At this price point, these rods definitely meet or exceed my expectations. Weight and build quality are in line with what I wanted, and they don't break the bank. They come in various sizes to meet your needs, so I think any in this family would do the same.

WOW, these rods are LIGHT. You can barely feel that you're even holding them. The quality is definitely some of the best I've felt when it comes to Rails. My ONLY complaint with these are that they're not threaded so you can't connect any others together. These will be great for adding a D-Tap battery to my rig!

Really love these simple carbon fiber rods. I use these to mount a matt box and my tilta nucleus nano II focus motor to my Sony A9M2 on a rod holding mount. They're lovely and lightweight and at 20cm, just the length I need for my primes in that set up. Bear in mind if buying, that because they're carbon fiber, you cannot extend them as they won't have the screw in ends that allow you to extend like you would with aluminum rods. So make sure you choose the right length well, as you won't be able to adapt them afterwards. But that's the same for all brand of carbon fiber rods. I'm very happy with these being a core of my camera set up. Recommmended.

At right around 8 inches, these rods work perfectly for my setup. Basically, I have a stripped-down version with nothing but the camera, lens and a microphone, and then I have the more beefed-up version with these. Being carbon fiber, they keep the overall setup light. Every ounce counts once you start adding things like the camera cage, baseplate, v-mount battery, top handle, monitor, etc. I have purchased all sizes from 4in to 6in to 10in and 12in. The 8in pair I had for some reason was slightly too large for the baseplate (an off brand) and so I just always used the 10's with a little extra hanging off. I'm glad to finally get the perfect size I need and definitely recommend these Tilta 15mm rods!

In my video rigs I use various lengths of 15mm rods. Mostly these are for a motor I use for power zoom. In the past I've used aluminum rods. I got these to see if I could lighten up my rigs just a bit. The aluminum rods I use are 2.13 grams per centimeter in length. These carbon rods are 1.19 grams per centimeter. This means that for any given length the carbon ones weigh 56% the weight of the aluminum ones. Even though the rods are only a small part of the overall weight of my rig, every little bit of weight savings is appreciated. This comes at a pretty steep increase in cost, so every user needs to decide for themselves if that bit of weight savings is worth it. I cut my 15mm shafts down to the specific lengths I need for a specific lens/camera cage combination. With aluminum I use a bandsaw to cut to rough length, then clean up the cut end with a lathe. For carbon rods, conventional tools won't work. For those I use an abrasive wheeled cutter which was originally for cutting arrow shafts to length. Then clean up the ends with sandpaper.

This is a solid rod system, the only thing is there's no screw threads at the ends, so if you like JOINING them or having the option to join them to extend when the time comes, or just to have an end cap at the end to prevent loose accessories from sliding off, then keep looking. But they are functional and sturdy aside from that.I like threads :(

These are great carbon fiber rods. The big concern with carbon over aluminum is that they'll be too brittle, I can say with a fairly high degree of certainty that these are not brittle. I have a cheese plate (with Vmount battery), arca QR plate and lens support that I set up on this and it had little to no flex. The big test for me was when i installed my grips on the end, this is a good test because they won't lock in if they flex too much. They lock in well and I don't notice any drifting, something that cannot be said for the cheaper carbon fiber rods i purchased elsewhere. I'm able to screw on the grips as tight as i can get it without injuring my hands and I heard no cracking or flexing. I think these rods should be able to handle around 100 lbs before i'd want to switch to steel, I also like that they rounded the ends so they aren't sharp. In the future, i'd like to see an option to have the insides threaded for end caps but that can be tapped pretty easily if need be.
