy duty but it does the job.
The mounting plate has a few options you can choose from depending on your camera's specs. This grip works for a great variety of cameras. It could go from a small camera to big cameras. I own a T3i and personally I think it works fantastic with it. It's not the best stabilizer since the footage can still look a bit shaky if its not handled properly but other than that it works pretty well.
The handle is covered in foam which makes it rather comfortable especially when shooting for a long time. On the other hand it feels a bit flexible but it doesn't seem like something to be worried about.
Overall this grip is an inexpensive tool that definitely improves the grip on your camera and despite a few flaws it does what its meant to do.

Smells like Sex Panther...
Randy D.•April 23, 2016
Works as advertised however, the strong smell everyone talks about.... it's noticeable. It gives you headaches and it takes a long time to go away. I've had this for a few weeks now and it still smells. Of course you'll get over it but, it lingers like a silent fart. Once it hits you, it stings the nostrils.
