The button is facing that way so you don't accidental hit it facing the other way. Besides, the locking mechanism on the clip doesn't "lock" the base to the plate or change the way its secured, it locks the button from accidental presses. So in theory the placement of the button is very well thought out. Other than that, very informative and detailed video. Thanks for the education
I have been researching this system and got some parts on order. But with all my research I saw that you can unscrew the plate off the gimble plate with some screws. and beings it is square you could unscrew it and turn it around to change the location of the pin.
Great review! I like the demo with the tripod legs. Do you think this is suitable using a gimbal extension pole in case I want to put on at the bottom of my gimbal?
Hi Desy! I noticed that you have a Canon R5, and was wondering if you at any point encountered issues with the quick release plate slipping? I've had the quick release system for a few months now on my R6. There was no issues at first, but in the past month, there is nothing that I can do to secure the darn thing! All the threads look good (no wear), and I wondering if the screw is just not long enough to secure the plate over time.
@@DesmondCheng after watching your video I bought it! And I appreciate it a lot. I am excited to make my channel better.. starting from these small things. Thank you a lot. I am happy to have subscribed to your channel 🙏🙏🙏
Is it possible to buy the base plate separately. Looking at the Ulanzi site and Amazon I can't see an option to do this - I only need 1 top plate and 3 base plates
hi, I noticed they have a generation II (different model) , have you had a chance to try it? It seems to me the first one is smaller and probably I would prefer the original model.
hey... how are you? I have this system and the only problem I have is with the one in the DJI tripod... idk why but I need tide the screw every time... do you have a solution for this? thanks
It's disappointing that you can't use this, or any other brand directly with an L bracket because you can only clip it on with the camera lens pointing sideways, not vertically. No good for longer lenses. If I'm mistaken, please correct me, thanks!
that is correct, if you had an L bracket on your camera, you will not be able to use this. Unless you screw in the quick release plate to the bottom of the L bracket
I wish you had showed real world scenario like how the camera behave when attached to the neck strap since it’s attached from the bottom of the camera. Same with the backpack
@@JoshKaufmanstuff Sooooo you can, however then the camera would have to get slotted in from the right side as opposed to the left side. The problem about that is, the gimbal arm is in the way! So in order to make it actually funcitonal, it has to be that one side!
The base plate sucks... It keeps getting loose no matter how tight you screw it. You can't even turn your camera to the sides on a ball head that the plate will twist beneath the camera.
