Description

About the Wimberley Gimbal Head IIThe Wimberley Head is a specialized gimbal tripod head for telephoto lenses. Its gimbal head type design allows you to easily support and manipulate very large lenses for tracking birds and animals. Since its introduction in 1991, the Wimberley Head has become the industry standard for serious nature photographers. The Wimberley Head Version II offers the same stiffness, capacity, and fluid movement of the old version in a more compact and lightweight package. The head’s redesigned panning base has zero play, and the pan locking knob has been moved to the side of the head, thus allowing the user to easily operate both knobs with the same hand. New lobed “soft-touch” knobs provide a more comfortable grip and perform better when using gloves. In addition to the above improvements, Wimberley has examined all aspects of the head, tightening tolerances, improving friction materials and so forth. Our goal has been to make this head functionally and aesthetically better in every way than the old version and competing products.

    • Great for birds
Size: WH-200
At first I was unsure if I really needed this gear. I was walking around handholding my rf100-500 on canon r5 and getting some nice shots. I purchased this gimbal because so many websites said it was great for bird photography. I echo everything they say. This gimbal is well built, easy to use, and very usefull. Photographing birds in flight was instantly 10x better. Both in terms of ease of tracking and desire to continue shooting (cause the weight is on the tripod and not my arms). Setting it up is very easy and even if you do it wrong it'll still improve your shots. It is very durable. You may need to purchase a lens foot if you dont already have one for your lens. Their website makes it easy to find. The only thing I find annoying is the weight. I have a carbon fiber tripod, and wanting to use this gimbal means I have to carry both the tripod and gimbal out into the field. It starts feeling really heavy after a few miles. ... show more

Review Image by AdirondackKid AdirondackKid
I was really struggling to take pictures of wildlife with my heavy 200-500 mm lens mounted on a ball head. If you loosen it to follow something, it's all over the place ... very hard to control. If you tighten it a bit to minimize the movement, it still doesn't help. I always worried about it being tight enough if I wanted to walk away for a minute, because if it wasn't tight enough the camera lens would lurch forward and possibly damage the lens or camera. I like trying to get photos of Roseate Terns (and other birds) on the harbor where I live. These birds fly fast, turn fast, and when they see a fish, they're like a kamikazi ... they dive straight down into the water. I always had trouble getting them at the right point in time, and if I did catch one, the photo wouldn't be level. The Wimberly Gimbal is very sturdy, takes all the weight off the camera, and allows for smooth panning up and down and sideways while keeping the camera level. I love how fluid it is, and if you clamp it down just a little, the camera and lens will stay where it is aimed from a vertical standpoint, but you can still move it in a different direction any time you want. It's a bit expensive, but worth every penny in my book. ... show more

    • The Most Professional Gimbal Head. Period
Size: WH-200
The Wimberley Head Version II is nothing short of sheer perfection. I owned a cheaper and non-American made gimbal head in the past with many frustrating annoyances such as: cheap knobs, stiff base for turn left and right, no space to place hand on grip bar, and poor weight distribution system. With the Wimberley Head II, all my annoyances has disappeared. 1) The build is quality is strong, sturdy and professional in every way. Every piece, and bolt is built with the highest workmanship. 2) The turning base is very fluid and allows an almost 'weight less' freedom of movement 3) The handle bar allows one to place their hand for extra support. If you are right handed, it is best to use the handle bar on your left side. I presume the opposite for left handed individuals. 4) The weight distribution system is so accurate. Regardless of the weight of your lens, camera combo setup, all you have to do is slightly release the clamp plate and simply move either forward or backwards dependent on whether your lens too much forward or too much backwards. Do not forget to tighten clamp plate knob. I understand the price is high, but you will not be disappointed. Once you go with the best, you will forgot the rest. Thank you for reading! ... show more

    • Wish I'd bought the WH-200, in the first place, rubberized knobs, solidly bilt, perfect performance.
Size: WH-200
Had been using a cheap Gimbal head, it worked perfectly panning or slightly, tilting up or down, but if you had to tilt upwards or downwards more that a bit, the image was no longer centered or squared it would tilt the image left or right, was frustrating, and had to put the image in my editor and level the photo, lots of extra work, basically, I stopped using it... Took the new WH-200 out today for the first time, and, WOW, what a difference, installs easily, if you have a small thread on your tripod you will need to get that larger screw thread to fit over your existing one, as I had already gone through this with my cheap Gimbal, I had that correct thread to screw the WH-200 into, was sort of disappointed that this item was not included in the box. The Wimberley WH-200 II is worth every cent in my opinion, I noticed the seemingly rubberized knobs, which I'm sure to appreciate this winter, the metal knobs, like on my cheap gimbal were very cold last winter. Your hands grip the rubberized ones securely, so-to-speak, as compared to metal. This is an expensive Gimbal, and will bother me for a while, as I'm always looking for that lowest price, however, I will have to admit, "You get what you pay for..." ... show more

    • Nice product!
Size: WH-200
Excellent product! Very well made and camera movement is very smooth with this device. It cost a bit more than some of the cheap ones out there BUT it’s worth every penny. I would trust this producer with my expensive equipment.

I prefer using my gimbal as opposed to my geared ball head. It is easy to use and is sturdy. Get yourself this gimbal.

I use this for Birds, Wildlife and Landscape. It's amazing. Sturdy. Easy to use. Well made. I don't need to use it for landscape but it saves switching out the heads. It truly makes tracking birds and wildlife MUCH easier.

    • Not as smooth as promised
Size: WH-200
So I purchased this thinking it would be a game changer however it is overpriced and it is not as smooth I expected it to be, after watching several YouTube videos on it I wonder if maybe I received a defective one. Build quality is solid but the spin and up and down is a bit stiff almost like it needs better lubricant. ... show more
