Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

This allows for smooth use of the setup while photographing moving subjects such as birds taking off or landing. Arca swiss plate is twice as secure as other ones due to two screws especially for those monster 600 f/4 lens.

Head itself seems to be of heavy duty construction. Vertical and horizontal rotation works very smoothly. Very silky movement yet sturdy. I'm very happy with its quality and workmanship.



Cons

The horizontal seems fine, but with the vertical is quite catchy making this unusable for the purpose it was intended. I have a cheaper gimbal that does better vertically, but it has a horizontal issue. Disassembled unit and found very little grease.

    No comparison to trying to hand hold in the same scenario


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I didn’t like the vertical movement of that gimbal so took it apart to clean and regrease


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    That made it a little better but it has a lot of slop when it’s loose
