GH-30

Gimbal Head

You’reonsteadyground

Thank You for choosingOben!

The Oben GH-30 is a gimbal-type tripod head

designed to balance a lens along its vertical and

horizontal axes. The GH-30 mounts onto most tripods

with a 3/8-inch threaded stud and is ideal for wildlife

or sports photography. This gimbal head is designed

to ensure that photographers can quickly achieve the

precise position to capture the desired subject, even

with a heavy lens. Lenses that are large or heavy

enough to aect quick moving and aiming can be

tilted or swiveled eortlessly and remain securely in

place once positioned.

Engineered with a strong and durable curved

aluminum main arm, the GH-30 supports up to 44

pounds, yet balances the load so that even a large

lens feels weightless. An arca-type quick-release

plate is included for swift and secure camera

mounting, and it’s designed with safety pins to

assure the security of your lens so it won’t slip o of

the head.

OPERATION

The Arca-type quick-release plate has two 1/4-

inch mounting screws that attach to most lens

collars. Two 3/8-inch bushings are included, in

case the lens collar has 3/8-inch sockets.

Warning: Always hold the camera and lens while

following the attaching and balancing instructions.

Attach the screws of the quick-release plate

with the D-rings, and then tighten them

with a coin or slotted screwdriver.

Mountinga Lens

OPERATION

1. Tighten the swinging arm lock,

panning lock, and platform

adjustment knob, and make

sure they are secure.

2. Loosen the plate release

lock, and place the QR plate

and lens assembly into the

grooves of the plate platform.

3. Make sure the QR plate is

seated properly in the plate

platform, and tighten the plate

release lock until secure.

The correct balance is achieved when the lens and

camera can be tilted at any angle—up or down—and

remain in place. With the proper balance, the lens can

be moved eortlessly, and it will stay pointed in any

position without locking the swinging arm.

Follow these steps to balance the camera and lens on

the gimbal head:

Horizontal Balance

1. Tighten all locking knobs so the camera and lens

won’t accidentally move when mounted on the

gimbal.

2.Loosen the plate release lock, and adjust the

horizontal balance of the camera and lens.

Tighten the plate release lock until secure before

proceeding.

3.Loosen the swinging arm lock, and tilt the lens up

and then down at a 45° angle. If the lens wants to

return to a center position, the camera and lens are

horizontally balanced.

OPERATION

Vertical Balance

1. Loosen the platform adjustment knob, and adjust the height

to vertically align the center of the lens with the axis of the

tension control knob. Retighten the platform adjustment

knob after every adjustment.

2.After each adjustment, test the balance by pointing the

lens up and down. If the lens and camera can be tilted at

any angle and remain in place, they are now vertically and

horizontally balanced.

ProTips

•For each setup, use masking tape or a grease pencil to

note the position on the swinging arm and along the

QR plate. This will make balancing the camera and

lens much faster in the future.

• To maximize image sharpness, support the camera

with your right hand while resting your left hand on

the front third of the lens.

!Warning:

• Please read and follow these instructions,

and keep this manual in a safe place.

• Do not attempt to attach the base head to a

tripod with the camera attached.

• Remove the camera and lens from the head

during setup or transport.

• Do not exceed the head’s maximum load

capacity of 44 pounds (20 kg).

• Ensure that all appropriate locks are

engaged when necessary.
