Jobu gimbals (and tripods and monpods) are top notch. The "best" of anything depends on exactly how you're using it. For the biggest lenses, the Leofoto PG-1 equals any of the other large gimbals. For smaller lenses, I think the Jobu Jr Deluxe is the absolute best.

Based on feedback in this thread on Jobu Design, I just ordered the Jr. Deluxe to use on some relatively smaller tele lenses. It will be my first experience using a gimbal as well. The $260 USD price out the door was very compelling! Thanks for the suggestion.


I've used the Jr. 3 Deluxe quite extensively (250K+ images) with 100-400/100-500, 200-600/6.3, and occasionally a 500/4 or lightweight 600/4 lens. I keep a Kirk QR plate on the bottom to swap amongst various tripods and when I want to use a ball head alternatively. https://kirkphoto.com/tripod-monopod-heads/tripod-head-quick-disconnect-system/small-tripod-head-quick-disconnect-system/tripod-head-quick-release-small-plate.html

Found PMG Katana to be most stable followed by RRS PG-02.
