Adapter compatibility between Tiffen G-70 arm and VZ Pro gimbal
16 years old. Gear and prices may have changed since.
What the thread found
- The Tiffen G-70 arm has 3/4 inch diameter posts while the VZ Pro gimbal uses 5/8 inch posts
- Tiffen part number 800-7204-03 is designed as an adapter between G-70 and 5/8 inch gimbal connections
- The standard adapter may have insufficient post length for proper fit with the VZ Pro gimbal
- GPI previously manufactured delrin sleeves that could adapt different arm post sizes
Depends on
- The adapter post length issue was reported but not fully resolved in this thread
- Suggested workarounds such as contacting manufacturers directly were recommended but no final solution was documented
- Information about alternative adapters from other manufacturers was mentioned but not detailed
