Why You’ll Love MK IV Heavy Duty Gimbal Head

Constructed with the Best Materials for the Most Heavy Duty Gimbal

  • Stiffer construction; the CNC swing-arm is upgraded from previous generations with a solid billet aluminum horizontal arm offering improved vibration control for large lenses.
  • Rubberized knobs are comfortable and easy on the hands, holding well under cold and wet outdoor conditions.
  • Powdercoat finish on main body and black anodizing on all aluminum parts makes for long term durability.
  • The included 3″ Arca-Swiss style plate is perfect for smaller lenses or camera bodies, and is great to use when practicing right away a gimbal head. Using a custom-fit plate is still recommended, but this plate is a helpful accessory.

Smooth and Seamless Lightweight Design

  • Lightweight design only weighs 2 lbs, 2 oz (1,010 grams); weighs half a pound less than its previous model!
  • Smooth tilt action; integrates a needle bearing system similar to the Junior 3 Deluxe Swing Arm by Jobu Design offering unparalleled smoothness in tilt axis. Even with a large load camera and lens set up, there is virtually zero friction!
  • Friction levels can be easily adjusted to find the best spot for motion control using the main tilt knob.

Recommendations

  • Works with lenses and cameras that weigh up to 15 lbs; 600mm ƒ4 + pro body is no problem!
  • Stiff tripod for using with up to a 25 lb load; 3/8″-16 mounting stud required.
  • Compatible Arca-Swiss style plate for your lens.
  • Lens with a rotating tripod collar; short lenses or wide angle lenses require a wide angle adapter.

What’s Included

  • Surefoot SF-NXK kit quick-release lens plate
  • Allen keys and ¼″-3/8″ adapter bushing
  • Camouflage dust bag for convenient storage and protection
  • Limited 5 year warranty from Jobu Design
