Best gimbal head made today

Mulitple unique features make it the best gimbal head overall. First key feature is the lever that locks the head so if the camera is removed from the lens it keeps it from flipping forward which is great when adding or removing a teleconverter in the field. Second feature is that its fully adjustable and this is done with no need for tools. This makes it easy to get the center axis of the lens at the correct height. Third feature is that it easily breaks down into three pieces which makes it far easier to find places for them in ones carry-on luggage when traveling by plane. No other gimbal head provides these features and at $400 it is a steal.

Used with 150 - 600 sigma sport lens

Used on gitzo tripod with sigma 150 -600 sport lens. Tracks and moves nicely with many adjustments for fine tuning. Even fully locked down though it would move very slightly. Though I think this was tripods fault as this setup was slightly too heavy for tripod and there was 5mph wind gusts. Overall very satisfied with product. Appears to have very good build quality and consistent movements. Would recommend.

About Custom Brackets CB Gimbal

Custom Brackets has once again designed and manufactured a product that is far ahead of its competition. The CB Gimbal is what a gimbal should be. True roller bearing design for the easiest and smoothest movement in all directions. Separate drag adjustment and lock for both horizontal and vertical movement of your lenses using soft rubber coated knobs. All knobs are captive and a bubble level is added to the base for convenience of leveling when needed. A setup lever for the fastest and safest way to balance your long lenses.

The best part of the CB Gimbal is that it's modular. Not only does it disassemble for easy packing in your bag for traveling. The design also allows it to be used as a panoramic head with 360 degree markings for using your camera with a wide angle lens.
