Review on 📸 Movo GH800 Carbon Fiber Professional Gimbal Tripod Head - Arca-Swiss Quick-Release Plate - Ideal for Outdoor Bird/Wildlife Photography by James Lapa

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Does the job well. in tripods and monopods

works perfectly. I use with Sigma 150-600 Contemporary. Bought best day (much cheaper), used 3 times for bird hunting. The carbon fiber suspension is very light. Ideal for traveling with the CF Trpod. EDIT: ATTENTION! Arca-Swiss jaws only have one actual jaw to hold the mounting plate. The other side is a 90 degree right angle which does not hold the panel well. You can unscrew the mounting plate from the handle just by turning the plate with your hand! Jaws cannot hold anything heavy while carrying gear on them. Twice this week my Canon 7D with the Sigma 150-600 C has fallen off my head with the gear on and then hit the floor! Dissatisfied. Because of this bad design, I increased the rating to one star. Update: Movo has replaced the bracket and plate and offered additional compensation.

Pros
  • cool
Cons
  • sad packaging
