Hi there, thanks for the review, I found it very useful. I'm a big quad lock user as well. I've been thinking about getting one but I do believe it's overpriced and after watching your review I have no doubts, I won't be getting one unless the price drops a lot. I have the camera tripod screw adaptor which I use to attach the phone to a flexible legs tripod and I'll stick to that for now, it's way bigger but that's the only con I can think of. Thanks again!

[@DanEscapes]

If you have that system already I’d say still with that. More versatile being able to put on larger tripods. This is handy if you want to travel with a small package but equally you can buy a small tripod.

[@cerfux]

@@DanEscapes yeah, I agree with you.

Nicely done ✅ … Big Quadlock user here from motorcycling, but it’s evolved for me over the years. Now have it in both cars, both motorcycles, office desk, mountainbikes, Zwift set up. It’s a QL world I’m in. I just ordered this today to help in a series of videos we’re doing. I think for the cost it will work out to be pretty good value. It’s not sold as a gimble but combining with a late model iPhone (Sept?) with some anti footage shake properties it should be okay. I use separate audio generally too.

[@DanEscapes]

It’s great that the QL system works in multiple situations. After this video I found that the inbody stabilisation ob the wide angle lens isn’t great. When paired with main lens and sensor it works a lot better. But agreed audio is better recorded separately. What do you use to record sound?

[@TheRiderGuider]

@@DanEscapes we use Rode Wireless GO2. DJI also have a similar quality set up. Both decent. If it’s just a sole user, you can get individual transmitters with Rode.

Helpful video man thanks

[@DanEscapes]

Glad it helped and thank you for watching!!

[@achimschneider1937]

Very helpful video. Hopefully Quadlock is improving the disadvantages.

[@DanEscapes]

Thank you for watching and hopefully they do!

Is their a button to take photos or so users need to set it to timer mode?

[@DanEscapes]

Unfortunately no button, you will need to set a timer.

[@chickobabe6925]

Does this have a button for when you want to take a selfie with or without it extended?

[@DanEscapes]

Unfortunately it does not, would be a great feature. I’m sure you could find an external Bluetooth button to stick to it.

[@ccsatine]

I want them to release a longer rod so you can film standing content.

[@DanEscapes]

That would be very good, limited to low shots with this unless you find a wall

[@briteidea08]

They make a tripod adapter. So if you have regular tripod. You can screw the adapter on the tripod.
