Don't know if they are still available; but actions on it are very smooth, holds large lens very well. Looks great! I couldn't be happier, especially at the price I got it at; less than $300!
Yes, I have one of these as well, It's excellent for the money.
Originally posted by boriscleto I don't think you can get them anymore, at least in the US,
I think I remember maybe a rebranding of them, Sevenoak gimbal seems to ring a bell.
The Movo Gimbals look just like the Wemberly Gimbals. The Sidemount ones are OK, and save on weight, but are harder to correctly balance Lens and camera combos, and put a little extra strain on the lens foot as well, especially if the lens foot is the removable type as on the DFA 150-450, DFA 70-200 and the DA 300. The Foot is designed to support the weight of the lens directly above it, in a vertical position . not holding it out sideways.
