Review: Buen aditamento - Depende mucho si realmente necesitas los 40cm. Muchas veces con unos rods de 20 o máximo 30 puedes sacar el trabajo sin problemas. En mi caso, necesitaba algo más largo para dar soporte a mi lente y también cargar una v-mount. Tener los 40cm me ayudó a dar un balance en el peso, haciendo el rig estable y dando espacio para montar todo lo necesario. El producto, es bueno, metal de buena calidad, funciona para lo que es. ## Features - 【Length】Length of 16 inches / 40cm - 【Diameter】The diameter of the rods is industrial 15mm standard - 【Inner Thread】M12 inner thread on each end of a rod, so that you can use M12 rod end cap (SmallRig 1617) to prevent your accessories sliding from rods - 【Compatibility】Mainly used on camera riser system and filmmaking accessories, such as matte box, follow focus, lens support, etc. - 【High Quality】Made of 6061 aluminum alloy, well finished and precise CNC processing, sturdy and durable ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00AZFX77S | | Audio Recording | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #118,985 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #2,953 in Camera Mounts & Clamps | | Brand | SmallRig | | Color | 16" | | Colour | 16" | | Compatible Devices | Camera | | Compatible devices | Camera | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 461 Reviews | | Folded Size | 17.2 x 1.4 x 0.9 inches | | Folded size | 17.2 x 1.4 x 0.9 inches | | Item Weight | 0.24 Kilograms | | Item weight | 0.24 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | SMALLRIG | | Maximum Weight Recommendation | 107 Grams | | Media Type | Video | | Screen Size | 40 Centimeters | | UPC | 693988067587 | | Unit Count | 2 Count | | Video Capture Format | MP4 | | Video Capture Resolution | 4K (3840 x 2160) | | Viewfinder Type | Electronic viewfinder (EVF) | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Colour:** 16" - **Brand:** SmallRig - **Compatible devices:** Camera - **Item weight:** 0.24 Kilograms - **Folded size:** 17.2 x 1.4 x 0.9 inches ## Images ![16 Inches (40 cm) Black Aluminum Alloy 15mm Rod with M12 Female Thread, Pack of 2 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/5125Jwssz2L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Thread pitch?** A: Hi, Thank you for interesting in SmallRig.
