Manfrotto 585 ModoSteady 3-in-1 with gh1?

[Jonathan12uiz]

would this setup be able to work with the weight of the GH1?

I think people have said with the kit lens, it's too front heavy.

 

[Jonathan12uiz]

ok I was thinking the gh1 would be a bit much for it

I had to use some extra weights, around 300 grams (0,66 LBS).

I have it - not impressed at all. The Gh1 is too heavy for it. Even if you tried a lighter lens, the all plastic construction tends to flex - does not inspire confidence.

Don't get me wrong though - it can get the job done, and with a smaller & lighter poiint and shoot you would get better results

I just found what could be a proper handle; should have it in a few days. Update forthcoming.

 

[chinkster]

No.

I have one too.

Ditto.

 

[thisisapocalypse]

It does work with either the panny or olympus pancake lenses, but nothing much heavier.
