However, after some time, I encountered issues with its durability, particularly with the construction of the ring connection. The ring lock, designed to secure the camera in place, failed. This issue appears to stem from the construction of the connection between the two rings, which relies on small grooves that seem not to be very sturdy. As a result, the two rings of the device separated, leaving the camera and lens dangling from the ring connected to the tripod. While the lens/camera usually remains within the ring attached to the tripod for most lenses, the two rings can be reconnected but are prone to separating again with even minor movements. This design flaw renders the device effectively unusable.

Sadly Sigma MC-11 is not compatible, it won’t fit.
