Wimberley 63products

The Wimberley Head is a specialized tripod head for telephoto lenses. Its gimbal-type design allows you to rotate your lens around its centre of gravity and thus easily manipulate very large lenses. Since its introduction in 1991, the Wimberley Head has become the industry standard for serious nature photographers.

The Wimberley Head Version II offers the same stiffness, capacity, and fluid movement as the old version in a more compact and lightweight package. The head's redesigned panning base has zero play, and the pan locking knob has been moved to the side of the head, thus allowing the user to easily operate both knobs with the same hand.

Design Improvements for Version II

"I thought the old Wimberley Head was good. Then I got the new version, which is even better! ...You've outdone yourselves on this one."  -John Shaw

The Wimberley Head Version II offers the same stiffness, capacity, and fluid movement of the old version in a more compact and lightweight package. The head’s redesigned panning base has zero play, and the pan locking knob has been moved to the side of the head, thus allowing the user to easily operate both knobs with the same hand. New lobed “soft-touch” knobs provide a more comfortable grip and perform better when using gloves.

In addition to the above improvements, Wimberley has examined all aspects of the head, tightening tolerances, improving friction materials and so forth. Our goal has been to make this head functionally and aesthetically better in every way than the old version and competing products.

I've had mine for over 10 years now and seen many other variants in the field. The Wimberley still remains the Rolls Royce of gimbal heads. Easy to set up. Tension screws work as designed and still do! Mainly use it on a footplate but on occasions on my CF tripod.
