Customer Review

An eternity I've been looking for a suitable tripod and head for my needs.
I photograph a lot in the Wildlife area, often comes here a Tamron 150-600 on a Nikon used. A sturdy and stable tripod was needed, as is a head wearing my needs and equipment as well as possible future purchases such as fixed focal length can still act.
The Rollei WH10- Gimbal Head I am very satisfied and anticipate short.

He is very solid and processed dibasic. In addition, easily and without any lag etc adjustable. Gentle Mitzieher are therefore no problem.
The friction of the horizontal and vertical movements can be adjusted well and adjust needs and equipment weight well.
The space provided lever and "screws" are big enough and therefore easy to operate. Even when wearing gloves that should be no problem.
What I did not pay for the purchase, but I did not want to miss, is a kind of intervention on the side. Here you can engage well with the hand and lead as desired head. For some situations very helpful. Mainly I put the left hand but the lens and lead.
Since I do not have leveling unit seems to me the small spirit level in the tripod head in handy to be able to align according to the tripod if necessary.
Lots of scales facilitate the work and relist setups. For some, certainly the 360 ​​° scale on the pivot very helpful for panoramic images etc.
The maximum load capacity of 25 kg speaks for itself certainly. Camera, lens, then the resting hand on the lens / tripod head, possibly Tarnausrüstung and so continue to weigh tripod and head up to several kg and the Rollei endures this super.
A little confused, I have the imprints on the tripod head.
Indicated is currently the name Rollei WH -10 Gimbal Head. In the photos here at Amazon you can see the inscription Fotopro WH 30. On my models available also stands Fotopro WH30. On the Rollei website's photos were what the term as far as deviating from the product name, this has now been changed to "Fotopro WH 10" (status 10.12.2014).
In my case, all doubts have been dispelled in this regard. I got what I ordered. It stands just depends what else.
