Aluminum Alloy 360 Degree Panoramic Gimbal Head With 1/4'' Standard Quick Release Plate
SKU: GKF31.033A
Am glad to have chosen this head!
He is solidly made of metal, feels valuable and has a fine hammer finish.
A slight scratching during horizontal rotation has given itself right away.
Practical: adapter from 3/8" to 1/4" tripod thread is included!
Weight: 259.5g with adapter and mounting plate.
The screws turn well and are grippy.
I especially like the locking of the ball: which is designed as a clamp: it does not adjust when tightening and holds even heavy telephoto lenses bombproof with little effort.
The bubble level is practical and sufficiently accurate. Unfortunately, with a large SLR camera mounted, a vertical view from above for adjustment is obscured and you have to look at it from the side. This leads to reading errors in the longitudinal axis (only important for panning panoramas),
but the far more important horizontal alignment (horizon) is cleanly possible.
Clear buy recommendation, price / performance is top!

Exactly what I wanted at a reasonable price. Works as expected, easy to install. This was my first time using a gimbal and it went without any issues at all. Very pleased with my purchase. The delivery was very quick too, thank you K&F

I've been using it for two years now and I'm very satisfied. It is clear that it has a certain weight of its own.
However, it can be made small and easily stowed in a pocket. Needed a stable tripod for my Sony G Master lens. That alone weighs 1.5kg and my old tripod literally gave up. I love the ball head. This makes you flexible and fast. Never again anything else!

I wish it bent 90 degrees in all directions but I knew it didn’t and am satisfied with my purchase.

Holds up my Canon EOS M50 just fine. I also like that it came with an adapter. When I tried to screw the ball head on my tripod, it was too big. I was frustrated as I really needed to use the ball head and I was thinking I had to return it. But then I found the adapter in the package, screwed it into the ball head, then attached to my tripod. Easy peasy.

The installation instructions document is not explicit enough. I spent many hours to find a way to fix the gimbal on my K & F concept tripod. The horizontal pivot wich allow to turn the gimbal 360* left or right is too stiff even when the on/off knob is totally open. The lubricant inside is too thick so in cold temperatures it is impossible to turn the gimbal left or right
