abunda_amazon_reviews These rods are about 0.5-0.25mm smaller than 15mm, which meant that they didn’t fit my intended purpose, to replace the viewfinder rod on an FS7. Also clamps with sharp edges scratch the rods, which I guess is a trade off for the light weight, but still something to be aware of. Things also tend to slip more, so beware of using these for anything other than a mattebox or lens support that holds both rods and doesn’t depend on gripping just one, like a focus motor.;;Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2018;;3.0 out of 5 stars;;Imprecisely manufactured, smaller than standard;;Chris Tipton-king;;/gp/customer-reviews/R20L48UNJQSYEY/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B01M2X9LYF;;;I have purchased a set and when I tightened the clamp the rods would fall off. At first I thought it was a bad luck so I purchased another pair, but had the same issue. At last I put Lanparte 8” rods back, and returned these. I would really like to have 6” carbon fiber rods, but it seems thus is not possible right now.;;Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2019;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;Diameter too short even with other Smallrig products;;Johnny;;/gp/customer-reviews/R12XO7MWTLVY3K/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B01M2X9LYF;;;Somewhat disappointed. Got this specifically for my BMPCC 4K rig for a V-mount battery plate and a follow focus. I just got my Tilta Mini Follow Focus today and when I clamp it into this rail, it rotates around it. I was wondering if it was an issue with the follow focus but then I connected it to another rail and there's no spin on it at all. Tried to clamp it as tight as possible but no bueno.;;Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2020;;2.0 out of 5 stars;;Disappointed;;NDunfiltered;;/gp/customer-reviews/R2PHFS4F5COQAZ/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B01M2X9LYF;;;Always thought, "oh man, I've got to have the real, thick, stainless steel Aaton film camera rails"...these are 1/10th the weight, almost just as sturdy, overall equally as functional as what would cost you hundreds of dollars for the real deal.

Eagon;;/gp/customer-reviews/R9Y537FY49SIP/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B01M2X9LYF;;;The carbon rods are certainly strong and made very well, yet I had a hard time with single devices rolling on one bar as locking any device onto a single rail couldn't find any grip. I just couldn't get it tight enough no matter how hard I tightened it. For example, getting my remote follow focus to lock down on only one bar simply wasn't successful. If they are used as lightweight support bars that can have two points of contact between the bars then they are fantastic.;;Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2018;;3.0 out of 5 stars;;If they are used as lightweight support bars that can have two points of contact between the bars then they are fantastic.;;zach murphy;;/gp/customer-reviews/R1EFS6Z8VARXAY/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B01M2X9LYF;;;I have used SmallRig on my GH4 and my EVA1. My EVA1 is outfitted with their camera cage, rail system, lens support, battery mount, and evf mount. All the gear works perfectly with the EVA1 and the price is perfect. Highly recommend SmallRig.

I needed something smaller to make the rig more portable. The eight inches is long enough to allow a follow focus to be attached to the overall setup. Compared to aluminum these carbon fiber rods feel almost weightless. The surface of these rods are a matte / dull surface which allow for better grip when clamping down your gear.;;Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2016;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Strong and Light;;YakovGYP;;/gp/customer-reviews/R3OOV2WXLKZ6ZI/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B01M2X9LYF;;;I was pretty impressed with these Carbon Fiber rods. SmallRig has come a long way in their quality control and it really shows. They look a lot better than the rods that came with my rig as well which is a nice plus! Overall I couldn’t ask for anything more as they have held up for a few months now to heavy use with a lot of weight put on them.;;Reviewed in the United States on December 8, 2017;;5.0 out of 5 stars;;Lightweight and Sturdy;;Josiah;;/gp/customer-reviews/R1IVLFZ2JSBAG6/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B01M2X9LYF
