There is no reason why a  well engineered collapsible mount with a 
reasonable diameter bayonet lock inside, like the 90mm f4 macro, should be 
any more wobbly than a bayonet fixing lens to camera junction. Whilst 
expending between collapsed and locked , maybe - IME some are, some aren't - 
but when locked no reason to be wobbly at all.
f4 -is- slow...
