Controls and movements are very simple. Very stable and easy to manipulate.

Somewhat heavy Pricey-head alone is expensive and then the additional brackets need to be added in.

I traded in mycanon 500mm/4L IS for the 600mm version and at the same time purchased the wimb head. I had used the sidekick in the past. This is an outstanding device that i highly recommend for any serious wildlife photographers. I am happy with my decision to use this head with my big lens.

Customer Service

I had a long conversation with the owner before making my purchase and he was extremely helpful. He was not pushy and really seemed honest with his opinions.

The absolutely best tripod head for big glass.

None.

It's big, it's heavy, but it is absolutely fantastic. Mount a 600/f.4 and take this beauty for a spin and you'll never go back to a ball head again. Wemberly recommends using it on 400/f2.8 and bigger lenses, but I've used it with a 300/3.8 and F5 or D1H with great results. Following the action was never easy. Once you balance the setup, it moves with silk-like smoothness. Get the quick-release clamp. It'll save lots of time and give a very secure connection.

Customer Service

Hve never needed service, but customer support has been wonderful. Great company!
