Robert Carter 0 Report post Posted May 15, 2019 After 18 months of use I have noticed a twitch when holding lock off shots when using my Volt. It seems as if there is a kind of electronic movement generated I assume by the kit which shows itself as a twitch or maybe a 'heavy hand' look. Has anyone experienced this? I will be in touch with the guys at Tiffen UK tomorrow morning but and advice is welcome. Thanks, Robert Carter Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deke Keener 10 Report post Posted May 18, 2019 I’ve noticed some chattering if the batteries get low. Kind of a rude low voltage alert. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bryan Trieb SOC 8 Report post Posted June 8, 2019 Any updates to share about this twitching? I demo’d the Volt at Cinegear again. The Tiffen rep mentioned this might happen if the side to side adjustment on the top stage was off a little. Any feedback about this comment? Also there were comments about the Volt box, if it’s not mounted properly with zero vibration possibilities it can also affect the performance consistency.
