Will these compress over time? It'd be a shame to eliminate the vibration only to discover the pads had compressed during the scan.

Have you tried this ?

Isolate It, Sorbothane pads

We bought some, but hadn't any occasion to test them.

Yan, have you been using this Sorbothane pads? What are your impressions?

Do you use the circular: 2.5" diameter, 0.5" Thick, 50 Duro? Do you add more weight to the tripode, like sandbag?

Thank you for sharing it

Roberto

Hi,

You can use smaller and thiner models (0,25" thickness is ok).
They really helped me on vibrating platforms.
I didn't have to add extra weight.
