What is a piece of Camera equipment that changed your workflow, that typically is not an exciting purchase?
a ND Filter 😂😂😂
Something that needs to be mentioned about this tripod is that you may need to tighten the bracket plates on the back of the leg clamps before use. The one I got had loose brackets and it wouldn't hold anything. the legs kept sliding. I though it was faulty until I realized the brackets needed to be tightened. It works great now.
What a great, fun and honest video! I will probably be buying this one somewhere in the next couple of months. Excited to check more out more of your videos.
Man I've been searching for a cheap video/fluid head tripod for ages now. They're always well into the hundreds when it comes to price ranges. Every time I go tripod hunting, I'm just bombarded with all the consumer level mobile photography style tripods, as companies continue their attempts to make them smaller and lighter (these ofc have their own place and I love these tripods too when practically is necessary). I just couldn't believe that no one wanted to produce an high quality accessible video/fluid head tripod. This seems like the perfect thing for me, thanks so much for making such a great video!
Thanks man! Yeah it’s hard to find one with these features at this price point!
GREAT JOB! thanks for the video, I had ordered mine a couple of hours earlier and you put my mind at peace...!
thanks bro, just purchased. keep up the good work
I got the same tripod when I got my BMPCC4k, awesome value. There are certainly other tripods with fluidheads at around that price point, but none that are as well built as the smallrig AD-01!
Got it for 150,- in a promotion
Yeah I’ve been pretty impressed with it!
Amazing video dude ! Keep up the good work
Thanks!
nice video man°!
Good to know!
Great video!
Heh. I've been playing around indoors with a new camera with no stabilization and shaky hands. I have a decent tripod for photo stuff but quickly realized why video tripods have fluid heads on them and started hunting around for reviews. I can only imagine how much more useful one would be for someone more serious about filmmaking. I don't need something light which seem to be a lot of the 'budget' models so while this is a bit pricier than I had wanted it goes on my shortlist for at the least being a solid unit. Thanks for the review!
Thanks for this: excellent info answering all I wanted to know. I'd been tempted by the Neewer 2 in 1, which is about €50 cheaper, and looks good too but there appear to be some questions, among other reviewers, about its pan function. It seems there is not way to "set" the level of drag in the fluid head. And so, it's hard to get reliably smooth pans. It sounds like its best just locked-off. This Smallrig looks to be good quality though. Thanks again, this was a really helpful review.
Just got mine, your review was great:)
Thanks! I was very impressed with it for the price
You like it?
"I've used tripods, you know, ten times the price of this, um, ah, they, they feel maybe as good as this. Now click my affiliate link!"
Can you take of the head and put it on a glidecam for example?
Is it possible to remove fluid head and attach slider on top?
You deserve more subs ngl
Thanks man
Really love the looks of your video man. What diffusion filter do you use?
Thanks! It’s the moment cinebloom 10%
Hello, does it come with the handle?
Great content I great advice. Would be possible to see some test footage how smooth is the pan and a tilt axis on this tripod. Thanks
Sure, I’ll probably do a second review in a while to see how it’s held up and will put it in there!
@@thomasjmcclure Make two videos :one with a test footage alone, like a camera footage review.
And a second video a review with your thoughts on it ;)
Thanks
I love this tripod but when I try to put a lot of weight on it it does not hold it seems as though the lock is not completely locking. If I didn't want it to be fluid there is no way to stop that?
I just bought this tripod. does the bowl mount can be twist off from the rest of the fluid head? Im trying but not sure if it can or not
I didn’t even know Smallrig made fluidheads. Shoutout to my guy for not only dropping the vid but bringing back the bleached tips as well.
Please tell me, will it hold up well to weight, or will there be an issue if the camera weighs around 4 kilograms? I've read various reviews, and many users claim that it doesn't withstand the manufacturer's stated weight.
My beer can is empty and I remained transfixed until the end of this video. I must have a dozen crippled tripods and lighting stands I've inherited or purchased. Do I really need another? I have never had a fluid-head one yet, so maybe.
Hi man, is this the same as 3751 AD-01? And would this be compatible with t2i(550d)?
How do I get the fluid head to move ? Mine is stuck in the forward position am and it won't pan.
theres a small screw yoou loosen thats on the panning joint of the tripod. it probably arrived already tightened to not move in transport.
@@thomasjmcclure thank you brother.
Another SHADOW VIDEO......OMG!
Don’t get me wrong, I’m thrilled to not have to spend $2,000 on a tripod but I just need to know how they made it this inexpensive. Can I really trust it with a $4,000 camera rig?
That’s really up to you, if you have the budget, and have a brand you’d rather trust, go with that. Peace of mind is important. I personally have had no issues, it’s held up really well. But a manfrotto or something like that may be more reputable.
If you have a 4k camera rig, you shouldn't be looking at 150 dollar worth tripods.. it's not like you gonna use it once, it's the most important accessory to a camera..if you're a videographer
Dark equipment against a dark background makes it difficult to see the equipment and what you're demonstrating. Nice lighting tho.
This tripod is a scam, guys! It's not even close to a fluid-head tripod. There are a lot of Chinese cheap options with better performance than this trash!
I’ve been using it for a year with no issues, still love it. But fair enough if you’ve had a bad personal experience with it. For the money i haven’t seen much better, which ones are you suggesting?
@thomasjmcclure I was going to ask the same thing...what better trash do you recommend than the trash you dislike?
