Anyone have any experience with using the Acratech GXP as a gimbal on a monopod? How does it compare to the Wimberly mini gimbal? Lenses will be Nikon Z 800 f/6.3 and 180-600 f/6.3. Thanks in advance.
If you would like to post, you'll need to register. Note that if you have a BCG store account, you'll need a new, separate account here (we keep the two sites separate for security purposes).
No experience with the Wimberley, but the Acratech worked fine with light telephoto rig. It's okay as a stopgap if needing telephoto support with a light Commando Kit.Thanks for the sound advice. Does it function well as a monopod gimbal? Any experience in comparison to the Wimberley Monogimbal?
I haven’t used the GXP but have used the earlier GV2. It works fine, lens and camera sit off to one side as with the monogimbal. I have a Kirk QR plate so I can swap between tripod and monopod. I like it better than the Wimberley because the monogimbal only does one thing, albeit very well.Thanks for the sound advice. Does it function well as a monopod gimbal?
