my bet would be on the rigid pole models. you wont have that flex in the whole body with it. yes you can still move it side to side(it will have slop) but not as much as the flex rod. my issue is the lights keep dimming on me. i have to constantly keep my hand on the dimmer switch.
and as i said, they all use the exact same resolution. so the "slop" and how it slides in would be the variable. the older models are worse, 720p. i just dont see how in 2024 they havent bumped up the cmos to gather more data. even up to 2mp would double the data gathered. (the higher the mp, the more you can zoom in without pixelization. )
