So I received my Karma Grip today, and I can already safely say the Removu S1 blows it out the water!!
Don't get me wrong, I've only played with the Grip for a few minutes, and it works pretty well - I like the way it directly controls the cameras, switching it on and off with the handgrip, charging it, and so on. Its also very robust, and I must admit I like the design - its sleek and 'neat'.
However, theres no way to lock the pan axis at all. Also the motors make a buzzing noise constantly, which is picked up by the GoPro's audio. The cameras audio is already a little muffled when in the harness, but the motor noise makes it even worse. Not something you will probably notice too much in noisy environments, but certainly something you'll hear when shooting in quieter environments.
Full review to come soon!!
