Pros:I would say everything and for those who make videos I would say even more.
Cons:maybe the weight
Opinion:I come from a gimbal head photoseiki TB 101, certainly a workhorse of the Italian company but has not managed to maintain marketing and assistance. I switched to another famous Italian brand of which I had little satisfaction with an overrated quality / price ratio. I have been using the Gitzo GHFG1 for a year combined with a carbon Gitzo 3530s tripod, perfect coupled to support lenses such as the Canon EF 500 f 4 IS II and the Canon RF 400 2.8 and R5 with battery grip or other. Being a gimbal head with fluid cartridge movements are slow and constant, balanced equipment is a satisfaction to use it especially when you have a precise point does not move anything. It comes with an ark swiss plate excellently executed and with a video lever that can be used both on the left and on the right, a capacity of 8 kg is declared which honestly seems very reduced compared to the capacities of other Sirui Benro heads etc., it has no briefcase or bag but I have obviated with a neoprene cover available in specialized sites. It pays a little weight but with this equipment I do not do wandering hunting.
Opinion:Fantastic, I use it with the Gitzo 5533LS systematic. Even the appearance is much appreciated. It weighs a little but is an unavoidable element for a robust head that has to support powerful canvases. Unfortunately, there is no transport case, which I appreciated for the Photoseiki TB 101. It is only sold with an elegant box.
