Pros & Cons

Pros

My experience with these shock mounts confirms the good reviews they have on the web. Used recently at the world famous icehouse in a crowded room. My only concern is durability.

The movo smm5 noticeably reduces handling (aka mechanically transferred) noise. The best part is that my zoom recorder didn't pick up any extraneous noises when recording through physical movement. The shock mount itself feels a little delicate, but p...  Read More



Cons

The mount is not strong enough to hold a zoom h6/h8 even though they're listed as compatible devices. The mounting screw for the recorder is standard 1/4-20 (standard for camera gear) i simply can't mount it on my nikon z6 ii.

I like how easy it was to use, but disliked its usefulness. Its moderately priced. Do not recommend.

The mount is very weak. It just flops about and is not functional for my setup. Using it strapped on to my camera in hand or on my shoulder rig, every step i take it wobbles up and down.

Quality


This was my first movo purchase and i will say im very pleased with the quality


I was very impressed by the quality of this product


Could have been better with the material and design


With the mount the conical zoom and a dead cat windscreen its a pretty comical looking rig but that is completely beside the point

Packaging/appearance


I use my smm5s mounted on a tripod ball head so a tiny 3834 to 1434 bushing would be a better alternative to the included bulki...  Read More

Competitiveness

This allows me more versitility with my video rig


Its also better for your cameras hotshoe

    Could hear the vibration postproduction which is so disappointing


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    When purchasing the zoom h1n recorder i had a choice of choosing a rigid onepiece mount for my digital camera or this movo smm5b


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I chose the latter because i wanted the flexibility of being able to position the recorder forward or backward relative to the camera


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The best part is that my zoom recorder didnt pick up any extraneous noises when recording through physical movement


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    If i hooked it up directly to the shoe it would make some bumping noises


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I bought this because it claims to work with not only the zoom h1n but the zoom h6


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    While it technically 34fits34 the h6 this shock mount does not handle the weight of the h6 well at all
