ALZO Horizontal Camera Mount, Tripod Accessory for Overhead Product Photography

Works exactly as described. It's very easy to install to the tripod camera plate and the rod slides very easily into the preferred position. You may need to add several water bottle weights if you have a heavier DSLR camera like I have (Canon T5i) but it holds it very easily. I've never experienced bending or anything like that with the heavy camera. The screw threads are plenty long for a secure attachment to the camera. All in all, this was perfect for my filming needs and I love it! I would recommend this for anyone who needs to do overhead shots (planner videos, knitting/sewing demonstrations, etc.)

Not sure if I would trust it with my Canon Rebel on account of the balance issue. The rod is sturdy enough if you can solve the tipping problem.

This arm is exactly what I needed for my table photography. The only good use that I have found for this arm is on a horizontal level and that's all. You can clamp the sides to two stands and slide the center piece from side to side. It well built and not as heavy as it looks but it did pretty well with my Canon 5D MK II with a 16-35mm lens on it and a speedlight. Just don't overload it too much as the center piece mount doesn't seem like it can hold too much weight. Don't lift it up off the table too much in case that the stands and bar fail. You don't want your equipment hitting the floor or table from a high place. Recommended for the price, but if you need to have heavy equipment on it get something more of a heavy duty.

This arm is lightweight so you can't use it with any decent SLRs, but for phone and lightweight digital cameras it's perfect. It's an affordable tripod arm for DIYers who want to set up a cheap home studio recording system.

Works great on my point on shoot camera but kind of tricky with my Canon 60D because of weight issues. Learned how to counterbalance is what I got out of using this. Happy with it thought.

The concept is great and the price is ideal if you don't want or can't drop big bucks on a manfrotto arm for overhead shooting. However if you have a need to extend it out more than half way, you may get some wobbliness even when using counter weights. I bought this to shoot overhead YouTube videos and need to extend it out a bit further because of my set up. I'm now looking to sell this and get a tripod that fits my needs

I love this arm! I use it with a Dolica tripod and it works great. Super sturdy and simple to use. As usual, I looked at a ton of these and read a million reviews. There were many that were priced much higher but I was looking for an economical option, this was it! It does the job and is very easy to operate.

I read the reviews before I purchased and the negative ones were prevalent over positive ones. I needed a bar to take either portrait or floor shots so I took a chance and purchased this product. From the previous reviews I took a different approach to mounting to my Ravelli tripod and Canon camera (EF 24-105 L IS USM Lens). I also purchased a GKGK G07 tripod handle and a Monfrotto screw adapter to attach to this bar. When I put it all together I did experience the looseness other reviewers wrote about so I went to the hardware store and bought some flat and lock washers to solve this problem. I used a level and squared the horizontal and vertical axis and left it be overnight. When I checked in the morning all was still square to both axis. How I connected; flat washers to tripod head connector, removed cushion washer and used lock washer to Monfrotto adapter, lock washer to tripod plate on G07 tripod handle. I hope this works for anyone else who wants to give this bar a try. You will need to use a screwdriver to tighten all connections. You will also need a counterweight when extending more than halfway of bar on tripod and as another reviewer stated a remote shutter release.

A little pricey but does the job well and well worth it. Solid build.

used to hold camera at reach, seems strong and light.

Very useful product for top view photo shoot...
