Might add this to my collection! Thanks for sharing!

I've been using these for years. On every tripod and gimbal and camera I own now. They just work. You do need to screw the base on tight though. But I have cages on my cameras so that's not an issue.

Good review, mate. Well presented and cool to see your testing.

Great review, thank you, this is what I needed to help me make my decision! Looking at photos, I felt like the little locking pin looked weak, I didn’t trust it, so to see someone actually put it through its paces was great! I’m just starting out, and I only really mount to one tripod right now, but being able to switch between handheld and mounted quickly will be such a huge benefit!

Thank you so much for the review! I bought it because of this video 🖤

[AlexanderKiriaki]

Bro showed the pros like it was just a youtube like button only, great video

Those built in tightening screws on other plates are actually a con. They get loose over time and constantly get in the way of the connection.

Payload is impressive but i would be affraid of the 1/4 mount on the camera, for example Fuji threads can rip out quite easily

[davey_gravy]

This looks like a pretty killer piece of equipment, it’s nice the mount is Arca Swiss. Maybe I should get one of these for a gimbal 🤔 thanks for the info!

I found the plate does come loose if you accidentally rotate the camera. The camera effective acts as a large lever. They need to add some barings to the bolt mechanism to keep force applied, like some other the other quick release systems.

[YoungBlaze]

issue with this is the plate under the camera, it keeps coming loose and you have to keep retighten the plate, i wish it had a twist to tighten it under

[YawOwusuNyarko]

A year later, are there any other things you would say are cons? Does the top plate still stay put and not need more tightening?

[stevel]

Great review, but I noticed some items are not all Falcam F38 Quick Release System starting Time 2:37?

[airavearentertainment]

Any chance you could do a review of the Ulanzi Claw?

[YoussefHallouly]

I image you do not own a peak design camera clip, if you do, have you found an alternative to fix the compability problem with those two?

[mrsleannejh]

Ni, thanks for the video…Can you purchase a separate D ring screw on this system?

[robrv]

Hoping you can help....I bought the F38 kit for DJI RS3 and I can't get the Falcam plate to slide into the arm adapter on the RS3. Am I doing something wrong?

[prsm]

does the for pd clip mean that it is completely compatible with it as well?

[unutPr]

what turns me away is that the camera is only attached by 1 screw

[nathang]

I’m curious does the plate feel tight in mount or will the camera have any wiggle after it connects?
