Aluminum Alloy 360 Degree Panoramic Gimbal Tripod Head with 1/4'' Standard Quick Release Plate
SKU: GKF31.033D
Got this on offer. My first gimbal so nothing to compare it to. Very well made though. Movements are smooth and it's solid too. Bit weighty but that's fine for the price.

Tried one of these that was made of carbon fibre very nice but £200. Bought this for £66 and it does the job just as well. I use it at rowing regattas and so far it’s been a huge help in getting the shots I need. Pros a very smooth action due to the dampers used on both lateral and vertical plains. The weight helps to keep the action smooth. No cons to be honest, or at least I haven’t found anything yet.

Have only tried it a few times, used with a Tamron 150 - 600mm. lens. Works as it should.

Robust but heavy, built with other alloys, it would be lighter but also more expensive; from the image, even if you have the measurements of the dimensions, I had no perception of the dimensions and the weight, but for the equipment that is usually called upon to carry, long telephoto lenses, robustness must be the main quality.
In conclusion, you can't find anything better at 80€.

I bought this K&F Concept pendulum head for my EF 500mm f:4. I don't know which ones are offered by the more renowned brands at €350, or even much more, so I don't have a point of comparison. But I am very happy with this K&F pendulum head. It is stable, smooth, solid, has a good finish and fits my TV perfectly. It is a bit heavy, but with my TV I am no longer within a few hundred grams. The clip supplied with is a bit short and has only one screw which does not properly lock the lens when rotating horizontally. So I bought a better adapted attachment (Mantona AS-100-2M).

Are the manufacturing tolerances perfect? No.
Do they need to be? No.
Is the tradeoff in quality vs price worth it? Absolutely!
I love quality! I absolutely love the feeling of the Wimberley Gimbal Head. But, I am also aware that the price of perfection rises exponentially! And, the price of perfection, in the real world, isn't always always worth it.
Ultimately, this Gimbal Head from K&F Concept is very well made and will function as well as a head that costs hundreds of dollars more.
