Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Does this head have adjustable friction on the pan and tilt axis or is it either locked or unlocked?

A: It has adjustable friction. You can adjust it quite precisely.

Q: 2. What's the best way to balance a lens that zooms externally like the Fuji Xf 100-400mm?

A: With an externally zooming lens on the Jobu Design BWG-J3K Jobu Jr.3 Gimbal Kit with Swing-Arm HM-J2 it would be best to rebalance every time you adjust the zoom on the lens. It may be best to mark off on the plate you are using set points for different points in the zoom.

Q: 3. I have used this head for about three years. Now, the screw on the plate that clamps the foot on the camera will NOT screw in far enough to hold the foot on the camera lens. I have removed the screw, oiled it, and tried many times. I can physically push the clamp plate all the way in, so the springs are not in the way. How can I fix this so I can use this head again?

A: Is there any damage on the screw threads? That might be preventing it from going in all the way.

Q: 4. Can this be used with Nikon D7100 and the Tamron 150-600 lens?

A: My D810 with MB-D12 and Nikon 200-500mm live on this thing. It's rock solid and works flawlessly.

Q: 5. It says compatible with most Arca Swiss plates. My Olympus 300 PRO has the Arca Swiss dovetail machined in the lens collar foot. Is this gimbal clamp compatible with my lens?

A: Yes the Jobu clamp on the gimbal is Arca compatible.

Q: 6. Does this Gimbal head NOT come with a plate?

A: The Jobu gimbal does not come with a plate. You need to purchase the correct plate length for the lens you will mount on the gimbal.

Q: 7. Will this head works for my Sigma 150-600mm 5-6.3 Sports lens, which is the Sports Model weighing over 6 lb. by itself, plus the camera body ?

A: I use it with a Tamron 150-600 and a Canon 70D with battery pack and it is smooth as glass. You should have no problems at all with your Sigma.

Q: 8. would QR plate from Induro Gimbal work with this head?

A: Probably, if it is a standard Arca QR plate. I use one of these: Desmond DTB-60 Quick Release Plate (60mm). It works fine.

Q: 9. I will be using this gimbal with a Sigma 150-600 tele lens. Do I need to get an extra long plate?

A: Yes, I did 4 from B&H, works great!

Q: 10. Has anybody used this with a Nikon d300, battery pack, and 400mm 3.5 with teleconverter? Weighs a little under 10lbs.

A: Not your specific configuration, but I have been using it with a Canon 7Dii camera and a 100-400mm lens and also with a Tamron 150-600. The only problem I have had is the balance when I change from 100 to the full reach, but that should be expected; I just modify the balance arrangement and it works fine. I plan on using the camera with a rented 500mm in June. So far, I have been very pleased with this gimbal head.
