Just received my P1000 and Ordered this quick release plate today. Amazing stuff and appreciate the work.
I love the time you put into this and explaining every aspect of it. I got my P1000 a month ago. Love it - but the shake makes me crazy! I ordered this from you as soon as I saw your video and it might arrive today! I cannot wait.
Joel, You are mesmerized watching the 3D printer work and I am mesmerized watching you figure out how to get the results you need. Having patience and being willing to stick with a task until it's solved will serve you well in life. I confess my real fascination is with the end product - the actual photography- but watching you go through this process is also enjoyable to watch. You are a gifted young man in so many ways. Kudos to you.
Ordered and it's on the way. The effort and dedication I just watched in the video is absolutely amazing! I hope you're continuing to do great things. Well done Joel!!!
Port Orchard, WA. It sounds like you have solved the problem that Nikon left us with. I watched the video and was impressed by your perseverance and ingenuity. I ordered one. I wish you much success, Thank you!
Just ordered one. Thanks for taking us through the process you endured. Keep on problem solving Joel :)
This THE best product for the P1000! Order & delivery process easy & quick. Amazing product. Thanks Joel!
This is awesome Joel, I just ordered one tonight. Thank you
Joel sells an amazing Plate! arrived to the UK in no time. The design and fit is incredible ,and I'm overjoyed! many thanks Joel 21/2/23
Hi Joel, I have recieved mine a few weeks back and it is perfect, after a long search your plate is god mode on support plates for the P1000, thanks very much and greetings from the Netherlands
Just loved your ingenuity. Thumbs UP!
Just placed an order can’t wait to use it thank you so much for all your hard work. subscriber….
Hi Joel, I deeply appreciate your efforts as I ordered your 3D print off Etsy and the next only alternative was a piece at $150! Thank you for saving me half my money - I really appreciate that. I am excited to see how well it works, the shifting center of mass issue has plaqued many Nikon P1000 users when using a tripod.
I just ordered one of these, but to be honest, I watched the video last night and I was sold, today I ordered one. I love the video.
Hey Joel. Just received the new mount. Very sturdy! Once on the P1000 bottom mount, I fitted my Manfroto mount to that and it's perfect! I've got about 3" of slide so I can get the bulk of the weight back to compensate for the zoom of the barrel. Figures it takes a talented DIY'er to come up with a product that no mfg can! Nice job!
Hey! Yes that is so amazing to hear! Glad to hear that the threaded insert works well with the Manfrotto plate. Thanks so much for the comment!
Amazing works👍
I genuinely admire your perseverance & ingenuity in this endeavour. And as a 54 year old man, Veteran, then Attorney and CEO of several multinational companies but now comfortably retired with an eight figure investment fund, please believe me when I tell you that your mindset and determination will guarantee you success at ANYTHING you want to achieve in life. BELIEVE in yourself, have confidence in yourself and when you know that you have something and that you are right, try try and try again until you achieve it. Sure, you won't always get it right first time, but push on just like you did with this and eventually you will succeed. Now... this little anti-shake clamp for the Nikon P1000 may not bring you your millions, but you keep on applying that grit and tenacity to any good ideas that you have, and I promise you one day you will hit the jackpot. I did... and you will to. Now I'm heading over to Etsy to buy one of your clamps for my Nikon. Good luck to you , young man!
Super impressive!!!!!
Can’t believe Nikon hasn’t fixed this problem. Thanks just ordered one.
Hats off to your hard work 👌👌👍👍
Thank you so much 😀
Hi Joel, I'm Jörg from Frankfurt/Germany and I bought this "camera stabilisation" from you via Etsy-platform this July 2023... ...and what I want so say: Thank you very much for this great tool. Ordering and (fast) delivery was without any problems and the price is also okay and adequate for the effort this tool brings to me. Works very fine and moon and long distance footages mostly looking much better than before. Thanks again and Good Luck for you every times....
Hi Joel, I just got my mount in the mail. I will try it this weekend.
Excellent piece that does the job it’s supposed to do perfectly well- super fast delivery through Etsy which surprised me 3 days if I remember correctly it’s definitely worth buying for sure Thankyou❤️💚👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
You're an ace. I've just bought this from your Etsy store
I am considering buying a P1000. I have 5 3d printers so the first thing I thought of was designing a QR plate. Then I found that Joel has already done the work, and has printed plates available in carbon fiber. I don't want to start printing CF and Joel's price is reasonable. If I decide to buy the camera I will definitely order Joel's plate the next day. If I designed my own it surly take several iterations, field trips, and filament to get it right. Thank you, Joel.
Amazing, do you ship to Australia ?
I have a Nikon p1000 using the mount described in this video along with a heavy duty speaker stand (tripod lower/mono-pole top) with fluid head adapter and a 360 Degree Panoramic Gimbal. It has excellent stability at full zoom. This mount described in this video made all the difference. NOTE: I did apply some small double sided tape to one area to help absorb some of the jitter. I HIGHLY recommend getting this item for your Nikon CoolPix p1000. Thank you for an excellent product. After watching this video I honestly feel like the price is worth twice as much!
Will this help if not using a tripod? I have the same stabilization issue when holding the camera zoomed in - especially while shooting moving animals. Hopefully this will help - ready to place an order if it will! Thanks for taking the time to fix and create this video!
Brian White in Henderson NV here, you are an absolute genius! Thank you! Just ordered one after doing research on stabilization, and a long plate and did a small search here on KZhead and there you are solving the issue and now I feel like I'm in an exclusive club that will soon own the perfect solution for stabilization! I just ordered from your Etsy account! I can't wait to get this! What is the turn around on orders? I need it for the punk rock museum here in Las Vegas asap!
hi Joel. i just ordered 1 & waiting for it's arrival
Would love to get one of these
Just ordered one from you. Thanks for the video, really sold it to me. So much work for you, thanks for sharing. This should make take shots of the Moon without it blurring. Next thing to buy is a star tracker for perhaps Saturn or Jupiter. Fingers crossed.
Great job! 👍 Your hard work pays off. How you make more, so when I get my P1000, I can get my.
Hi Joel, I was thrilled to see that someone finally had a solution for the Nikon P1000 shake. Firstly, when on a tripod do you cancel the Vibration reduction option when using a tripod, and how much is the stabilizer which you are currently making.?
Will you be making more anytime time soon?
How come you didn’t show the results shooting with the camera outside? Or is this a scam?
Hi Joel. I recently purchased your very nice stabilizing release plate for the P1000. Everything works great, so thanks for taking the time to engineer and produce such a nice product. Just one comment: You should radius the corners of the plate a little. They are very sharp as is, and I am reminded of that each time I grab the camera to set up. Thanks again for your time and effort in making this solution.
Thanks for the feedback Paul! Do you mean the front and back of the arca swiss section corners? or the corners of the barrel part where your hand goes? for a quick fix you could definitely sand down the corners to make them a bit smoother.
@@JoelSchat Yes, I meant the front and back of the arca swiss section corners. They are actually very sharp. And yes, I have already sanded them a bit. I just thought I'd pass along the only thing I found that could be better. Thanks again!
thanks, your video is very useful
awesome frikin product ... love mine
Wonderful 👍👍👍
hi friend I bought one from etzy and waiting for its arrival. I will do a video once receive it. hope to have a wonderful filming.
Hi, thanks for your solution idea. If I buy through Etsy, could the delivery address be in Türkiye? If it's not possible, do you have a place on Amazon?
Where is the comparison footage vs. Without the support? Does it really work?
I just subscribed. I bought a P1000 a couple of weeks ago. I would like one of your new mounts .i was wondering the price?
Hi Joel, I bought your camera mount this evening on etsy. I am also interested in buying a sturdy tripod and good head for it. I am open to any good advice or point me to a dealership.
Despues de ver el video directo a etsy para la compra. Muchos exitos
How do we order one?
Bro where I need 1 bad I can't decide on a gimbal stabilizer for portable use tho
Nice video! Can you recommend a decent tripod and arc swiss mount to use with your item? looking to spend probably $200 total what would you recommend?
Thanks Justin, Personally I would not purchase a new tripod with only $200. However there will be some good deals on a used tripod on fb marketplace! I just picked up a solid old used one for $70!
Where can I buy it ?
I just ordered mine! I hope carbon fiber nylon is solid enough! :) Also i need to get a good tripod for it. Is the manfrotto 190go (aluminium) any good for this camera?
Thanks Edward!! I've actually improved the design and got a better printer since this video. It has greatly increased the strength of the product :) I have a friend with the 190go and it seems like a really solid tripod! I think it would do the trick
I just bought a Nikon P1000. It's an amazing camera. For this new product by Joel Schat, to fix the Nikon's P1000 camera shake, has anyone posted another VIDEO somewhere to see the difference in camera shake "with" and "without" this new product? This product is exactly what I am looking for and I am glad I found this video. But now I am also looking for a video that shows the difference in camera shake "with" and "without" this new product. Also, does anyone know the best "tripod" out there for the Nikon P1000? I can't seem to find a good tripod for this camera. Thank you Joel Schat for all your efforts in creating this wonderful product.
It's a good idea for my next video!
Which tripod head / or type works well with this camera and 3d QR for stable vids?
I have the same question.
Sorry. I am from Indonesia. I want to ask how much the price reaches Indonesia. Thank you very much
Hi there, how much for one of your P1000 camera supports that you make/ Shipped to Australia? Thank you.Nigel
Hey John! You can find out the shipping cost through my etsy page, it makes things easy for me with shipping cause I honestly have no clue! www.etsy.com/ca/listing/1011781160/
Why not use a CNC or simply casting bronze?
Ok, I bought it, curious...now to find a good Tripod, I have a Benro iTrip FIT29AIH1, would that do the thing?
Ya that should do the trick! If you are looking to do lots of movement in your videos I would recommend a bit bigger of a tripod with a fluid head video like the S2 or S2Pro from Benro
I dont use digital technology just old self made transformator solder gun(same that is available in stores) that i melt very small portion of plastics..... Soo i use paper as isolator on camera and start melting and connecting drops of plastic on camera. You end with resilt you want .... Its best to put more platic that you need and later polish it with files. You can put steel elements inside for more power when adding drops of plastics.(solderimg with plasitic)...i was made accesories like this for prototype projects from 10 years old ... But ther is need to thinking about what you doing when you doing this.if someone want make it in this method just make some experiments at start...be patient and dont rush. Insert to srew tripod can be abtained from old cameras everyone have them ...or order some adapter and file down not neccery part etc.
Hello Joel... I new watching your youtube, because I have Nikon P1000 and find it stabilities plate. So how and whereI can buy your product. And important thing can you send to Singapore Country that item? Thanks Joel and God Bless you
Hey! Sorry I missed this comment for so long! yes I can ship to Singapore and you can find the product on etsy here: www.etsy.com/listing/1011781160/nikon-p1000-quick-release-plate
I have no issue with its length/ weight but find it over compensates for movement sometimes. The bigger issue is the useless manual focus and the fact it has not got AF with manual override would be useful.
Does the Bracket fit the Neewer 78 pro video tripod ?
You would simply attach the quick release plate from the Newer 78 pro to the bottom of this product using the threaded inserts.
@@JoelSchat thank you ! look out for my order too Belfast !
I purchased your bracket and love it. But, I have one complaint. The edges on the whole bracket are very sharp and it cut my finger. So, I took very fine sandpaper and sanded the edges of the whole bracket. Now it's perfect.
Thanks Ronald! I actually started to notice that as well and have updated the designin september by basically rounding all of the edges to make it a bit less sharp. Seems to have made a big different!
Hi Joel where to order your product
Thanks, you can purchase it here: www.etsy.com/listing/1011781160/nikon-p1000-quick-release-plate
I wonder if this would work for the Nikon P950 ?
I don't think it would. I am trying to get my hands on a P950 to design one made for it but I haven't had any luck yet!
I notice on Etsy you are currently sold out of your product...will this come back in stock?
Back in stock! Thanks for the comment
@@JoelSchat I just ordered one!
How did you get on with selling these mate?
Going well so far! 230 sold on Etsy
Shipping to Poland ????
Worldwide
How do I order it ?
You can order it on Etsy at the link in the description of the video
I used a Manfrotto 293
If it ain't one thing it's another Lol....Do you have any of these parts for sale????
Are you still selling these?
Hey! Yup! They are available for purchase on my Etsy Account. www.etsy.com/ca/listing/1011781160/
sur Amazon je l'achète direct
item is sold out 😢
Will be back in stock on monday :)
I would say I would print it with 100% infill then it is hard for a camera. And petg would be enough. I to similar things for my 210 and 300mm lense on my normal non p1000 camera. For that need to be hard 100% infill is the best
Thanks! Ya I switched over to 100% infill, I find the nylon bends a bit better around the lens barrel than PETG. It would definitely do the trick though!
Joel can you sell me the product you developed for my P1000
Watching someone gets failed 3D prints is a good way to not try yourself
My P1000 was delivered from BC to NS for $8.37. Definitely cannot see myself paying $24 to ship a small piece of $60 carbon fibre. Shipping cost needs much work.
Any advice on how to fix this? Etsy defaults to Canada Post's shipping prices which are very high. Do you know of any service that is cheaper in canada? It's actually crazy because I can ship them to Australia for $12. It makes no sense to me.
Never mind,found the link
,,,,👍❤
Come on, dude, you have shown the whole process, but you didn't show how your camera does work with and without the thing. Could you please share some examples?
I bought one on Etsy and it works really well for me whether shooting wildlife or surfing, stills and video. The stability is amazing and I am so glad I made the decision to spring on your model. I had purchased something similar that was a disappointing experience. Again Joel, thanks for keeping at it as the final product is probably better than anything Nikon would be willing to produce. You have a new fan and a believer.
maybe dont use ballhead tripod. and use fluidhead video tripod
i also love this camera makes me real expert with teh ladies
What a journey! Turned into such an awesome product. Stoked to see what you make next!
