Gotta say I'm looking to pick up an Allsteady 5. Looks fantastic at a great price point. Anyone used this in comparison to a Came? Came seems so difficult, Allsteady so easy.

This Allsteady-5pro looks to me like the Came-7500 for $1200. Is there any difference, I don't see any.

I saw the Allsteady posted earlier, and although I got the AllSteady 5, not the 7, I feel I can hopefuly save others a lot of trouble.

I got the Allsteady 5. I didn't come with any manual – or the extra battery I paid an extra 80 bucks for (still exchanging emails with them about this). I finally got the link to a manual after email exchanges and have been working on balancing and trying it out. This thing is not user friendly. I don't know if it's normal (i'm not too experienced with these gimbals) to not have off/on switches on these things, but if you are making it a matter of disconnecting/connecting the battery – make a connection that is strong and feasible for real use. The one on there is tiny and difficult to put together and apart, and you can tell from the weak connection between the cables and connectors that these would barely last a week through location use. Like I said, I'm not very experienced with other gimbals, so maybe this method is normal. But none the less, its not an ergonomical or strong point for the device.

Once you do get it balanced and connect the battery, the results are sporadic. The light turns on and sometimes it takes forever for the motors to engage and be ready for use.... and sometimes it's just seconds. I balanced it and everything, but maybe there's something I'm doing wrong, I have no idea. The action is definitely not smooth either. I'll keep working with it for another day or two and see if I make any progress, and if there support starts responding to me again. I'll try to update, with hopefully positive, news.
