Oben Counterweight Reviews

Great inexpensive options for small to medium gear.

Units are small and come with a thread adapter to fit most common sizes. They can be stacked together to help get the weight farther from the center point. I was unsure if the small amount of weight would work but it made a night and day difference in my rig that is evident in the shots I am getting. I am learning handheld operations and even these small weights are making my learning curve easier to manage. Great for small rigs for DSLRs.

Not just for Gimbals!

Event though these weights are marketed for gimbals, there are other creative ways of using these. I used these to balance a desktop tripod. The images I have posted include the 100gram and 50gram options. These are small and easy to carry in my kit, should last a life time! [I have received this product in exchange for my honest review]
