Aluminum Alloy 360 Degree Panoramic Gimbal Head With 1/4'' Standard Quick Release Plate
SKU: GKF31.033A
Great, sturdy tool. Highly recommend using a strong, heavier grade tripod, as this head is heavier, tending to make the tripod top heavy unless secured. The weight can also be too much for a lighter tripod. The mounting adapter nut will stick on to the tripod unless waxed. This item on its own though is a good , quality purchase!

For its price, it does a decent enough job. It will take some disassembly to fine tune it.

Makes macro photography and tracking wild life much easier than a ball head. I wasn’t sure how much I would use this but after seeing a friend use the one that cost him $90 I figured the reviews on this on were as good or better than the $90 one. I guess a $500 one would be better but not for my occasional use. I attached the gimbal mount onto my ball head and tightens the ball head firmly. I have been using just the gimbal so I may just remove the ball head and attach the gimbal directly to the tripod.

My first attempt at trying to find an inexpensive gimbal head, but was somewhat disappointing.Pros:- Inexpensive- Materials are not bad (sturdy)- Comes with 3/8"-1/4" bushing/adapterCons:- When tilt knob is loosened, gap appears between arm and frame, so arm "slumps" and is no longer horizontal. If you tighten the tilt know, gap disappears, but can no longer tilt.- Tilt motion is stuck unless tilt knob loosened a lot (but then get gap and slumping)- Panning seem not bad, but there is some sticking- Edges are kind of sharp- Knob for opening/closing the Arca-style clamp sticks
