Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Mains-power only somewhat restricts the unit’s out-of-the-box usability. Spare batteries are inexpensive. Wish it came with a battery. It runs several hours with sony np550 batteries. Also, being able to use sony batteries is what sold me.

Cons

Hot-shoe ball mount is junk! Would not cinch up. It comes with no battery.
