Works fine with AZ-GTi with minor adjustment
Bought it to use with Skywatcher AZ-GTi mount. The mount has M12 threading but this has M8. Need to buy a M8 to M12 threaded coupler adapter and this works very well. It's a counter weight afterall, no gear feature other than proper threading, locking in place and stay there, which it does very much like, well, a counterweight :) Happy with it.

Não há muito o que se dizer
É um peso cilíndrico, com um buraco no meio e que corre ao redor de uma haste de aço, não há muito o que se dizer a respeito de algo tão simples. Os materiais são bons, a haste é curta, porém com o peso na extremidade mais afastada da rosca, a força de torque é grande. Comprei apenas porque o conjunto apareceu em promoção por menos de 200 reais, cerca da metade do preço médio, e envio grátis. Ainda não testei porque estou esperando chegarem outros componentes da montagem.

Wish it was longer
Worked fine, but I replaced the bar with a threaded bolt to get extra length. Worked well for the entire of the solar eclipse.

Raccord manquant
Pour l'instant j'attends de trouver le raccord manquant car cet objet a un filtage de diamètre m8 et un adaptateur M12 vers M8 devrait etre fournis avec. Ce n'est pas le cas. Dommage.

Needed for heavier dslr setups
I use this with a D850 plus a 200-500mm or a 14mm and it plus the original weight counterbalance both rigs perfectly for the task
