Oben GH-30C Carbon Fiber Gimbal Head
Key Features
  • Load Capacity: 44 lb
  • Height: 9.4"
  • Weight: 2.7 lb
  • Arca-Type Compatible
Featuring durable yet lightweight carbon fiber construction, the GH-30C Carbon Fiber Gimbal Head from Oben is designed to balance a lens and camera along its vertical and horizontal axes. Ideal for shooting moving subjects, such as birds, wildlife, and athletic events, the gimbal head ensures you can use your telephoto or zoom lens to quickly aim and shoot your subject. The unit's built-in fluid motion assures smooth and uniform panning. Unwieldy lenses that are normally too large or heavy to be moved and aimed quickly can be tilted or swiveled effortlessly, and large, easy-to-grip locking knobs and an Arca-type quick release plate allow for swift and secure lens mounting. The GH-30C mounts onto most tripods with a 3/8"-16 threaded stud, and the strong and durable curved main arm supports and balances loads up to 44 lb, so even a large lens feels weightless.

Will support a Sony PXW-V90V video camera?
Asked by: Phil
Absolutely, the load capacity of the gimbal is 44lbs. Getting a longer plate would probably be needed so that you can slide the camera back to allow for the lcd diplay to open fully.

Will the plate accept the RRS LCF-21: Replacement Foot for Nikon?
Asked by: Patrick
The RRS LCF-21 will fit directly on the clamp of the Oben GH-30C Carbon Fiber Gimbal Head. There won't be a reason to use the quick release plate because the RRS LCF-21 already has the arca type dovetail on it to fit on the Oben gimbal head.

Is the suggest accessory Oben QR-53 Long Lens ...

Is the suggest accessory Oben QR-53 Long Lens Quick Release Plate (5.3") really necessary? It comes with an arca swiss fitting.
Asked by: Michael
The answer would depend on which lens you will be using on the camera. If you are using a telephoto lens that has a tripod collar with a short base (such as a 70-200mm lens, a 100-400mm lens or a 150mm/180mm macro lens), the If you are using a large telephoto lens that has a tripod collar with a longer base, or you need a longer plate to give you more room to adjust the camera/lens' center of balance on the gimbal head, then the longer Oben QR-53 Long Lens Quick Release Plate (5.3") may be better suited for your usage needs.
