Great bit of kit to carry heavy long lenses. Useful for wildlife and events like airshows. Having been used to a fluid head tripod which I use for video cameras, I find that correct setting of the balence of the camera/lens is vital, but once this is set the head is absolute brilliant. The down side is that a good sturdy tripod is needed- lightweights are not in the frame.

When you shoot the sports or flying birds with a 300mm f2.8 lens (or bigger) to you worry about it being off-balanced?
Then this is the answer.
Ideal for long, heavy lenses, the GH2 Aluminium Gimbal Head from Benro can hold up to 50 lb, stands 9.5" high, and weighs 3 lb. An Arca-type compatible clamp allows for quick attachment and release of your camera and lens, and a PL100 quick-release plate is included.
A vertical scale and a 360° panoramic scale allow for easy adjustments and repeatable pans, while a large pivot tension knob enables smooth tilts. A separate knob locks the panning motion, for more complete adjustment control.
