I love geared heads, but not this one (Neewer GM-38)

Geared tripod heads provide unparalleled camera control when you need to align your photo and/or video composition just so. Most geared heads are fairly expensive, but not the new Neewer GM-38. In this video, I cover what a geared head is, how it works, and why (unfortunately) most people should avoid the GM-38. Disclaimer: Neewer provided the GM-38 shown in this video, but have had no editorial input, nor have they paid me to produce this video. All opinions and experiences are my own.
