Beautiful piece of engineering. The skeletal frame is well executed, smooth, light weight and functional. Both horizontal and vertical controls are very smooth and have a wide range of control. This may not suit all photographers- some like to lockout within a short twist. Some reviewers say it takes 2-3 turns to lock out. I think this is extreme, I. Normal use from reasonably loose to locked is a turn. And they lock really well. Also, for a gimbal the snout of movement caused by locking is small - even on long lenses. So reframing is less of an issue. (Important if you use for landscapes, not so important for its primary use in wildlife. It is relatively light but still adds to the loaded weight in the tripod, so travel tripods may get wobbly. Terrific product, best in class IMO.

Very sturdy and smooth. Provides ample flexibility for camera and lens balance with telephoto and super telephone primes.

I don't think there is a better gimbal on the market than the ProMediaGear KatanaJr. The Leophoto design was inspired by it. Read the review title and you don't need to guess who has the advantage on price, it is significant. The biggest difference between these two products and almost every other gimbal on the market is how the adjustments are controlled. There is an internal clamping system at the bearings which allows for very fine precise adjustment of tension. All the other gimbals that are inspired by the Wimberly use direct pressure friction on the axel. Easiest way to see the difference is how the adjustment knobs are installed (vertical for the swing arm) vs inline for all the others.The quality and machining are tops. The weight is surprisingly light relative to other products.Most importantly is they didn't scrimp on the quality of the bearings. This product's movement is among the smoothest you will ever find. All you have to do is try it and the feel speaks for itselfThis should be a once in your life type of purchase. You will be gone long before you can wear this out.Highly endorsed. You will never regret this if the fine adjustment is what you want.
