Mediocre/disappointing experience so far. Not able to work with it yet..... So only ease of use counts.

In use for a few months now, definitely takes some getting used to. Mainly used with Canon Eos M50. Bluetooth connection with my camera, saw various messages about this but it works. Also great with iPhone. I am really satisfied, definitely need to practice a lot. Also want to practice with my (heavier) Sony camera. In short, definitely worth the money.
