Monopod Gimbal Head – Side Saddle Speed Tilt with Arca-Swiss Dovetail Quick Release Plate | Supports Medium & Telephoto Lenses | Max Load 100lbs

Works great with my monopod , using 600 f6.3

Wasn't sure if this was going to suit my purpose. I use a mirrorless camera with a 150-600 zoom and this, combined with a strong enough monopod is perfect. Is it as stable as a tripod? No. But it is much easier to carry around when I also have my binoculars and spotting scope. Plus, it carries over the shoulder well with the camera attached (even though the instructions tell you not to do this).

Excelente, es notablemente más liviano que el cardán que tengo, además ocupa mucho menos espacio. Le adapté un agarre en "L" y me fabriqué un mini Cardán. Es robusto y de calidad. El precio es inmejorable. Lo utilizo para fotografiar aves.

I have used this for nearly 50 hours with only one malfunction that was my fault and had nothing to do with the quality of the product. This is exclusively for my 200-500 Nikon lens on a D750. I carry this in variable conditions including rain. I have no question as to whether this works. It is smooth and easy to point my camera where I want it when I want. I can let go of my camera and it stays where I have it locked or spins to an upright position if I don’t. I leave my lens slightly rear heavy so if I let go while loose the camera spins to a lower position.I do not see replacing this unless I leave it somewhere by mistake. This thing was worth my money.

Super way to mount a camera with a large telephoto lens on a monopod. Easy to carry and use out in the field.

Working well with a fairly large lens, great for monpod use and a good way to cut down on gimbal size when you dont need horizontal gimbaling.

I recently got the Mono Gimbal Head, Side Saddle Speed/Sports Monopod Tilt Head, and I am really happy with it. When paired with a fluid head, it allowed me to get buttery smooth orbit shots of my subject, which looked great! The included quick release plate is super handy for quickly securing and removing my camera, making it easy to switch between setups.I also like the current price point. It’s a bit lower than another more expensive option I was considering, and it seems to work just as well. Overall, it’s a solid piece of gear that feels sturdy and reliable.If anything changes or I find any issues, I’ll be sure to update this review. For now, I think it’s a great choice for anyone needing a reliable gimbal head for long telephoto lenses.

I was trying to find something lightweight, and when I received it I was surprised with how beefy it was. I do like it, but it made me realize I should have been paying attention to the weight figure.
