Sure. As long as the leveling base has a 3/8" male connector you can use this head with it. Our unit is still working 7 years later (really fantastic head) and we use a leveling base.

Hey Art, I loved your review. Although I still have doubts about whether to buy the MAX or the M2. I am a filmmaker and I do many interviews and REELs with two iPhones, the 14 Pro Max and 15 Pro Max. What would you recommend? Thanks in advance. Greetings!
@IddoGenuth15 күн бұрын
Hi, Art is not around but as we noted in some comments for other users - the M2 only advantage is its size and weight otherwise the MAX is the much better option so decide based on this.
@USQuailCoop17 күн бұрын
I was hoping the M2 combo simultaneous rx for both the TX's. ( I am waiting for a reply from Hollyland). The Max sounds better, better build quality (although both are solid), and since you can record, you can get separate audio if only in post-production. Still unsure what I will buy.
@IddoGenuth17 күн бұрын
The only advantage of the M2 is size and weight - if these are a must-go with the M2 but remember its shortcomings (there are quite a few) otherwise the MAX is the better option - it is heavy so using it on its own with a T-shirt might not be a good idea.

If the size of the transmitter doesn't bother you go with the Lark Max - it is just a better solution all around. Please make sure in advance that you will be able to connect it to your action camera (you will need the camera to support a 3.5mm jack or get a USB-C to 3.5mm adapter that actually works with your action camera - trust me its not always as straight forward as this sounds so do your research).

They are really surprisingly strong and don’t rattle when clicked into place. All metal is the way to go here and I’m happy so far. Here’s to hoping it has good longevity too, as I’m hoping this system will replace all the other random accessories I’ve used in the past.

I claimed warranty and waited over 8 months and finally received a Zeus 280W black. After 2 months of usage, it started overheating. It started by charging my MacBook Pro for a second and stop charging in the next second. Meanwhile, the USB-A port also stop working, Review? This is the one.

I have also been waiting for a Lens like this for many years, so I was fast to order and I was one of the first to get the Sigma 500mm 5.6 DG DN OS Sports 024 Lens. When I got it I was surprised of how small and light weight i actually is in real life. The optical image quality is excellent, the Lens is very easy to use and handle and I have been hiking in the nature for hours, just holding the Lens in m hands, I can highly recommend the Sigma 500mm 5.6 DG DN OS Sports 024 Lens ! The lock mode for the aperture ring should also be able to lock at all aperture settings. The buttons on the side should have been a bit harder, when I take the Lens from the bag, I sometimes hit a button and it will be in the wrong setting when I start to use it. About image stabilization, on Sony R-series Cameras there seems to be a bit of the same problem as with the Sony 200-600mm 5.6-6.3 G Lens, the R-series Cameras does not communicate proper enough with the in-body and Lens stabilizer, so sometimes the images get a bit blurry. I am surprised that Sony and/or Tamron do not have any compact and light weight 400mm, 500mm and 600mm Lenses ! Back in time there was the very good Minolta 400mm 4.5 for Sony A mount. It is very impressive that Sigma have made this Lens design without using "PF" ("DO") elements !

For example, you mention it can power a NON BATTERY light by plugging it into the inverter socket of this unit. You also talk about its disvantages. One of them is It can charge only 1 battery at a time even though you can attach 2 batteries to it at the same time. Thank you for such an excellent job
