GKJr. Katana Junior Telephoto Lens Gimbal Head for Telephoto Lenses Wildlife Sports Photography

An excellent gimbal head which didn't disappoint. I have used it very successfully photographing sea birds in flight this last week. I had seen reviews that rated it the best gimbal for long lensesand so I felt confident buying it unseen.What impressed me so much was the speed of delivery and also the excellent customer service. I had to contact Pro Media Gear directly, regarding a problem I was having. They answered immediately and were very helpful, and incredibly responsive throughout our correspondences..I thoroughly recommend buying anything from them.

I am amazed at the quality and build of this Gimbal. It will rival the 1k ones out there. As soon as I held it I knew and felt the precision in the build. It moves so smoothly and the knobs hold so well. When locked down my camera does not budge. Camera is heavy with a grip and 2 batteries and a long Sigma lens. when loosened the action is like riding on air. I love this Gimbal and recommend it to anyone who wants a thousand dollar gimbal but does not want to pay that price. Awesome job with this product. A+++++++++

I brought this to support my Olympus EM1X with the Olympus 150-400 Pro lens. Although it is possible to handhold this setup - to do that for 2 - 3 hours at one go - is asking too much. So - much easier to mount it to a Gimbal and let it carry the weight for you.About this GkJr Katana - it is a very nicely engineered Gimbal head. If I just lightly tighten the friction screws - I could add a little bit of resistance to the swivel actions. And also very good support as well - I could send them an email and get a response back within a day (I am across the Pacific Ocean).

Light, strong and works exceptionally well. Smooth operation.

Never likes tripod and gimbal though I had them. designed only to hold a long lens with foot, but not designed to hold the camera body with the adapter.This is 1 lbs less than previous carbon unit. Most importantly stability .. once set in place your long lens and camera stays in place …. no need to constantly tighten or loosen to keep them in place. I’m so glad to spend the money and doing what all gimbal should do

Quality product. Very strong and sturdy. Smooth movement. Love it! I highly recommend!
