Update 2024/06/04: MOVMAX/VAXIS has responded via Email and will send a replacement tightening arm. I suspect this issue could potentially happen again as the durability of the clamp teeth is very poor. They would have to re-design the clamp handle or possibly CNC it entirely out of a stronger material for the internal teeth inside. MOVMAX/VAXIS seems to be able to iterate and turn-over new designs quick, as evidenced by the Hoop-Connector release, so I hope they redevelops this particular weak-point of an otherwise amazing product.
Your video shows accurate and very honest results that many cinematographers around the world would prefer to avoid spending their money on. Thank you so much for your courage and for sharing. This product has a somewhat lacking logical structure. Typically, a camera's shock absorbers need to work with springs and air suspension to ensure smooth return and extension. However, we appreciate that it can protect the camera from impacts. The footage captured by the owner of this video identified a very significant technical issue. We confirmed that the MOVMAX arm absorbs all the impact from the uneven road surface and transfers it to the small and delicate body of the OSMO Pocket. As a result, the gimbal’s most important basic function-stabilization-often appears to be temporarily disabled due to the road surface impacts transmitted by the MOVMAX. I don't think this product is worth buying.
Agreed. This doesn't replace a Tilta Alien x DJI RS4 Pro set-up. But it comes close with bang-for-the-buck value and a low barrier to entry price-point and ease of set-up/use.
You're not wrong. When I edited the video, I thought it was important to also note what I witnessed on the Osmo. I've edited the video title and thumbnail so it accurately reflects the footage! Thanks for watching!

Damn best test I’ve seen so far. Super clean footage man. 🙏🏾
Your footage is beautiful! What do you do to it to get it looking so cinematic?
I shoot in D-LOG!

The focus shift is an Osmo issue and doesn’t have to do with the Movmax.
