Easyrig Minimax STABIL Light vs mantis what's the difference pro tips I want selfie happy founder

The Easyrig founder was at BIRTV, and the useful part is not the selfie. A rubber-band copy and the spring arm do the same job with different mechanics. The new arm locks at one 90-degree position. Tension is two knobs, set to camera weight and how much bounce you want. He flags copies, including one called Mini Max, which the founder calls very bad. The tip that matters: do not let the rig float the whole camera. Loosen the tension so some weight stays in your hands. That kills the hard stop when you drop from high to low in one move, and walking feels smoother. They handed over the last Sweden t-shirt. If your Easyrig slams at the bottom of a move, watch this before you buy another arm.
