    The Action Camera Stabilizer does an excellent job with a Olympus TG-4 point and shoot camera. Videos movement is minimal and smooth when shooting on the move. Also did a great job taking panorama photos. Great addition to the camera bag.

    So the reason why I am deducting a star is due to not enough instruction as to how to use it. I still have no idea how to use it. I tried adding and subtracting weight and it still wobbles. Can't get it to steady the shot. Other than that, it is packaged well, it comes in a handy carrying case, it's small and it's nice looking. I recommend it if you used a stabilizer before. Otherwise, you might be confused as I am and the product will just sit in storage like mine.

    Upon opening the box, I realized that this is clearly made for use with smaller devices, like smartphones or action cams. With that in mind, it works great. Would have given it 5 stars if I didn't have to grease the gimbal to make things move more smoothly. Other than that, great product for a great price.

    Great stabalizer for beginners! It keeps the camra steady with little to none shaking. Great for slow walking and panarama shots, not so good for running.

    Poor Man's Steady Cam

    This stabilizer turned my GroPro into a poor man's Steady Cam. The video has always vertical both side to side and back and forth. It was extremely easy to balance. I now take this stabilizer with me all the time. The price was right...you could not make one for the price...I tried.

    I bought this for my son who is trying to get into film making, and the only reason I got it was it was on a huge clearance (70% off). After playing around with it, I can say that it works ok but there still seems to be a lot of wobble. I can't imagine paying $60 for this, but at the reduced price I think it's a pretty good deal and worth trying out.

    Needed an inexpensive solution... this is it. Easy to balance and use with my gopro. Videos look more stable than what I could do holding the camera directly or on a stick.

    Love this product! I can shift the camera from side to side and forward and backwards without having any shaky videos. I would recommend this for anyone who is trying to capture great videos on the go.

    This is great if you're gonna make a few clips of cars or other sorts however it's not the best. This will slightly reduce the shaking and also help the stability. it's no gimbal this just helps to have a steadier hand you won't be able to take it on extreme adventures such as sking and snowboarding and get a clean steady picture. For how cheap it was I'd recommend it.

    after mounting the camera, it took about an hour to get it stabilized. there didn't seem to be enough weights to counter the weight of the camera. We ended up returning this.

    After being frustrated by the noticeable instability I could see in my videos, I decided that the anti-shake features on my video sources were insufficient. I had researched several options online but decided to try this device when I saw it in a Best Buy store (it never occurred to me that there might be an affordable retail option!). It was very simple to setup with a bubble-level on top to insure the camera is perfectly balanced. Note: It takes a little practice to get used to holding your camera by way of this device - but that's the whole point: letting the device balance your camera. Let it go.

    This is a must if you buy a Go Pro. We did a walking tour and used the stabilizer. We were able to video tape while walking and the video came out as if we were standing still.
