[0.55 lb] This is a very heavy and solid boom arm. The counterweight is a nice feature which allows good balance with a heavy stereo mic array. Highly recommended.

[Steadicam Volt] The arm feels sturdy and quality. The clutch is smooth and the counter weight work as it should. The length holds the wireless mic perfectly in the center of the grand piano without any fear of sagging.

[Steadicam Volt] Rarely do I fly my Steadicam without my Zen attached. The precision and accuracy is phenomenal, and calibrating it right after I've found my perfect balance is a breeze. Though I'm not always trying to keep it all green and centered up because ether shot will demand otherwise, I still love having the visual indicator in my periphery (I mount mine below my monitor with a custom 3D printed bracket) because it helps me understand the exact movement that my sled is going through or where it is in space without having to rely on visual indicators on the monitor. The pan function is really interesting but I haven't found a use for it yet. I've already done a software update through the USB-C (which can also be used to power the unit) and it's super easy, gave me new features! The customization on how you can display what axis or axes, or G-forcd even, and define the sensitivity and format of display and everything. So much packed into this simple little rectangle, it's my favorite!

[Steadicam Volt] Although, I'm repurposing this to use with a flange and drop two mics beneath ceiling level for recording... Delivery was almost instant, and most importantly these days, in stock.

[Steadicam Volt] Great quality! The counterweight is HEAVY--the way they all should be!

[0.55 lb] Yes, it's very expensive, but if you need it, it's outstanding. It covers a lot of ground and if you set it up right you can keep the adjustment nut within reach so you can make little adjustments as needed. I play keyboards, and normal sized booms weren't cutting it. This one works. Does exactly what you need it to do.

[0.55 lb] I bought this boom arm to add to my existing K&M stand which originally came with a shorter boom. This was exactly what I needed to extend in to my grand piano without dropping the mic on the strings. I am using it with a Soundelux U195 large diaphragm condenser microphone. The counterweight is perfect to keep the balance and not allow the arm to drop once in place.

[0.55 lb] This body cap is one of the best. It's light weight and is not distracting. Does a great job protecting the sensor on my Sony E mount cameras.

[0.55 lb] A brilliant device designed to last for generations. With the sliding counterweight, this workhorse can be perfectly balanced on a stand with almost any microphone. The build quality is phenomenon with excellent craftsmanship from head to the toe. usually, I say expect only what you pay for, but in this case you can expect much more.
