Suptig Tripod Mount Camera Tripod Mount Electric 360 Degree Tripod Head Compatible for Phone, Gopro, DJI osmo, Insta 360 and Digital Cam

From a price point of under $30 dollars you can't go wrong! I will admit it was smaller than I thought it would be, and that may cause it to be a little shaky for time lapse with phones, but if you mount it on a tripod it works flawlessly. The ability to adjust the radius and time is an added plus in creativity and visual effects for later post production. I used it out in the field with a Logictech Mevo PTZ camera system to give a live streaming panorama view of a work site I was on. The weight of the camera and being mounted on a tripod made for a smooth view with no shaking. Battery life could be better (appox 2 hours), but to get selective shots this is a good product from its price point. I may not support heavier DSLR's or gimbals, using just a phone, small camera's (gopro's, pocket cam's etc) you would be hard press to find something better at this price.

It is somewhat easy to use but it does take a little getting used to cycling through the various buttons/functions. The best thing about the Suptig is unlike many others it will go back and forth allowing for a more accurate set up. There are no calibration marks so placing it to get the view you want can be tricky, but once set I have not noticed any drift in the angle as it pans to and fro. I did notice that if your rig is a little on the heavy side (full sized DSLR) it may struggle to keep a smooth movement, best to use with "action cams". Considering the price and flexibility of angle of rotation/speeds/movement choices, this is a very worthwhile piece for your kit. Almost forgot, you can use an ordinary "phone charger" to run it as long as needed/charge the internal battery which will deplete over time (non-use). I have used external battery packs too.

This item arrived quickly and as advertised. Although this was the first time I’d purchased such an item, operation was intuitive and I didn’t need instructions to figure it out. This versatile little gadget allows me to pan back n forth or orbit around at various angles and speeds. The battery could be better. Fully charged, it lasted thru 2 jobs totaling about 3 hours. Far lass than my phone. Definitely worth the price though.

The media could not be loaded. I chose this device based on it's amazing configurability at its price point, only hesitating because others had said it's time lapse results were not smooth.And, as you can see, my time lapse experience wasn't smooth either. (I used a GoPro HERO7 Black Time Lapse at .5 seconds per frame...Suptig set to go back and forth 90 degrees in 30 minutes. Total recorded time ~1 hour.)Now, in fairness to Suptig, it could just be that the way the GoPro chooses frames intersecting sub-optimally with the Suptig's motions. However, part of the reason I am going to return this is that while testing how to set it up (e.g. where does it start a rotation?), it was a bit unreliable (e.g. went beyond the 90 degree angle and got stuck).My thoughts? It is inexpensive. Depending on your use (e.g. wanting to have a camera scan back-and-forth for security reasons), it is a great deal. At its price point you cannot expect the world. :-)

Paired with the extra battery pack this little, glorified egg timer does the job well. Super cost effective for how much you can do with it. I have charged it once and have yet to run it down after 2 evening length shoots. It takes some planning and understanding of all the controls to get the most out of it.

I bought it for time lapse, unfortunately it stops on each degree of rotation, so the result is discreet, you can very easily see stop in each moment of the video. Also when you mount the device on a tripod, if you attach the device well to the tripod mount it won't spin!! You have to keep it loose!! Which may cause vibrations. As a conclusion, don't waste your money by buying it, really it's like a rubbish!

This is a really good addition to throw in the action camera bag to make B-roll shots less boring.Biggest plus side is that it runs while on the micro USB so you can power it with an external battery if you need to ensure a long time-lapse won't kill it.There are three ways that this thing is really limited:1. It realistically only runs clockwise.Of its 4 modes, only one will reverse and swing ccw, but if you adjust any parameter during the move, it starts the timer over again and progresses cw. This means that unless you can hang your camera upside down, all of your shots with this will be left-to-right.2. The smallest movement is 90 degrees.Most of the shots I want are actually less than 90 degrees, like 60, 45, or even 30. To overcome this, I simply let it run and start/stop the camera when it's in the range I want.3. The time is always based on 360 degrees/period. So if you're using 90 degrees, and set time for 10 seconds, it's going to only take 2.5 seconds to hit the 90 degrees. So I have to do some basic calculations just to determine what settings to use for my shot.

Build quality seems pretty work and is heavy enough to be stable and hold a GoPro or phone. Good amount of options in the controls.. but the one downside is you can notice in the video it stammering.
