Product Highlights
- For Wimberley Head Version II (WH-200)
- Enables Side-Mounting Your Lens
- Easy 2-Step Conversion Back and Forth
- Vertical Arca-Swiss-Style QR Clamp
- For Slimmer Profile and Reduced Weight
The Wimberley CK-100 Sidemount Conversion Kit allows you to replace the swinging gimbal arm and Arca-style quick-release platform of the Wimberley Head Version II (WH-200) with a side-mounted Wimberley quick-release clamp, effectively turning it into the WH-200-S Sidemount Wimberley Head.
This enables you to side-mount your lens, which results in a head with a slimmer profile that weighs almost a pound less than the classic Wimberley Head. To make the conversion, just unscrew two screws using the supplied Allen key and remove the gimbal arm & platform, then screw in the CK-100 piece, a vertically oriented Arca-Swiss-style platform that's 2.5" wide. (To switch back to the classic Wimberley Head, simply reverse the process.)

| Weight | 0.31 lb (0.14 kg) |

Comments about Wimberley CK-100 Sidemount Conversion Kit:
Easy to install replacing the arm on the Wimberley gimbal head. Makes the overall size smaller so it is easy to pack. Hard to say if it makes the head harder or easier to use. I am mostly interested in reducing size and weight of my gear when traveling.One new but odd usage I have found. I with the CK-100 installed, a RRS Heavy Duty Monopod Head can be mounted in the CK-100 and then a camera with a short lens mounted in the RRS HDMH. Gives you a different set of controls from a ball head, with a lot of flexibility and easy conversion between horizontal and vertical. Not necessarily better than a ball head. Just different and another option to consider.
