About this item

A Flashpoint Gimbal Head is used with lenses that are too long or heavy to be supported by a standard style ball head. There are separate locking controls for vertical and horizontal movements and the drag control allows for better control when panning. Comes complete with a 2-3/4" quick release plate.

Mounts on 3/8" tripod screw.
