In depth overview of the
Movo THB03 Camouflage Bean Bag
Imagine the feeling of finding that perfect shot with your camera at your side, but the scenario makes using your tripod a pain. By the time you get your tripod stable, the moment has passed and your shot is gone. These types of situations can be frustrating to say the least. Being prepared when shooting outdoors, whether it be stills or video, is important and can prevent many anxiety filled days. The THB Camera Beanbags from Movo are one tool that will help you be prepared for capturing those stable shots in a variety of situations.
When shooting outdoors, we are often using special lenses, specific shutter speeds, or holding the camera for extended periods of time. While a tripod is definitely helpful in these situations, there are those times where the terrain is too rocky, maybe there isn’t enough space to set up a tripod, or maybe your propping the camera up on the side of a wall or vehicle. In these situations and many more, utilizing a camera beanbag with a mounting plate, like the THB series from Movo, can be a game changer.
These camera beanbags come with a mounting plate featuring a 3/8 inch screw, which allows you to attach your favorite tripod head or ballhead. From there you can mount the device of your choice. The size of THB Camera beanbag that you need depends on the device that you will use. With dimensions of 8.5" x 6.5" x 8", the THB01 and THB03 are great for using with smartphones and DSLR Cameras that have a lens less than 800mm. The THB02 and THB04, come in at 12" x 9" x 10" and can be used with DSLR cameras and well as camcorders. Both the the THB01 and THB02 have a “mossy oak” pattern whereas the THB03 and THB04 have a “deep woods” pattern.
Aside from using a ballhead and camera on the THBs, there are a number of other useful applications for these durable beanbags. I have taken two of these and used them as a base for my camera slider, helping me to get stable shots on rough terrain. I have also used them for mounting microphones. This allows me to go hands free and reduce handling noise that can come from holding the microphone or mounting it to my camera that I’m moving around. These are just some of the examples of how you can use the THB camera bean bags, but the possibilities really are endless. Not only are they super useful, but this is one piece of gear that can be a lot of fun to work with as you find new ways the use.
Hi,
Last October I went on a photo safari in Kenya. I was told and was well aware that one of the essential items would be some type of camera support other than a tripod. The first thing that came to mind was a bean bag, something I use religiously in my nature and landscape photography when a tripod isn't practical. Upon digging my trusty old bean bag out I found it to be in pretty poor condition and in need of replacement. I had heard about your products through the "grapevine" so I thought I'd give your fullsized MOVO THB04 a shot and boy was I glad I did.
For two straight weeks from sun up to sundown in fair weather and inclement weather I put the MOVO TBH04 through its paces. The MOVO THB04 rode relentlessly strapped to the roof bars of our LandRover (see photo) and never once showed signs of failure and preformed flawlessly. It was always there giving the required support needed for my 600mm lens giving me the ability to obtain tack sharp images!
The added option in using the head mounting plate gives the product another versatile stability dynamic that is perfect for shooting on the go when weight and space are such precious commodities. Everything fits together in a package that is extremely portable and at the ready when needed.
I was so impressed with the MOVO THB04 that I ordered a junior sized one (MOVO THB 03) to supplement my full sized MOVO THB04 for this year's Safari that I will be embarking on in a little less than two weeks.
I would expect it to preform as well as the larger one.
Thank you for marketing such a durable and practical photographic product.
Regards,
John S
