Rated 5 out of 5

Light weight but sturdy

Went from using a monopod with my Nikkor 80-400mm to this gimbal on top of a Gitzo CF tripod. Not only stable, but doesn't weigh that much more. Adjustable for lens size. Excellent range of motion. Has improved my photo sharpness. Great product!

About Jobu Design Jr.3 Deluxe Gimbal Kit with Swing-Arm

The Jobu Design Jr.3 Deluxe Gimbal Kit with Swing-Arm HM-J3D head has a one-piece hollow, cast, heat-treated body that makes it extremely stiff. It is smaller, lighter, smoother and more compact than the previous BWG-J2K head. The quick-release has been integrated into the swing-arm, making the entire gimbal lighter, while increasing the swing-capacity (maximum lens collar foot size can be taller). There's also a premium, custom-designed fluted knob for a better grip.

Quick-release plate is not included. Needle roller bearings allow smoother tilting under heavy loads and better adjustment of friction. Lockout force and overall durability has been improved. It has an overall profile of 9x8" (22.8x20.3cm).
