3. The TW with only the pin hole mounted is very light. This lack of mass will allow any physical tremor from the shooter's body to show up on film. This is true in firearms target shooting where rifles intended only for competition are more massive than any rifle intended for the field. The same applies to photography to some extent.
I carry my TW-90 (90/6.8 Angulon) in a shoulder bag and it is quick to get into action, but always look for something to lean against or brace it on . . .even a walking-stick/monopod.
