Very easy to use out of the box. Balancing it was no problem. I think this item will allow capturing birds in flight more predictable!

Works great. Well built no problems

One minor improvment needed.

Well built with smooth operation. The vertically sliding plate assembly snugs down securely, but the tightng knob could be engineered better...its just a plastic washer between the knob and the head itself...a little balky. Maybe an additional metal washer will help. A bolt with finer theads would be an improvement as well. Despite this, I'm pleased with my purchase. Paying a lot more for a another brand when the balky knob is an easy fix would not be worth it

An excellent midtier gimbal

Smooth function for all the moving part, and nice and tight when locked into place. FYI ... it's big. If you have a less expensive or lighter-duty gimbal you might be surprised at how big it is.

Great Buy

I watched YouTube videos reviewing this gimbal and they were shot on. Great balance, well made, and I am very pleased with this gimbal.

Great so far

It feels solid and moves smoothly. This is my first gimble so I don't having anything to compare to. The knobs are definitely either tight or loose...nothing in between, hence only 4 stars. It would be nice to control the tension a little. Other than that, it's working great.
