Is this mount wobble normal?

Brand new and I've only just noticed this, gutted if its not normal. Would you mind checking yours please?

There has to be a bit of movement or it wouldn't be demountable, or if tolerances were too tight then it might get stuck in hot weather or something of the sort. I think it is held in place by springs rather than friction so that it is easy to remove and replace.

Hard to tell how much force you are putting on it, but as long as it isn't affecting the video or audio when in use then I would say it is normal.

Have you used the felt pad? I’ll be honest for my 119 V3 , as it slotted in quite firmly I never bothered to check for any wobble but ive certainly not noticed any wobble in recorded footage.

No felt pad for the A129 models, the mount has a better design.

Ah OK wasn’t aware of that.
