If you have been frustrated using your current ball-head to support your heavy lenses, then you will find it miraculous how well balanced, simple, and safe the Black widow gimbal (BWG) really is. The Jobu Design Black Widow Gimbal is tough, robust and easy to operate in all kinds of conditions.Special Features Include:
Ergonomically designed, indestructible, thermoplastic clamping knobs. These feature a wide grip and smooth contours that are easy on the hands. The high-profile 6-lobe design allows for ease of use and strong clamping, even with gloves on.
NOW LIGHTER! 2.5lb Total Weight. Keeps your backpack light for travelling.
All weather design. From the hard powder-coated support arm, to the stainless steel shafts, to the black anodized clamp, the finish will endure the worst a photographer can throw at it.
Light weight yet High Strength. Strength and weight are optimized so that the BWG can carry a monster 600 F4 lens, yet be light enough to carry to shooting locations without undue stress on your shoulders.
Maintenance free design. The BWG requires no maintenance for the life of the product. Nylon bushings will never wear out, and heavy-duty waterproof grease is used to create the silky-smooth operation.
The Black Widow Gimbal is Easy to mount to your tripod. You will be up and running in a few minutes of opening the box.
New IMPROVED QR Clamp! The newest version of our CNC-machined clamp allows improved one-handed loading of the Black Widow with automatically opening jaws.
NEW HORIZONTAL LOCKOUT KNOB! The horizontal tilt motion can now be locked out for complete safety. Whether for transporting over your shoulder, or for changing cameras without removing your lens, the NEW lockout knob will stop the head from moving.
